{DEV/MOD} Starter Players / Level 1 Sending Tells Please Help !!!!

[JustARTificial]

I've seen level 1's in MD. I don't want ARR left in a terrible state where you have to go to HW to enjoy the game again. Someone else suggested that trial accounts should not be able to send /tell and it would fix 90% of the remaining RMT spam. Of course, people will still spam via /shout but it's better than we currently put up with.

Trail accounts can't send tells, or friend requests now. The problem is most RMT spam tells comes from stolen accounts using stolen credit cards.

I am in HW and the gil spam is back to the way it was before.
SE doesn't seem to perma ban accounts, or give us the tools to easily report spammers and temporarily add to block list so I am afraid this is always going to be a problem.
As an absolute last resort they can ban ip's. Horrible idea I know but it could be done even if temporarily.
