Losing the RMT spam war SE?

[BLaCKnBLu3B3RRY]

Um, why do you think SE only takes action once a week? They report the action taken once a week, that is not the same thing as taking action once a week.

because they do... it was stated by a red name. i don't know where the post is, it was like a year ago. but it was stated that punishment issued for illicit activities will be done collectively on a weekly basis.


either way, no matter how you look it at... the situation hasn't changed even a tiny iota since launch. nor is there any sign of change coming our way. it is very discouraging. i have played MMORPG's since like 1996... heck, i can't even remember if they were actually called MMO's at that time. anyhow, i have never once ever experienced such high volumes of RMT activity as i have here.

I think though that you are misunderstanding their point. The take action continuously, they do ban in waves, but that doesn't mean that they are doing nothing in between. Each account ban has to be handled correctly, they cannot just ban on spec because there are reports of RMT spam. Your post says they do nothing but take action once a week, that's not true.

The situation has changed, the frequency of spam has gone down as well as up, and will again.

fair enough, but still... too much RMT. T_T

i tell your now, though. and again, i have never seen such high volumes of RMT in all of my years of online gaming since from 1996. i am sure this simply attests to just how popular the game is. which lol, is actually an upside to the RMT... at least we know since there is such a huge market here for them, that we are playing a AAA game. meh
