RMT SPAM /TELL

[Avenger]

A whitelist feature could help:

Allow /tell from: [√]friends [√]party [√]fc [√]linkshell(s) ... [√]my whitelist [ ]spammers [ ]anyone
...

It could be expanded as spammers start abusing other communication features ("you have been invited to the free company www.spammers.com...")

I like your Whitelist idea, my only concern is that /tells are not the only spam RMTs use. We also get the Friend Requests. We'd still be getting the requests, and filling out our blacklist. It would be great to cut down on the tells, but also great if we could report the RMTs easier and get rid of that player for good. Left unblacklisted, I've had the same RMT sending me tells throughout the day for the past 3 days or so.

Another thread on whitelisting is at: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...tion-for-tells

It could be possible to specify communication preferences for anything that is commonly abused by spammers including /tell, /flist add, /invite, fc invite, etc..
