Formal Letter to SE about RMT situation.

It was nice while it lasted, but yesterday I started getting gil seller spam again. Not as much as I used to get, but it's still annoying.

Yeah, same thing. Things were a lot quieter but the in game tell / say / whatever started picking up again. But what I haven't had to deal with? No friend requests from these accounts since trial accounts were blocked from being able to send friend requests. That much is nice.

I've had the opposite - Plenty of friend requests >_< Probably more than actual tells, as of the last two days.
It was so nice, all through early access... and then it started picking up.... T^T
And the blatant bot in Gridania, sitting at the Aetheryte spltting out RMT advertisements every few minutes. New players are going to see that, so easily... >_> Some may not know any better. At least the RMT bots I remember sitting Ul Dah's Aetheryte were just tell bots -.-

Dammit I really hoped they would do something when HW came out.. It was so quiet and nice but nope.. I have to go back busy mode cause I still get those damn friend request.. C'mon SE!

Just make sending friend requests and sending tells a lvl 5 quest. You really don't need either of those things before lvl 5.

That's.......actually not a bad idea. Might be a slight annoyance for new people joining cus of friends but I assume they would find a way to meet up fairly quickly with outside means.

That wouldnt work at all. Give gil sellers a few days and they have a macro to reach that lvl 5 quest and then they will continue as usual. They will always find a way, no matter what Square is doing.

Sadly this is still a big issue in 3.0.

[Maxipep]

I can't understand how a lvl1 gil seller gets to coerthas. It makes you wonder if SE are supporting Gil selling. If it was a hack then the place would be full of them but given its only 1 or 2 different names its as though they have been "given permission", and why haven't all the previous accounts been deleted yet so we can start adding to blacklists again ?

Just take a page from TERAs book and ban ips out of China. Don't think I've ever seen an RMT tell in TERA.
