I remember reading in one of the letters to the developers they where considering adding a "Report Spam" to the right click menu for chat names. Please tell me where has this option gone?!
This way, those like me who fill our Black list and we have to go through and clear it all out so we can ignore the next 150 of them. When I have to do this, i have to go through ALL of them and remove them, and reblock them as it keeps coming. The issue is I tend to unblock actually players who I black list because they are offensive, but not in a way I can report them to SE. This causes a major inconvenience to me, having to clear out nearly 200 by manual clicking them off just to redo this again. There should be a second list made just for RMT that Automatically will report that individual for RMT activities. This will allow SE to investigate this much more quickly, get the RMT banned more quickly, and allow more actual players to come in and enjoy the game.

Also the new tactic the RMT are using to add you to your friend's list so you cannot block them until you clear them out of the friends list is ANNOYING AS ABSOLUTE HELL! Is there anyway to prevent this...like an option or a requirement to hit lvl 5 or something before you can add friends but players who've played a while can add lvl 1 people to their friends list with no restrictions?

I'll support this and remind people of a thread I made a while back asking for this. I agree that the devs should have delivered something along the lines of Report for Spam by now. It's annoying enough to have RMT send you tells but now they also send friend requests to keep you from blacklisting them.

I would also like an easy report feature for RMT tells. I would prefer not to put on busy status so I can have conversations with my friends and FC mates. It's a workaround, I agree, but a very inconvenient one.

Reporting used to be a chore. Didnt feel like the time i had to spend was worth the hassle, especially with no feedback on people actually being banned over it.
But these new friendlist invites are so anoying that i've actually gone and started reporting people again. Not sure if RMT are really helping themselves with this new tactic, they're only getting banned quicker :/ -

The free 2 week thing has really caused the majority of the issue, before it was the occasional gil spam message but once that 2 week free trial started BAM messages galore and friend requests up the wazoo
The biggest thing I noticed on my server is the fact that about75% of the names lately...are not adsfohiadsf adsjkadf and more like actual character names, so either they are even getting smarter or tons of people are falling victim of buying gil and having their account immediately seized buy the gil sellers (my theory was that personal housing was coming so tons of people were stockpiling gil to afford their private houses, but its just a theory)
I suggest that new players are un allowed to send tells and friend request until they complete the level 10 city quest, they can receive both but not send. This might slow it down a bit at least, btw, my blacklist is 2 from full as of this morning, and ive already removed the deleted this week. -

Ah, the 2 week trial explains it then. I was wondering what had happened that I was getting a bunch of tells and friend requests this weekend, way more than usual. I just wish SE would move into this century and give us paying customers an easier way to report RMT spam.

09-11-2014, 01:09 PMPureEclipseI call bollox on this, before the free trial program started it was the occasional rmt spam blacklist, but I have seriously seen the numbers triple since the free trials started, apparently its not working as intended. Unless someone wants to make a free account and see if it is the case. If free trials are not allowed to do so, than there has to be some other higher reason for the super massive increased amount as of late.Quote:
