Midnight Boost Blocker
Keep your chat clean. Block the boost spam. Enjoy Midnight.
Midnight Boost Blocker is a lightweight, standalone World of Warcraft: Midnight addon designed to automatically filter unwanted boosting service advertisements from Trade and General chat.
Tired of scrolling through endless messages advertising Mythic+ carries, raid boosts, dungeon runs, paid leveling, gold services, and guaranteed runs? Midnight Boost Blocker helps keep your public chat readable so you can focus on playing the game instead of constantly ignoring commercial spam.
✨ Features
- Automatic Boost Spam Filtering — Detects and filters common boosting and carrying advertisements.
- Trade & General Channel Support — Independently enable or disable filtering for each channel.
- Context-Aware Detection — Combines boosting terminology with commercial language to reduce false positives from ordinary conversations about dungeons, raids, gold, and leveling.
- Custom Blocked Phrases — Add your own keywords and phrases to catch advertisements that slip through.
- Allowed Phrases & Exceptions — Whitelist phrases to help prevent legitimate conversations from being filtered.
- Built-In Message Testing — Test sample messages against the detection rules before adjusting your configuration.
- Blocked Message Counter — Keep track of how many advertisements have been filtered, with an option to reset the counter.
- Debug Notifications — Enable diagnostic messages to see why a sample or advertisement matched a rule.
- In-Game Configuration Window — Manage your settings through a convenient interface.
- Minimap Button — Open the settings window with a left-click or toggle filtering with a right-click. Drag the button to reposition it.
- Persistent Settings — Your configuration, custom phrases, counter, and minimap position are saved between sessions.
- Slash Commands — Control the addon directly from chat.
- Standalone & Lightweight — No third-party libraries or additional addon dependencies required.
🛡️ What Does It Filter?
Midnight Boost Blocker is designed to identify advertisements for:
- Mythic+ boosting and paid key runs
- Dungeon carries and power-leveling services
- Raid boosts and paid raid carries
- Paid leveling and character progression
- Gold-related boosting promotions
- Guaranteed runs and commercial carry services
- Common boosting abbreviations and alternative keyword spellings
The detection engine considers context and sales intent rather than blocking every message containing words such as dungeon, raid, gold, or leveling.
No keyword-based filter is perfect. Custom rules and exceptions allow you to tune the addon to suit your server and preferences.
⚙️ Easy Configuration
Open the settings window at any time using:
"/mbb"
or
"/mbb ui"
From the interface, you can enable or disable the addon, configure individual channels, manage custom phrases, test sample messages, view the blocked-message counter, and restore the default configuration.

🔒 Local Filtering, No Automatic Reporting
Midnight Boost Blocker filters matching messages locally from your displayed chat. It does not automatically report, ignore, or interact with the players who send them.
Guild, Party, Raid, Instance, and Whisper conversations are outside the addon's intended filtering scope.

Created for World of Warcraft: Midnight Retail.
Note: This addon is independently developed. Compatibility with the current live client and filtering accuracy should be verified in-game for each release.
