Formal Letter to SE about RMT situation.

It is a huge issue. SE cares more about the western players then you may think. The presentation letters from SE president to share holders was about how to appeal to the western market which is a larger stake of profit then even the homeland player base at this point in time. It is enough that FF 14 ARR was made to appeal to a western crowd and if we use the avenue SE gives us to express our desire for the RMT/BOT issues to be dealt with via suggestion email,forum and more as a unified voice put in a constructive response I think they will do something about it. FF 14 right now is SE's flagship game and most funded of their games.

Where is the proper place to submit suggestions where they would actually be looked at by home office?

Japanese forum, in Japanese, probably.

No. The feedback forum which is actually monitored by staff unlike general which is at most moderated for rule infractions on posting and not likely monitored for feedback.

I think they have enough posts here to also realize by now how much of an issue this is.

Quite incorrect. There is no game feedback forum. People post game feedback in the WEBSITE feedback forum, which is supposed to be used to make suggestions on how to improve the forums, and they get largely ignored.

The #1 most addressed subforum on the entire site is the JP general discussion.

I agree it's an issue. I'd be happy with an optional keyword chat filter that allows the user to input keywords to filter tells. Filtering out tells with "gil" and www" would negate 99.9% of my tell spam.

Isn't gil also used a lot in non-RMT messages?

Then maybe it's time we flood the Jap forum. Google translate is good enough to get the point across.

Most likely result for something hostile like flooding, is suspensions or bans.
