Why can't we have the same anti-spam feature that WoW has?

I was online most of the night yesterday and got maybe 1 tell. And last I checked they dont spam in /shout at all anymore.

They are working on it. Fighting RMT spam is a neverending battle, heck wow has been around for nearly a decade and they still have RMT spam.

I'm getting tells every 20-30 minutes. Sometimes less or more frequent than that. And WoW does not have the RMT spam problem that FF14 has. On WoW I'd get spammed maybe once a month, and then when you compare that to how often we get spammed on here... Why would you be content with the way things are?

There is a practical solution to this problem. It's not just a never-ending nuisance that we have to put up with.

Once a month on WoW? You must've played on a dead server. Most servers it's about the same as here. 20-30 minutes. The only difference was WoW blocked the account from spam (until you logged out) instead of ignoring the player. Also in WoW, you have flying dead player advertising like a giant undead billboard, plus /say all the time.
