Blank text ingame

So....

Since our return I have seen many times players chatting in server but with blank text. If I am honest, it is generally players from Russia or Ukraine.

One player told me it was a mod to prevent admins seeing what they say.... funny but not true.

Anyone actually have an idea what it is and why?

It is also spamming most time so do you think we need to include it as part of our rules?

Thoughts?

Hey m8,

The blank text is just people talking in there language, so they actually are breaking the rules with talking in russian or any other language with weird characters, your game can't read it and just shows blank spacen in chatlog is shows as ?????????

Or a funny guy who just space and type :p

well, looks like I was too late, but I would have suggested the same, without knowing it. Based on my expieriance with these players who chat blank texts
