In other iterations of World Chat, I've seen it gated behind (usually) lv15, quest progression or leaving the tutorial zone. I agree. I would suggest Lv.15 (First dungeon), Lv. 30 (Job) and/or player time.

Yes a bot could afk and wait it out, but there are bots invited to NN, in /shout, in /say and sending spam friend requests. Unfortunately, there is no way to stop them unless they actually stop botting altogether.
