    You've suggested Honeypots - good idea, probably doing it already?

    OP is suggesting the honeypot idea (also used vs. malware, e-mail spam, etc.) and SE should certainly do it if they aren't already!

    I am also leaning toward the whitelist or communications prefs approach:

    Friends can: [√]tell [√]invite [√]invite to alliance [√] invite to FC ...
    or
    Allow /tell from: [√]friends [√]party [√]fc [√]linkshell ... [√]whitelist [ ]spammers [ ]anyone
    ...

    The main disadvantage is it would probably kill off random global /tell, which is a nice feature if it's to/from real players and not RMT spambots.
