DEAR GOD MAKE IT STOP!!!

I am so fed up with the RMT spam every single day. It has been so bad on Diabolos you cant go anywhere without RMT spam . It so bad it has moved out of the cities and into the zones . It is so bad you cant even blacklist them . And its like 5 RMTs fighting over the chat . SE what gives ? I have filed report after report and nothing . How hard is it to ban these accounts . I mean all you do is log in the server see the wall to wall none stop spam fest and drop the ban hammer . Some people in my GC have stopped playing because of it . Something needs to be done and fast . Also why is the NA/EU servers always down? I mean come on whats the deal . I am not sure how bad it is on other servers . But this is something so easy to fix . So please Fix it thanks :)

When one adds 15 players to block list in 1 day just in gridania alone, ya something needs to be done, but ultimately the spammers are stolen accounts because some players feel trapped because they have no gil so they turn to those sites and have their accounts "stolen."

It has been bad, but they are slowly but surely dealing with it. Hopefully when the pay periods start, the RMT will cut be cut down be a good deal. We'll see.

Turning off shout/yell in cities fixes most of the problem for me. I still get the occasional tell, but those I /blist add <r>.

I don't even notice it anymore on gilga

It's not though, I came across two botters farming Diremite webs yesterday, me and a bunch of others sent a compliant to a GM and 6 hours later they were still there, I'm willing to bet if I log in now they will still be there.

i just make it so my general chat tab doesn't show /shout and /yell. i'll turn it on someday

Just proactively blacklist. It's annoying but it works. I barely ever see the shouts and when I do I quickly block them and the world goes on. What is really driving me crazy now is the non-RMTs that start spamming chat responding to them. There was someone shouting "I don't have any money." after every single gil seller shout and a bunch of people joined in. Now I've got almost a dozen non-RMTs on my list.

That sounds even worse than my server. I did see this one guy spamming tho it was almost unbearable, his spamming went so fast I could barely even click his name in time to add to blacklist.

RMT shout stop at LL in the city at excalibur last night....just sudden gone no idea what happen
