RMT is now using party invites with their url as a char name

[Natashio]

They used to do the same thing with Friend requests, and SE eliminated that by disabling the ability for free trial accounts to send Friend requests. Would the same thing be viable here?

The biggest concern when restricting access to stuff is to prevent it causing trouble to legitimate new players, so what do people who actually did (or are doing) a free trial think? If Free Trial players could still join parties provided a subscribed player invites them but not the other way around, would that give them sufficient access to seeing how the game works? A Free Trial, by its nature, is already expected to have more limitations than a regular account.

Posting here as this was the orginal thread.
I think not allowing free trials to send party invites would be the best solution although they should be allowed to receive them.

A trial account is already restricted from sending party invites:
[Party Restrictions]

- Free Trial users cannot invite other players to their party.
- Free Trial users cannot recruit party members via the Party Finder.
+ However, Free Trial users can be invited to parties and use the Duty Finder feature. (in-game matchmaking system)

Which will make these account, stolen accounts or accounts sold to rmts by players who no longer have no desire to play again.
