Some thoughts on RMT

[Hala]

So I was thinking. RMT seems to always use /tell for they RMT stuff, right? What if we forbid to use it until some level (say 15 or so) / completion of some quest / or say successful completion of first dungeon. With perhaps exception what person you want to /tell something is you friend?

Tell is pretty specific and for most times if you say need help one can just use standard shout. It can make recruitment to FC a little less straightforward thought.

So what do you people think? A brilliant idea? Someone forgot to take they medicine? How will you RMT if this changes will be put in action? How much harder it will make peoples life? What else can you think can be done?

Getting to level 15 isn't really all that difficult. What would be nice would be an IP ban for RMT sellers.

Personally I've been saying since forever that a rather great way to prevent RMT /tells would be to simply restrict (or at least allow us to restrict) /tells to people on our friend list.

I really can't quite why something like that still isn't implemented, at the very least as an optional setting.

The level requirement might not work out that well I have seen what I believe to be bots in Limsa and they were all level 50 THM's but a quest or specific task that would be harder for a bot to complete to unlock the /tell sounds like a good idea
