    Suggestion to help combat RMT advertisement, please read GMs!

    So I've joined these forums so I could post some extremely important information regarding RMT Advertisement and request a feature to fight it, and it is this: one of the RMT bots is using party invites to advertise and bypass being reported for RMT! Of course, he still advertises by shouting in town, but it would be extremely helpful if we could report their actions in addition to their messages for RMT Advertisement. Please give us this feature so we can further combat these menaces!

    Agreed- the only way to avoid spammy party invites (which seem to happen all the time now) is to set yourself to busy, which blocks all tells from friends, etc.

    Another idea to help against this party inviter: disallow player characters to have pvp in their name! I seriously doubt a legit name would have pvp in it anyway with nothing in between each letter.

    What about shadowbanning bots so that they remain in town spamming the same message on their side, but aren't actually noticed by the rest of us? I don't know if this is what currently happens.

    And it also sending the party invites on their side but us never receiving them? However do that and they'll just move to a rolling rotation under the assumption the bot will be banned after x amount of time.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.
