And I assume you've reported this to SE.Still impersonating my character on a trial account and harassing my FC and friends.

On my friend's FC book
I hardly even play this game anymore; just stop already.
If they are harassing, you thru your FC house maybe block the entry to it. To report them keep track on the time and date it happens then take screen shots of it happening. I did that and it took only 2 days for them to be banned. They need to make it where free trial accounts can't use world travel or database travel.
The blacklist system needs to be revisited. I agree.
The most reporting I have ever done in this game was just reporting bots.
Gathering bots, under the world bots killing mobs, treasure map bots, and even a bot doing FATES in Endwalker recently.
The GMs never respond back to those reports. Which makes sense.
However they did respond right away when there was a report about a mentor in Labyrinth of the Ancients who blew up on a newbie healer for rescuing him from Ancient Flare. The healer was new and was trying to help but didn't know the negative opinions about the rescue ability and got completely torn into. I reported that mentor and a GM and handled the situation ASAP.
Basically what I am saying is that they probably will ignore a lot of mild occurrences. Which I can understand. If they got so many reports; they have to focus on the most urgent ones. I agree with you that updating the blacklist system will help relieve a lot of reporting, but until happens; you're stalker has to do something drastic enough to where they have to pay attention to your situation. I am sorry that this is happening to you in the first place.
The solution is to allow one's lodestone profile to be set to hidden. The lodestone is simply tied to way too much character data for what little use it has outside of the Mogstation.
Yes, of course.
SE is literally known to barely if at all deal with harassement, everyone I know that has dealt with it in the past had no solution from SE because its bypassed by making new accounts or alts on an alt account, or they just dont act at all, which is what happens in most cases.
Also remove the fixed lodestone link even after a world change or DC change, and remove the fixed friendlist too that people can still see you even after you move datacenter, and after they have removed you from their friend list. It's literally a red carpet for stalkers and it needs to go.
then you report them again.SE is literally known to barely if at all deal with harassement, everyone I know that has dealt with it in the past had no solution from SE because its bypassed by making new accounts or alts on an alt account, or they just dont act at all, which is what happens in most cases.
you don't stop.
Or is your solution to not do anything?
The solution is to stop stalking and harassment by letting people finally get free from it, change the friend list so once you name change or world change/dc change, your name is removed, and change this outdated fixed lodestone link that is letting anyone track your name and world even after you name change.
However reporting them to SE is an absolute waste of time as they dont do anything.
What you say are some solutions, that the stalker can also use to avoid punishment.The solution is to stop stalking and harassment by letting people finally get free from it, change the friend list so once you name change or world change/dc change, your name is removed, and change this outdated fixed lodestone link that is letting anyone track your name and world even after you name change.

But the fact that they needed to make a bypass after being reported shows that SE did do something.
Why would they need to bypass it otherwise?
But if they come back to harass you again after that and you decide to do nothing. *shrug*

how ? In what other game is there a fixed link to your character page, showing all of your world info and your guild/fc ? It's not a thing anywhere because it facilitates stalking and tracking, FFXIV is the only game with this
And I never said that SE did anything, they bypass the blacklist mostly, be it on their main account or on other accounts, as I said, I have met enough people that dealt with harassment in this game, especially as its so social oriented, and SE is absolutely known for doing absolutely nothing about it, their support is easily the worst across all MMO's or close to the worst.
