Increase Blacklist PLEASE

I know there may be complications for whatever reason about banning obvious gilsellers, but when you have a blacklist filled with 200 gilsellers (All Blacklisted from tells so it's pretty obvious who they are) and I'm still getting a tell ever 3 minutes, there is a problem. I'd love to blacklist more since they aren't being banned, but I can't. I'd have 400 blacklisted already if I was able to. If you're not going to ban obvious gilsellers, then please allow us more space to blacklist them. Thank you.

How do you know they aren't being banned? They do them in masses. http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...600ff44b3e9452

Just do what many others do and delete the oldest ones.

Banned =/= deleted. Accounts aren't deleted, presumably in case they need to be recovered at some point, or to keep records of some kind.

Time Period: May 15, 2014 to May 21, 2014
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT advertising: 939
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT/illicit activity: 598
- Action Details: Permanent ban from FINAL FANTASY XIV

Time Period: May 22, 2014 to May 28, 2014
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT advertising: 839
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT/illicit activity: 618
- Action Details: Permanent ban from FINAL FANTASY XIV

They just banned over 1700 accounts in less than two weeks from advertising alone, so yes, I'd say they definitely do ban them. It's safe to delete blacklist additions more than a couple days old, anyway, because even any that may have slipped through the cracks (it's impossible to tell for certain which are banned and which aren't, if any) are no longer going to be sending out tells.

It would be nice to have some indication. If a character is deleted, it says so in any list (Friend list, black list, FC, LS, etc). If a character is banned, a symbol should appear to at least let us know. It's beyond obsessive with this RMT tells. I've gotten 8 in a minute before...from two different characters.

90% of your list can be deleted.....

the fact you find you need to increase the size of your list shows that no matter now how big they make it, it will not solve your problem

What I'd like more than a bigger blist is the option to delete multiple at once >.> It's tiring going through 1 at a time and spending a good amount of time only to realize I've only deleted ~15, which that gets filled back up before the end of the day

Everytime you add someone to your blacklist, remove one name from the other end. Spammers are pretty quickly muted. I usually keep around 20 name buffer and I've not come across anyone I've removed from the list suddenly starting to send me tells again.

It is easier and faster with controller

Controller Master Race ^^

I've put tells in their own log and turned off the notification sound. Sweet, sweet silence. It sucks I have to do such, but I rather sacrifice tells right now and not have my chat log flooded with their long spew of spam.

can safely delete about all /blist , just save last 15~20

Or just type /busy :)

This is a tiny bit off the topic of what the OP is asking. However, I'd like to see SE fix the blacklist altogether. It rather annoying when I've got normal people on blacklist and every time I go into a dungeon I find that hey, I can see what them people are saying in FC. There a reason I put them on blist - so I don't see them talking at all. I don't know if anyone else has ever noticed this, but I'd really like SE to fix this some how.

As for what the OP is asking - there no reason for an increase. Every few months I go through the blist working from the top and clear out about 20 or so RMT names. I try and keep my blist at 100.

I filled up my Blacklist twice already. What I'd like in addition to a larger Blacklist is the ability to delete mass amounts of people off of it at once, if not all of them. It is so tedious, right click delete, right click delete 200 times.

Yup, the blacklist doesn't work while in an instance.

I'd like a "remove all from blacklist" button cause it's damn annoying to do it one by one, every couple days.... A "lock" button for individual names (actual people who aren't RMT but don't want them bothering us) could be helpful as well in that case.
