Five RMT messages in 20 seconds.... :(

I just want live GM who can get all the unwanted RMT friend request and Tell spam.

What they can do, as I've stated in many past threads AND something they did in Final Fantasy XI; is ban Chinese IP's from creating accounts on the NA/EU servers. (Not sure if the JP servers have this issue or not.) This killed RMT in Final Fantasy XI. It would have a very little negative impact on players because China has their own servers now, so let them play on their own servers.

Last night I got 5 RMT messages in twenty seconds.

Did you report each and every one?

No?

Then you are part of the problem.

You're kidding, right? Please tell me you're kidding. If he did that, he'd be spending all of his time in game reporting RMTs and none of it actually playing the game.

Reported each and every one.

ban Chinese IP's from creating accounts on the NA/EU servers.

That might have been a solution 5 to 10 years ago, but now it is to easy to fake an IP address.

The large problem with the fixes given is that rmt will just log out, create a new char, and then log back in, no impact whatsoever done to their ability to spam.

Which is why they need to ban the people who buy gil.

it's so good playing in tonberry. i can count the number of rmt tells i received since i played on 2.0 release in 1 hand (no extra fingers). so rare i even remember when i got it.

I duno, i mean new players can always buy gil and this would probably make RMT more desperate. More annoying.

A simple solution would be to give us players more options for managing our chat log. An options page where we could set parameters for tells would be a good starting point.

e.g

Receiving /tell parameters

• Player level - range from 1-50
  
• New players - check box (or a time frame in days or weeks)
  
• Friends list - check box
  
• FC members - check box
  
• LS members - check box

etc etc.

Ban the buyers and eventually no one would buy gil, either because potential buyers are banned or they are to afraid to buy. As a result gil sellers would make no money and eventually leave the game. In the long run the game would be healthier.

No he's not part of the problem. As a customer, he shouldn't have to sacrifice his gaming time to report "each and every one". That's part of the reason why we pay a sub, so that SE has the funds to deal with these game-breaking issues, not just ignore them, and keep the cash.
