At the peek of the battle today there was some serious chat spam going on. Granted that is expected but it seems odd not to have some kind of way to filter it or reduce the spam. If there was a chat filter it would also be nice if the server did not send the players client that chat data if the filter was on. It would reduce spam and bandwidth requirements in the larger battles.
Another possible way to reduce the spam indirectly would be to provide a group function. Players could form their own groups and keep the majority of the spam in there and use the faction chat for important stuff. I realize the majority of players are in fleets and can use their fleet channel but there are also alot of players not in fleets that might find a group function usefull. Heck even when 2 fleets work togeather a group channel would be kinda nice.

Wouldn't mind a way to have options to turn off the server msgs, ie when your items become destroyed due to Flux or ECM Mines, turn off enemy chat, turn off yelling, and overall turn off all chat msgs altogether, also turn off any help msgs or planet msgs.
Would be nice
