rmts who spam tells

[erzascarlett]

I have 116 rmt tell spammers on my black list. why dosent SE ban these accounts already? every time I look at my black list after "actions against rmts" is released I lose 1 maybe 2 names as accounts deleted. dose SE really not care about the people who want to play this game or the dirty rmt subscription money?

[Lurkios]

SE doesn't delete RMT characters so that the names cannot be re-used. Not reading (Deleted) doesn't mean they haven't been banned.

[Nekodar]

Banned does not mean character deleted.

Characters stay until the account holder deletes them.

Most of the names on your list can be safely removed from the blacklist if you go from the top.

SE *NEEDS* to implement a feature where banned IDs are automatically removed/deleted from the blacklist.

Or just blacklist the terms the RMT use to advertise. I'm sure legit players are not going to be sending tells to each other with 'pvpbank.com' in them.

There are plenty of other reasons to blacklist someone that doesnt involve RMT. Someone harrasses you, you blist them, they get a temp ban, it auto removes them from blacklist, they can come straight back to harrass you once the ban is lifted.

Chances are the (deleted) characters were legitimate players who got hacked and then deleted their character after realising half their server probably has them blacklisted now

I think we're only talking about perma bans, not temp bans.

I did consider that, but is it possible to actually create a system to differentiate between the two? (I'm honestly not sure) Not to mention plenty of perma bans can get reversed if they can 'prove' they were hacked- if it was someone legitimately hacked for RMT then being able to automatically remove the name from blists would be a great idea, since then innocent players dont have to delete their character or server change. But then Im sure there are plenty of people who could claim they werent at fault for something and come back to bypass the blist.

Why pose a strawman? You know damned well he was referring to PERMA bans since

a) the thread is about RMT

b) SE don't 'temp ban' RMT

well often enough they will use filter evasion measures by using special letters to bring their message across

Often it looks like reading it out loud will opebn the gate of Tartarus
