About Quest Spam

Quest Spam is Back!!

4.2 compatible

What is Quest Spam?

Quest Spam is a World of Warcraft addon or mod that allows you to share your Achievements and Quest progress with your friends over a chat channel or party/raid chat. Great for sharing your Achievements and Quest status as you grind and level up. There are many options for you to work with that allow you to tailor what events are shared. Quest Spam is good Spam!

Why Quest Spam?

Well I wrote this for me and my brother. We love to level and quest together, but, sometimes (more often than not) we are a few levels apart. Well the chat sometimes goes like this.. "Ding! I Leveled!" , and "Hey, I finished {insertquesthere} and it gave me {insertxphere} XP" and the notorious "How many of {insertcreature} do you have left to kill?". This addon will save you some keystrokes, have more conversation not related to your progress, and it makes the grind more interesting watching two or more toons progress.

Usage

Use the interface options addon panel for toggling features. (see image) I hope it's fairly obvious what each toggle does, I put in some decent tool tips. 

Console Usage:
/qspam or /qspam status     Outputs the preference toggles
/qspam on                   Toggles Quest Spam on/off
/qspam stats                Spams your level and achievement stats
/qspam channelid 6          This will set your spam channel to channel 6

These toggle where quest spam goes
/qspam party                
/qspam raid                 
/qspam channel
/qspam local

These toggle quest spam features
/qspam details
/qspam discovery
/qspam questxp
/qspam levelup
/qspam killxp

I use this to ensure that things are working right
/qspam debug

Extra Features

Let me know of any extra features that you think are missing. ... and help me localize this addon

    I'm happy you're back. I really enjoy being able to select who gets the message. I also really like the ability to report the XP.

    Cool

    I believe I just fixed the quest spam issues and updated it for 4.2. 

    Feel free to give it a shot, i need some testers to give me feedback.

    I've been out of wow for a while.

    I really like this addon. It's nice and simple. The only problem I had was that I use the target of target feature, and for some reason this addon would prevent this feature from working. Which would make my targeting ability a bit messy. If you can fix this problem I would much appreciate it.

    Thanks

    This is fixed for me in the latest version for 4.2. Please give it a try and get back to me if you have issues (or don't).

    I'm sorry, this was plaguing me too as I love to play druid and this was a huge pain to deal with, I didn't have the patience to hunt down the issues as I was barely playing anymore.

    Hopefully this wouldn't be too difficult to add, but rather than just saying "Quest accepter: " (and other places you report the quest name), I think it'd be beneficial to have the quest name be a link to the quest id ('er whatever that scripted link is that comes up when you shift-click a quest in your log) so yer buddies can click the quest and see the info.

    Sorry for the horrible run-on sentence ;)

    Sounds like a good feature.

    Since I'm up for feature requests, i'll look into this one.

    No promises.

    I'd like to request some spam type additions: :)

    * Fishing Spam (may work with other professions as well) for those of us who like to fish. Might want to make it a global "gather spam" for fish, mining, leatherworking and herbalism etc.

    * Loot Spam (not gold etc.), perhaps of a selectable quality to avoid excess spamming of junk or mundane items.

    I'm going to give this add-on a try, it looks like fun. Any chance we could create out own, password protected chat channels for our spamming needs (not just a number)?

    FYI: I'm back in the game and looking at suggestions. I'll consider a fishing and I'll look into cooking possibly cooking as I've had friends requests this also. Crafting in general was the request if that makes sense.  (I'm not sure why you would want people to know how much of an item you are making though.)

    Yes you can create your own channel by /channel [channelname] and each channel is given a number in your list. (see your chat settings) Like /1 is general /6 is usually your first custom channel. ... having said that the next update will allow you to set a named channel, not just the numeric index value. I'm adding AFK/DND notification too along with another achievement feature.

    Profession leveling .. yes .. easy enough to do. Something I personally don't usually share but it might be cool in action for bragging purposes. (c:

    Loot spam with a basic filter is a decent request. Something as simple as Common/Uncommon/Rare/Epic. I personally probably would only use rare and epic settings (maybe uncommon once in a while). People have a habit of linking their blue bling goods anyway.

    Thanks for the requests.

    New version is submitted. I just fixed the debug flag issue.
    I'm not sure how long curse takes to update their binaries, but you can also grab it from here:
