I came to this game after being back on WOW for about six months, and I could probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of direct tells from RMT accounts I got in that time. Even in public chat channels it'd be rare to even see one a day, and it was incredibly easy to report spammers so they didn't last long in any event. I've played a lot of MMOs and I've never seen one which is so completely and utterly infested with RMT spam to the point of it being borderline unplayable, Square's attempts to keep a lid on the RMT problem are absolutely laughable.
