NA house challenge for FFXIV dev team

[Mimilu]

This reminds me back from before we had the ability to right-click and report RMT bots (I want to say near the end of HW).
On NA and EU servers RMTbots would spam you will tells until you blacklisted them and/or set yourself to busy and to report them, you had to write out a whole report.
It wasn't until Yoshi-P was touring around NA and EU servers and got spammed himself that the dev team really saw how bad the problem was (even with the forums having tons of threads about it). It kind of raised the question of what exactly do the reps tell the devs outside of the JP forums... >x>

Not much \o/

But lets be fair, they compress all that information, get it translated, so theres maybe larger footnote of "Hey there are pretty pesky rmt bots sending /tells 24/7 over here..." or smt lieke that...

On the other hand, i really wished yoshi or someone who at least speaks a bit more english would tour more often on NA/EU...

Even back in DAoC, the Team Leads for classes could have a free account so long as they were Team Leads, and that was a strictly voluntary position (I used to be a Hunter TL there). They finally did away with that system, but it was the best way to connect the player base to the development team in terms of wants/needs/desires and report back why something was or was not implemented.

Funny that employees for SE don't get a free account, but that could also be because of the JP work ethic.
