Sick of RMT spam

I agree to this post! Stop the insanity.

The fact that the free trial period is ending won't have any affect on the problem. Some names are obviously created with that intent of making it harder to blist, such as Dasdfgd Adfgarf or some such. But increasingly we're seeing hacked accounts that have been hijacked and turned into RMT spammers, with names that people clearly put thought into and that are tied to the game's mythology. RMT doesn't care about the trial period ending because they'll just hack accounts and use an already paid for account to do their dirty work.

It's not even so much the amount of RMT and subsequent shouts that there are in the game, it is the fact that they need to fill all of the lines of chat with the same thing web address, thus killing your chat box. I, personally, have an extra chat filter that has nothing but FC, LS, Party, and Tell chats that I flip to whenever I feel it is getting out of hand.

Though I understand what is being said about having a lvl 15 restriction on shout/yell, that kind of defeats the purpose of chatting. I don't know how many times I have seen somebody shout for "where is x mob" or even just general conversation. Instead of more restrictions on the legitimate players, SE needs to get their "special" team actually doing there job. 500+ accounts banned is only the tip of the iceberg.

Thing is also in game players spam
A few locations i have seen the spam messages pop up and low and behold the person who sent it was standing there in one of the towns
This happened with 2 different people. Closing of their account would be ideal even if a temporary fix

the gil bots and the farmer bots are out of control but the tell spam is the worse!!! how is this hard? i've played mmo's since UO and never been subjected to this kind of nonsense...even UO gave you GM's that would come help or would show up invisible to talk and help you. yesterday i reported a gang of bot farmers lol i fell asleep and was auto logged for inactivity but when i got back on the next day they were still there farming level 5 trees...so why do i get logged out and have to wait in que for these cheaters and spammers???

am so sick of them as well, thinkin I can get a way from them through P2P/subs based game but its really worst in here... hw bout tryin to IP block the whole country they came from, lets say China for example. not a racist, am jus sayin!!! xD

jus to add, hw bout limiting /shout /yell perks according to character level jus liek in forums. its not liek global chat in my server is always alive w/ a legit conversation. day or night, no1 really wants to talk lol
