Idea: Make RMT spammers killable after 100 reports.

[SamSmoot]

After 100 reports have been submitted against an RMT spammer, the character becomes attackable by anyone for one hour.

The count would be displayed next to the character name for 24 hours, and logging off would not clear it.

After the count reaches 100, players in the area could have some fun finding the spammer in order to kill it, after which, it stays dead for 24 hours.

It would also give us the satisfaction of doing something about them other than reporting without immediately noticeable results.

But they can spam even if they're dead. What's the point?

Hmm, wasn't aware of that. Then just force them offline for an hour after 100 different players report them.

can we rather ask for active GM's in game?

Light DC is absolute bot fest and its ruining the game experience by causing major decrease in performance around the aetheryte in Limsa on Light, Alpha - mainly having the draw distance for other players' characters reduced significantly along with decreased FPS.

It's actually actively making the social aspect of the game worse.

I absolutely agree with what you are saying except....

That isn't the GM's job.

Bots, and RTM are assigned to the FOUR PERSON special forces team. Four people, in the entire world, are authorized to deal with them. GM's are not even allowed to be in the same MAP as a reported bot.

This is main issue right here.

lets face it, with the amount of effort they put in (I am guessing/hoping they do something on the Japanese servers at least) they could be replaced by 3 aloe vera plants and a tea cozy.... at least then they would be useful.
