Just as the title says, I finally had to set my status to busy to block out the endless tell-spam from gilsellers. This sucks as I can't see ready checks, can't get tells from people wanting to join my FC, or get tells for any other reason. I play this game a lot, like a lot, a lot. And I can say with 100% certainty that RMT spam has not gotten any better. In fact, it's gotten several magnitudes worse. I think something has to be done about it and like yesterday. I have some suggestions. I know they're not new ideas but I was hoping if any of these get enough support, SE might do a bit more than they're currently doing.

1) Give us a click to report option.
2) Don't allow the sending of tells until someone is at least X level (probably 15 or so)
3) Let us blacklist more people.
4) Give us a quick option to clear our blacklists.
5) Give us more settings about what tells we'd like to block (tells from strangers, tells from people not on friend list, not in FC, not in LS, etc.)
6) Don't allow the sending of many tells within short time frames.

Of these, I think 1-4 are the weakest but at least they'd be something. I believe 5 and 6 would be particularly helpful. I still couldn't get tells from people wanting to join my FC, asking me questions about PF groups I have up, etc. But at least it's not as heavy handed as shutting out tells completely.

Whatever the route SE takes, I think it's obvious that something more has to be done.
