Formal Letter to SE about RMT situation.

[Zabuza]

So now that the dust has settled on Heavensward, how are the RMTs for people now? Any better? Still more of the same?

By what I've seen on Coeurl:

The RMT Friend requests seem to have stopped. Blocking trial accounts from sending them seems to have helped at least that aspect of it, so that's finally something SE got right.

/tell spam is much like it was before the release.

There had, however, been a noticeable drop in /tell frequency around the end of May. We speculated at the time that it might be just a pre-release lull, but the /tell frequency seems to have only returned to roughly the early June levels (maybe every 10 minutes or so) and not to its early May levels (back when it was a constant flood of tells averaging about a minute apart). Maybe that drop in late May really was an actual change and not just a temporary lull, as we thought at the time.

From June 3rd:

Exodus has been better for about a week. Not gone but but notably less.

The same on Coeurl. I'm just not sure whether it's a meaningful drop or just a pre-expansion lull.

It seems to have stayed down since then. (At least on Coeurl. I can't speak for Exodus.)

At it's current levels, the RMT spam is still really annoying, but no longer the game ruining sort of constant harassment it had been getting to be for a few months.
