    We all can give SE sugestions on how to deal with RMT and improve our spam experience, or SE could just instantly ban anyone who sends 100 tells to ppl at the same time. Let's be honest, if a RMT bot can be programmed to send 100 simultaneous tells to certain playes in a certain map every 5 minutes, then SE can program a countermeasure or at least detect this kind of comunication and stop it. I would have guessed with the cash shop at last they would have enough money to hire staff to be in charge of this, but apparently not. It is really not our job as players and customers to report RMT, keep track of our blacklist, and if that doesn't work, block tells and not being able to talk to our friends, it's SE's job.

    Even a whisper to 10 different characters is enough to flag as bot. Who in the world as a person is going to select 10 different characters and spam messages?

    Thank you, Bebekurenai
    Subscribers, of this website, have presented lots of workable anti-RMT,
    anti-spam suggestions, that have been successfully implemented by Square Enix competitors.

    -- Network Security - Many (or most) developers are ahead of Square Enix in
    protecting their networks from the RMT criminal threat.
    -- Source Code Vulnerabilities - A low gaming-industry priority. The Square Enix
    priority is for customers to cope with continuous exploits promulgated by
    the RMT criminal organizations.
    -- Numerous in-game (easy to code) RMT Countermeasures have been well articulated by customers right here in this website.

    Lol, What? The servers aren't being hacked. This isn't even remotely part of the RMT problem at all. The entire RMT problem is from RMT using proper in game tools or minor exploits. Not hacking the servers.
