You could always just blacklist that jerk(s) again. Worth it imo.

The secret is to not have any friends to send you tells, so you can just stop paying attention to those altogether.

I used to blist the spam all the time, but eventually, realized nobody else is sending a tell anyway, why keep them on?

We need a right click -> report feature like Warcraft. I think the way theirs works is when x amount of people report someone in x amount of time they get auto banned or silenced.

Problem with this is my friends and I DO use /tell to communicate. It's often easier and more comfortable to discuss things through that verses a public channel like /fc.

This is apparently on it\\'s way for 3.4.

That's why I said the secret is to not have friends. =p

Just being cheeky, though. When my FC moved and left me in charge of an empty house, I soon realized I could turn chat off altogether and not miss out on much (turning it on when in dungeons and all, of course).

Not sure with others on my server but I don't really get tells from them that much anymore. My blacklist is still empty from when I arrived on the server about 8 months ago.

I get gil spam infrequently enough on my server that I went ahead and removed the filter I had on tells, but I changed the tone to something less distracting. I like helping with questions, and didn't like possibly ignoring someone.

I wonder if it would be feasible for them to add a friend list only filter option for those who dont mess with tells to/from strangers.

This is a good idea. Like yourself I don't get too much RMT spam but there's enough of it when i'm in a populated area that it's a pain. Anyone who genuinely needed help could always send a friend request first.

Query though for anyone who might know, i've tried to blacklist a couple of people who were jerks in a dungeon and got an error message (I think "cannot find PC with that name") - is this because they're on a different server or something? Why on earth would it be that though! :( if people are jerks I don't want to play with them again regardless of whether they're on a different world to me or not... :/

This has been asked for hundreds of times. I wish this was part of the same update that right-click -> report will be added. And also, letting me change the color of FC members nameplates like I can for friends. That would be awesome.
