Elder Scrolls Online's New Patch 1.0.6 Offers Basic Fixes, But Gold Problems Still Prevalent

There's a new patch out for Zenimax's MMORPG, but it's making adjustments everywhere but where the game really needs changes. The Elder Scrolls Online's patch 1.0.6 deals mostly with quest issues, blockers, stability, etc. All appreciable, granted, but far from what Elder Scrolls players really need right now.

The developer promises that staff "are continuing to improve our fight against bots and gold spammers," but according to a brief post over at the forums, the developers have temporarily disabled private messages, "due to gold spammers." Best of luck with that Zenimax...
