Suggestion to combat Mentors intentionally inviting RMT Advertisers

[C-croft]

Isn't there a confirmation pop up when you blacklist someone as as well send an invite to someone?

There is no pop-up confirmation for inviting to Novice Network, but I did just do some inviting in Player Search and saw no add to blacklist option...

The fact that you don't blacklist is not relevant. The fact that some people do and the location of both options is relevant - it provides a readily available example of how they're invited accidentally.

Actually I ignore pointless negativity. You've had your responses so just let it go already. There is nothing left for me to say regarding your posts thus far.

I am on that network. We need to start changes with ourselves, before we get any official involvement. With a little more information, we can then consider official options that work for Balmung/Gilgamesh as well as the servers like Coeurl.

1. We can consider talking to people before they are invited. Ask them if they have any questions or need help with the game. Figure out if they are for real or not.

2. We do need to be careful with our menus, but mistakes will still be made. If you accidentally invite a gil spammer, apologize and let people know you screwed up. It's Coeurl. The few, if any, that refuse to understand will be the minority and would be called out.

We do have people that spammed the network and then leave or are kicked (not even RMT). There are people intentionally causing problems, but I don't see that all the time. We may not know how these RMT spammers are getting into the network, but we can take steps ourselves to at least try and identify what is happening.

The NN is not some sort of super exclusive club where mentors have to interview people to deem them worthy of entering

Blindly inviting people that did not ask to join anything is something I see as an annoyance, not unlike the people who will blindly invite you to their FC should you dare go anywhere in civilization without already being in a FC.

Although I dislike mass invites (even though they aren't blind, the novice is asked by the system whether they want to join or not) I dislike more when the network has double the amount of mentors than novices, it just becomes a mentor chat. Also you make it sound like mentors are gaining something from inviting, the only purpose of inviting is to help people.

It didn't used to, and the people I've seen bragging about mass blind inviting people were back from the time this wasn't a thing.

I know mentors don't get anything from inviting; I am a mentor. But the way I've seen some other mentors go on about it, you'd swear they were comparing manhoods that way.
