Losing the RMT spam war SE?

[Amenian]

Based on your anger I'd say you completely missed the point of my message. It's about assumptions. About the falsity of blanket statements and the fallacies they represent

More exasperation than anger. It seems like every day there's a new person from Balmung in these threads going "I don't see what the problem is, I rarely get RMT tells. I'm on Balmung!!". The manner in which this is generally said makes it obvious they are saying it to discredit those who are fed up with RMT tells. It gets very frustrating when you're on a smaller server like mine and you have people acting like your problems don't exist because they can't see past the nose on their face. Rereading your posts I see I overreacted to you specifically a little bit. My apologies.

I think though that you are misunderstanding their point. The take action continuously, they do ban in waves, but that doesn't mean that they are doing nothing in between. Each account ban has to be handled correctly, they cannot just ban on spec because there are reports of RMT spam. Your post says they do nothing but take action once a week, that's not true.

I think people aren't articulating themselves very well when they say SE does nothing. Yes, SE does ban some accounts as we see in their reports. They've been doing this since the game launched and yet we see no appreciable difference in the frequency of RMT spams. In fact, overall the frequency seems to be increasing. It's not that SE does nothing. It's that SE does nothing effective. They, for whatever reason, seem to lack the ability to adapt at all. What they're doing isn't working, yet they show no inclination to change tactics.
