Ok, "Give us a filter to block tells except for people on friend list/FC/LS? I like to talk with people where I can, please tell me why I should have to suffer just because I want to be social in an MMO?
Block tells for players up to level 10? That would only cause inconvenience to new players trying to learn the game and trying to ask newer players for help maybe they don't want to ask whole zones in shouts. RMT would simply set up a FATE bot and take the 30 mins to level to 10, the higher you increase this the more inconvenience you cause to legitimate players and having minimal impact on RMT.
Blocking befriending from RMT, how would they do this? only allow befriending if we really want to, but if everyone has this filter on how would this work? if they start allowing us to prevent being befriended everyone will have it on and unless we were chatting had to manually disable the filter. People would then start complaining about the extra clicking.

Thats why I think having tell filters will not worked we'll just get really spammed with friend requests.
What I want is a way to remove my name from the search engine, like having an unlisted phone number. Or something in your search preferences line that one can do to prevent these asshats from searching your name.
Oh and they are starting to use shouts too, you can't black list those names though because it seems like after the shout is sent the character is deleted. When you try to blacklist the name it just says "character not found" or something like that. -
03-31-2015, 06:58 PMDelsusWhat I was saying is why should I have to suffer through RMT spam just because I want to be social, I don't play an MMO just to sit alone, if I wanted that I would just play a single player game. If I see a new player shouting asking for help, I would want to talk to them in tells. There was one time I got kicked from a party and started talking to another party member about what happened. I enjoy talking to people, but why should I have to suffer just because I want to be social?Quote:

They could at least make it a little harder for them, by changing so that you can't send tells or friend request people through the player search function, as well as not being able to use tell by just writing the name in chat (would make no difference otherwise).
Only way they could send tells and friend requests then would be to see you, and/or you're speaking in the shout chat or whatever. It would at least bring down the problem.
Who even uses the player search to do that anyways? and I have never used /tell by manually writing down the name after. -
03-31-2015, 07:15 PMEye_GoreIf a tell filter is implemented then the shouts would go up 10 fold or more. The only place where I see alot of shouts anyways is Mor Dhona, which I don't spend too much time there. Its like going to the mall, I go in get what I need and I'm out, no need to hang out at the food court.Quote:

03-31-2015, 07:38 PMEye_GoreThat's the thing though for every solution we can come up with, they will find a way around it. Block tells, we get shout or friend request spam. Limit tells to character level, they will just level the character. Stop Gil trade through the mail system, people up in arms they can't do legit trades, then it will be face to face trades.Quote:

But of course this is not in SE best interest to do this, so it will not stop. At the risk of a perma ban on myself I will not say why I really think SE will not comment or do anything drastic about it, which is why I doubt it will ever end. -
03-31-2015, 08:10 PMQuesseOk we all agree RMT Tells are horrific in number these days, I think this is the 100th post I've seen about it.Quote:
