Can you restrict /tell to people who have completed the level 5 job quest yet?

The amount of RMT spam is getting ridiculous.

Nope

/10 char

You think this is bad, you must be new. No offense of course.

That would also impact new players trying to reach their friends when they start playing.

Just blist the RMT spam, it only takes a second to right click on their names.

Don't turn the filter on or talk with them in whatever way was used before getting the game.

And significantly longer to remove them, especially since these days the blacklisted name is only good for < 10 minutes before they make a new character.

Why can't we just restrict /tells to only be receivable from friends?

Because there are a lot of valid reasons to use /tells on non-friends. Maybe you see someone from a PF or DF group you were in the other day and want to say hi or ask them if they'd like to do another run. Maybe you see someone with a character named after your favorite fictional character and you want to tell them "Hey, cool name!" I've gotten a few tells from people asking if I was the same person as someone who played 1.0 and apparently had a similar character name.

Sometimes you want to be able to send someone a private message without necessarily adding them to your friend list.

This. I enjoy those random tells I get from people although it isn't often it is nice when it does happen.

Could always make it an option that has to be enabled. That way if you want these kinds of tells, you can just leave it disabled.

Really they need to add a community Black list.
If someone is black listed more then say 500 time they are deemed back for the community and banned from sending tells.
