Why doesn't this game have some basic limitations on sending /tells to complete strangers in game? A fresh character shouldn't be able to hop into the game, open up a player search, and then go down a list of currently online players to send them a /tell about a great new gil selling offer.

Players shouldn't be able to initiate a /tell to players outside of their friend list until they hit level 15.
Players shouldn't be able to add players who aren't in the same area as them to their friend list until they hit level 15.

While I understand that eliminating bots is impossible, it doesn't mean that taking zero precautions against bot spam is acceptable.
