Can we plz get rid of the addon that begs for loot!

Can we plz get rid of that Addon that automatically begs for loot? I have seen it so many times lately a scripted /w asking if i need that item? It’s the same message i gotten from various of players in the recent months. If you are to lazy to write a normal message to me when asking for loot then i’m not giving you that item.

They can make a macro that does the same thing only requires 2 key presses “removing” the addon won’t solve it. Also they can’t remove a single addon, they can change the API so it won’t be allowed but it will probably break other addons that give automated messages.

Its so lazy its disgusting I know, I’ve never felt more entitled after getting loot to keep it after seeing it

This tbh it would break all addons that give warnings and info via chat.

I just ignore any whisper about loot. I put it up for roll when i don’t want an item.

Do you need?
:smiley:

Honestly, the most anoying beggers are the ones who just imediedly trade you without asking and when you decline they just put " ? " in chat and put trade again.

Yeah by adding loot to the dungeon

People do this in raids too, particularly transmog runs through BFA raids.

Am I the only one finding this really rude? I mean, if I don’t need something, I’ll say in chat & let people roll on it. Are you honestly trying to “skip the queue” by sending a whisper instead? :smiley:

Or ppl are trying to make sure ppl wont be just selling the item to vendor… not every one rolls out loot if not reminded…

Kinda unrelated, but I just came back after an 8 year break and that add-on that automatically says ‘‘GZ!’’ in guild chat if someone gets an achievement is so annoying. You might as well just not say anything because it is so insincere. Wasn’t there when I was last playing.

Ha ha, professional beggers, did not know about add-on like that

i just made a macro along the lines of
“if i want to offer an item, i will say in chat and everyone who wants to can roll for it. I do not respond to whisper begs from an addon and you are now going on ignore. All this is down to you spamming people with addons and not giving a damn about the annoyance and upset you cause” and then put them on ignore.

Solves the problem and makes me feel really good that a spamming git like that will forever not exist in my experience of wow.

Oh they’re equally as bad. I was doing nathria and had the very same automated message from 3 different people before :joy_cat:

Gz you have caught a fish. Yes its very cringe isn’t it.

disenchant it in front of them. Usually stops that asking.

Must be the gearhelper addon? Automatically tracks drops and your stat weighs, very useful addon. Sorry you feel bad about it.

If ppl would actually take a minute to consider others could need an item such addons weren’t necessary. Nowadays you need an insta spam addon or else said person has already left the group and you don’t even get the chance to manually ask for loot.

These automated whispers decrease the chance that I’ll give it away :woman_shrugging:

You say this but then this occurs:

Legit players that insta trade you are the most annoying thing ever.
If I want to roll my item I put it in chat; I never give an item to someone that insta trades or that has the auto-whisper addon.

When I do heroic or normal runs for transmog this most of the times occurs, then I get bashed because “I nEeD. muH lOOt, you MaX ilvl”…
