Possible anti-RMT idea?

[Miakisu]

Since we have so many problems with bots, I was wondering if it's possible for a simpler solution:

SE creates a couple accounts on each server that aren't named anything special and are lvl xx. As RMT does their shouts, SE captures all names that send shout to name-capture character; a name-capture bot, if you will.

It's an incognito way to have SE with their pulse to the servers, while gathering all data. In addition, I imagine this would be easier than reading countless reports or more reliable than players that have given up reporting individual RMT names.

Other Ideas:

mmhmm. Or as an alternative, right-click name-->block also has an additional option, Right-click--> Report RMT, with an auto add-to-blacklist option

I suggested that in another thread we have SE GM's just take a look at when very large sums of money are transferred between players. Flag up when a couple hundred thousand to million (or whatever number they want) to assist with catching cheaters.

I am also leaning toward the whitelist or communications prefs approach:

Friends can: [√]tell [√]invite [√]invite to alliance [√] invite to FC ...
or
Allow /tell from: [√]friends [√]party [√]fc [√]linkshell ... [√]whitelist [ ]spammers [ ]anyone
