Give us an option to stop low level characters from sending us /TELL

[Elim]

How about having an option to turn off tells from anyone below level 50?

I'd definitely use it. I don't have any friends that aren't 50.

If one of his classes is not 50 or if his current class is not 50?

S/he would be able to /tell you if s/he had a 50 in any class. Assuming it can be programmed that way.

But RMT can bot their way to 50 in DoL. In fact, they're doing it as we speak :x

Yes, that's why I said it would be less of a chance, not completely get rid of them.

Unfortunately it doesn't look that way, the level information of other classes is not sent (to cut down bandwidth usage), you only see it when checking search info, where it is pulled directly from database.

That sucks, but makes sense. It wouldn't bother me much to switch to one of my 50s in order to /tell some people though.

RMT do not use the same characters to spam tells as they do to gather. They keep the contact between the two characters to an absolute minimum, to avoid detection.

Unfortunately it doesn't look that way, the level information of other classes is not sent (to cut down bandwidth usage), you only see it when checking search info, where it is pulled directly from database. Programming /tells to pull all levels of the player from database would cause massive server load with all the /tells going on, so it's not happening. This if players had the option to block <x levels, if always blocked, no option, then the client can just refuse to send /tell, as your client is aware of all your levels.

Either way, it would need more than 1 option and I'm in favor of whitelists, friend only, FC only, none, all and combination of the first three.
