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.

This totally wont get abused at all

i think the best would be to develop a AI that recognize such words and behavioral activities, such as standing in one position, constant use of the same phrases , etc .
then after triggering the AI send them to the prison instance and have a GM authenticate that said character is in fact a RMT bot , at least IMO

[MAJRIS]

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.
