This is mostly to the developers, but also as a warning to those who are thinking of buying AION.

The game is pretty fun with nice graphics, no complaints there.

But the SPAM is ATROCIOUS!!! You can't even ask a question or talk with someone since the chat window is continuously scrolling with spam. I hope the devs do something about this soon or LOTS of people are going to leave.

Another great wish....please let them have a block system for spam in SW: ToR so it doesn't happen there as well....

In the chat window right click on the spammers name then choose block. you can also type /ignore "player name here" without quotes. It takes 5 seconds to block all the spammers. Also, even tho I'm sure they are looking into the problem, I seriously doubt the developers is checking here for feedback.

If you checked their website...Which i doubt you have you'd know the current situation of spammers. They've posted an answer to the gold spammers.
Check here

"We currently have Game Masters monitoring all our servers. They track chat channels closely and have been banning thousands of spammers every day."

"
We are considering a number of methods to address this chat spam that have been implemented in previous games, as well exploring new technologies and what they may have to offer to improve your game experience. One upcoming feature for Aion will be an improved chat filter to help reduce the overall chat spam. This filter, along with new tracking and monitoring methods, is the first of many steps that we'll be taking to help resolve the issue of gold spamming."

Not a hard piece of information to find either.

One reason I never keep general chat open. Only friends, group, legion and local.

Have to admit that it's pretty bad at the moment. Like Skrat said I only use a select few channels, but Aion has gone down for maintance at the moment. Maybe it's because of this?

there are usually only 3-4 spammers at a time and they can be effortlessly blocked.

Why are you making a plea to NCSoft on the Gamespot forums? There are forums for Aion you could go to ya know... That said, they are actively working on the situation - if you read the forums or follow their twitter feed you will see this.

most of the chats are not useful. I normally only have local, group and legion on. when you're in a good legion you don't need to ask stuff in general.

Well I guess it depends on the server and time you play. Some people on the official Aion forums are reporting nonstop spam continuously scrolling their chat window. And blocking doesn't block the user's account, just that character. Of course, people always exaggerate things (well not always, but usually, especially on official forums).

Thanks for the help guys... I will try to block them off. Also, I'm sure they are looking into it.... I wasn't making a plea or anything, just letting people know of the situation (for those who didn't know). If it can be blocked, and they address it quickly....it will be great since the game is pretty fun, nothing new or innovative, but still fun.
