I don't remember where/when but I know there was a live letter where someone asked about SE taking action against RMT spammers, and the answer was to keep reporting them and include the tell text they sent you so that they can continue to create algorithms to block the tells they send. It's a lot of work, I know, but the more information they get the better.

As for bots, I believe they request we send in character names with times and zones they were seen in.

The "accounts" may be banned, but the "players" always always always come back with different accounts & the same RMT tells.

The gathering bots are still gathering... those 4 clone mage teams are still queuing... & the 4 mage/choco team is still macro/bot spiritbonding at the Mor Dhona plasmoids.

I have a pic I'll post when I get home. I saw this last night and took a quick screen shot before they disappeared. More to come later.

Just make sure you black out the names. people get in trouble all the time for breaking the name shaming rule.
