Exactly how obvious do RMT need to be SE?

I'd give a right gonad for a right click report feature like other games have.

"A" right gonad...

Are you stealing people's gonads in ice-filed bath tubs? Do I need to file a police report?

2) You have an ignore feature. Use it.

Can't, it's full. I could try emptying it but it will just fill up again in no time.

No.2 It's not OUR JOB to police the game.

It actually is our responsibility to keep our servers clean and tidy. It is like RL, if you let someone else pick up your own garbage or someone elses' garbage it will never be picked up.

It is your job to make sure Square knows about the situation, do you think every employee sits and wait for something to happen? People are paid to work, not sit on their arses waiting for something to happen.

Don't be silly. With a right-click report button and a team dedicated to slamming them, there will never be an issue of nothing to do.

What do they do when there is none of that to do? If you get Square to pay someone to sit on their arses and ONLY do this shite, that is a massive amount of wasted money when they could be doing actual work.

They have a team dedicated to slamming them. They "slam" thousands of accounts a week/2 weeks.

The issue is you aren't getting instant gratification, so you're upset. Your problem, not SE's.

I'm female, I don't have a pair easily accessible.

They can have my dog's gonads if it gets rid of the bots. And the spam. I just reported one, got a second tell from them while I was copy/pasting the text from the first one in the report...

Doesn't matter. They're taking 2 weeks to ban accounts that are considered throwaway. They've already made new ones to replace them. That's what you're not understanding.

They can ban all the accounts they want for RMT, but those guys just keep coming back with more. Why? Because there's lazy people that want things like the dancer set that cost 20 million gil per piece on some realms, and not everyone has that kind of money.

Right click report feature works wonders in other games. Not only does it send a report, but it adds that player character to a squelch list, where you cannot see anything from that character until you relog next.

Best part? It doesn't affect your actual ignore list, which can be saved for more important things, like ignorant tardwaffles that like to be immature jackasses in shouts.

What is with your fascination with instant gratification..?

It's not that they're not getting banned immediately, it's the fact that their numbers never seem to be cut down. Like, at all.

[Malevicton]

Yeah the problem is that SE hasn't noticed em. Post 3 or 4 more threads, that'll probably do it.

Why are you using "you" and "your"?
In any case, what they are doing is not enough. Each week they ban maybe 1500 accounts after they have been advertising for days or weeks. They don't care about that. They can plan for that. It is clockwork on their rotational schedule. It is an expected business expense. See what I'm getting at, here?

Take that expected business expense and turn it around. Don't let them advertise for any longer than 10 minutes per account. As soon as they get enough reports, mute their entire account (all characters associated) and investigate. Make this hard to abuse. How likely is it that someone is going to convince 25+ people to report an innocent?

This way they can still do wave bans each week, but at the same time, making new accounts slowly becomes less viable because they can barely advertise anymore.

But you know. Hear no evil see no evil. All these people are just whining and want instant gratification.
