RMT - Make the player able to report more efficiently | GMs Server Specific?
Dear Development Team:
As a player myself in FFXI for the past two years, I have been frustrated as many other players on the incapability of the player to report suspicious activities of well known RMT. Although I am aware that GM's are investigating reports, there are a few game mechanics that could be tweaked to help the players be better reporters.
There is a huge surge of new RMT teams on each server, many players taking Screenshots of their activities only to be unable to provide the proof to GM's since Windower, which is illegal, provides the ability to Screen Shot conversations and / or activities with text, but it cannot be used as proof or evidence. There are some obvious signs screaming RMT teams (such as lvl 30 teams in Korroloka Tunnel, all rank 1, no sub jobs, no Linkshells or being power leveled by another known RMT) but without the ability to Screen shot, the RMT's themselves even tell us that there is nothing we can do about it and they often, and I mean often tell us in say or in tells that they are in fact teams of RMT and we know there is nothing we can do about it. These questions are following my suggestion of creating a in-game ability to Screen Shot Coversations or /sea alls with a imprinted TIME and DATE to the Screen shot.
Q: Is it possible to tweak the ingame Screen Shot system to be able to take shots of conversations like that of the windower? Could also that Screen Shot carry on a time and date to further be used as a piece of evidence?
Q: To aid the GM's in reporting RMT's, would it be a possibility to create a section on Reporting RMT in the Help Desk or in POL? This would of course follow a guideline form with the ability to attach our "Proof" such as screen shots of conversations. The report form could be as the following:
Name of Player Reporting: Dayala
Server: Titan
Activity under suspicion: Ulli botting in Sky
Time and Date: Monday July 17, 6 PM EST
Name(s) of players being reported: Kingril, Lovemeizi, Superstar
Linkshell Associated with the players: MadnessClub, OOOSkyLSOOO
Evidence to activities: images attached, /sea all Screenshots of their presence in the area at [times], Screen shots of their Bazaars selling ulli stones for various amounts of gil.
Wouldn't it become obvious after x amount of times that LS is reported by other players? Would it be more helpful in helping GM's focus their attentions on these players / Linkshells?
Q: Could SE also dedicate GM's to be more server specific? Meaning, can there be a set team of GM's on each server that can become familiar with the player base or end game, observe the activities of what will become obvious RMT activities after a week of observation?
