I appreciate reading the occasional posts on the launcher where SE points out how many accounts have been banned for RMT activities in their latest round of crackdowns. All the same, with Gil Spammers hitting us at a rate of about one spam every two minutes it's obvious that SE is performing at the level of the little Dutch boy: only so few fingers to plug holes in the dam, and the water's coming from too many spots.

One of the most annoying features of The Elder Scrolls Online could be used here to great effect, however, is taking action on ACCOUNTS, not on CHARACTERS. In ESO, if you friend someone, you friend their account. If you join a guild, your account is what joins. All future characters of yours are automatically on people's friends lists and automatically placed into guilds whether you want that or not. As I said, annoying.

However, if someone is hassling you and you /ignore them, you ignore the ACCOUNT.
