As local is our primary intel tool - its annoying as hell to see it filled with dusties -since it prevents you from quickly assesing who can actually shoot you. I know that you can unclick dusites under channel settings but - at least for me everytime they talk they get added back into local reducing its intel value. Can we please get a perma way of removing the dustie spam from our local list? Either that or nuke local althougher..

You mean that DUST514 has trashed Local for intel?

We must push to expand DUST to cover nullsec immediately.

Have you checked your chat options? Because, there's already a filter there. It was pointed out when the chat box was updated many weeks ago to include DUST players (which weren't on the server yet, but that's forward thinking for you).

I'd say wait until tomorrow after downtime. I'd be willing to bet they're patching in a fix.

Doesnt work for me - when i unclick infantry - it clears local once but then it fills up again as they post in local - very annoying.

Didn't read the OP did you? Cool

Appears to me he's saying it's bugged....

Dust bunny removal tool on the way? Or do we call that a broom? Fingers are crossed for a fix...

unprovoked orbital strike? completely different animal. I would pay 1 plex for 1 round of turkey-shooting.

also: might wanna submit a bug report about the local thing.
