Please add this feature to help combat gold sellers. Please do this before they screw up our server economy!

You can already report players in game. Select the red question mark on the menu bar, then (from my hazy memory) select Stuck -> Still Stuck then you should be able to type in a custom note to report players, report bugs, etc.

The problem with adding such a feature is it requires a client change, so alone for that reason it won't be possible.
But here's an idea:
Create an addon which creates a ticket for you which reports the player for whatever reason you want.
I remember vaguely an addon back in Vanilla auto-reporting gold sellers - SpamGuard I think it was called.

I was thinking about that today. If a sub-level 10 receives X number of reports, they get permanently banned from chat automatically. If on appeal, it was false reports, the reporters get banned.

I like these ideas.. another alternative is to have a section on this website where we can suggest that the GMs (or whoever) "investigate" a player and submit it like that. With the rate at which people can create new toons to sell gold - this method is probably far from an effective one. I will continue brainstorming because I do not want some gold selling assholes to inflate our economy!!!

playing off this idea and the add-on one - perhaps the Nostalrius team can get something in motion for an add-on to be made that would repurpose the "still stuck" feature to include player reporting. Not sure if that would work (especially with the work load Nostalrius already calls for). Just an idea.
