For the last little while, I've been bothered by the amount of addon spam generated by addons like Gearscore generate. On EJ's forums, Burghy posted a script that makes you stop communicating using the addon communication channel:
/script SendAddonMessage = function() end
I used this for a while and it certainly quieted things down. Since I always execute this whenever I log in (because GS sends a ridiculous amount of data to everyone), I figured I'd hack together a basic addon to perform the same function.
Bear in mind, I would disable this if you are a healer running healcom or the like. Personally, I don't want my addons talking to anyone else, so I'm more than happy to shut Carbonite / Gearscore / Forte up for good. If you're in a big guild or pug alot, give it a whirl.
