Muling: Let us mail to alts without having them on friend list

[Avorniel]

I'd love to hear from them too. Could you imagine somebody being banned because they added themselves to their friends list?

yeah would be a good idea could we please get a response on this,I don't want to get into trouble for mailing stuff to my own characters lol

RMT sellers have mutli accounts so they can send friend invites to each of there accounts all the time so the current restrictions on mail doesn't stop them and if players want to buy gil they just do a search on the web and work around it that way.

All SE can do is get a decent chat filter in place to stop the spamm (ask SOE if you don't know how,they got a decent one in EQ2) and that's about it...don't penalize us for a situation that can not be controlled 100%.

There are a lot of us who like alt's and for the ones who say all you need is one character yes you can but for example the Arcanist you can not have both Summoner and Scholar without gimping the other and would you really want to keep grinding fates to get 10k seals every time you want to swap ...for me no thankyou

It wouldn't be 'because they're adding themselves to friendlist' sadly, SE would see it as 'Player using an exploit to gain an unfair advantage over rule-abiding players', which is essentially what it is, sadly. (;^; )

I would love to hear a response from the reps on this, but as others have said; please, be careful if anyone is thinking of trying this. I know it's frustrating and by all means I think we should be allowed to mail things to ourselves (It sucks getting my husband to mail things to me all the time! D: ), at the moment it is not intended to be possible so be prepared for any repercussions/consequences. ; ;

This would be nice but it could also lead to RMT spam by mail.. what i dont understand is why i cant mail a character thats on the same account..

not if they keep it within account only which most of us want

[d4rkie]

why not have the game automagically add your alts on the same server to your friendlist?

Um, the thread title is "Muling: Let us mail to alts without having them on friend list". I think 99.9% of players use the term 'alts' to refer to precisely what you just said, so where does RMT come into this?

RMT is prob the main reason we can't mail to our ALT's even the op used RMT as reference

I don't know if this has been posted since I didn't read the entire thread but you could:

Step 1: Log on character A and log out inside of an instance (it will appear as online and inside the instance even after you log out)

Step 2: Log on character B and send character A a friend invite.

Step 3: Log on character A and accept the invite

Congratulations you can now mail things to your alts.

Doesn't work. You get the message about your character still being currently logged in. Also I think the person you mail to has to on your friendlist and online.

Works for me but I didn't log out I Forced closed the game,then logged onto 2 another character's sent invite -then logged back to first character that's was in the dungeon and that character had the friends requests and I clicked accept on 1 character and bingo I can mail to my character,I left the other request still pending....Note I then removed my ALT from my friendlist till we get some sort of confirmation that it is allowed or not

Ah you're right, sorry I didn't notice the in instance part. Yay for reading comprehension.
