    StopTheSpam  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

    Version: 2.02.20000
    by: Malreth [More]

    Are you tired of seeing 30 lines of "So-and-so's addon has loaded" each and every time you log into World of Warcraft? Yeah, me too.

    No longer do you have to resort to such extreme measures as hand-editing all of your addons, hypnotism, or binge drinking to achieve some peace of mind when logging in to your game. StopTheSpam uses classified Soviet technology to stamp out the endless stream of addon loading messages while still letting system messages and the guild message-of-the-day pass through. It's so amazingly awesome and powerful that it it'll rock your socks and leave you coming back for more! But don't take my word for it, check out these testimonials from actual users:

    "StopTheSpam freed me of the loading messages once and for all! -hic-" -- Christina Lewis, Tire Salesperson

    "lol teh best mod EVAR!!!@#" -- Steven Strickland, 8th Grade Chemistry Teacher

    "What's an addon?" -- Old Man Murphy, Old Man

    What are you waiting for? Install StopTheSpam and start enjoying life today!

    Change Log:
    2.02.20000 - Including the embedded libs is a Good Thing.

    2.01.20000 - Rewrote using only the AceHook mixin for clean
    unhooking. All other embedded libraries removed. Interface update
    for The Burning Crusade beta.

    2.00.11200 - Rewritten using Ace2 embedded libraries. AceHook-2.1 is
    used to hook the chat frames, AceDebug-2.0 for debug messages, and
    AceEvent-2.0 to stop the filter. Filter rules have been moved to
    their own file. The rule for BugSack/BugGrabber has been rewritten
    and re-enabled.

    thanks for posting this. I've been having fatal exception errors, so I've been going through all my mods to make sure it's ALL updated and current. I've been using this mod for years and now it's all updated

    LUA Error
    The addon still works fine overall, despite the fact it's discontinued/outdated. However, maybe someone with some coding knowledge could tell me how to fix the following error(s?):

    Code:
    1x !StopTheSpam\StopTheSpam.lua:92: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)
