current state of RMT spams

[Seif]

I guess this is what's great about Balmug. Only legacy on it and the RMT is relatively small. I thought it was the taskforce being efficient but must bethe other reason.

Tip: Have a different log tab for quest text so that random spam doesn't make reading impossible. Lord knows nobody can see that small speech bubble font that cannot be scaled.

I normally play around 4 hours a day. In the last, let's say, 4 weeks I got around 4 or 5 tells. I reported every one and /blist -ed them.
To my feelings it is an acceptable level.
That is on Shiva, almost always in prime time.

May it be that your server community isn't pedantic enough reporting them? And every community begins with us ourself.

RMT spam is quite rare these days on Ragnarok. Some tells here and there, maybe 1/week for me.

What upsets me is that characters using bots or hacks continue cheating without punishment.
Some of them are still online even though they got reported months ago.
In fact, none of the ones I reported got deleted and some of them I can see online in the same area everytime I check their name, day after day.

Balmung has lots of new (non-v1) players on it, FWIW.

OT: It was quiet for a while, like 1 /tell a week. Now it's picked up a little. Maybe 1 per day on average. The only shout spam I see is FC recruiting, tho.

I've gotten a few on Excalibur but its nothing excessive. Usually happens as soon as I teleport to limsa but other than that, it isn't as bad as it used to be.

I get at least 3 a day now. After 2.1 dropped I didnt get 1 tell for 2 days, and then for a week it was maybe 1 a day and my blacklist went from 175 to 145 so I was pretty happy. Sadly over the last week or so my list is back up to 188 and the spam in open chat has ramped back up along with tells. SE, look, we know you are working with the RMT, this has been a thing with you since my 11 days, but for the love of god, at least make my blacklist bigger than 200 people if you are going to keep pretending you are "doing all you can to combat RMT".

In the past week I have blisted roughly 40. Today it was literally 2 back to back and then a third not 10 minutes later. Something is up, I haven't seen it this bad in months.

My experience with RMT spams

Your blacklist is full.

Clear your blacklist. Many of those people don't exist or are banned now. When they are banned they don't turn to [deleted]. I cleared my 150 or so down to the last 10 I added a few weeks ago. Didn't increase my spam at all. Everyone I've added after that was new to the list.

On the OPs note I agree. It's much better lately. I rarely have to add anyone. The new right click ban feature is amazing. I'd love to have a right click report+ban though.

I didn't get a new one for the past 26 days. Looking good on Ragnarok :3
