Only the trial and buddy keys. Full accounts can still send tells from the isle, and they can just turn around and go to FP/Q if that gets restricted.

Bah. I really wish they would make a simple fix. Let me filter my tells to level restrictions with the exception of Guild or Friends lists. It seems so damn easy to implement. What am I not seeing?

It adds an unfriendly slant that drives new players away. They try to ask a high end player a question, and get greeted with either silence, or an automessage telling them they can't talk to the player.

Simple solution?
Dont allow toons under level ten to send tells to higher levels or be guilded.
Then the plat farmers actually have to work to level each toon before they can even think of spamming then delete and do it allll over again..
Leveling is incentive for legit players.. but unwelcomed by spammers.

I can't just call up the President of the United States for advice whenever I feel like it. I have to earn my stripes and work through the channels like everyone else. Giving away something valuable for nothing is always the fast track to abuse.

Heh as if you'd call him up for advice.... on what? Either way I think his advice would be valuable like a gold-painted turd is. Not so much.

It's hardly similar. You can, however, talk to higher paid employees in your same position at a job you just started to learn the ins and outs.

Forget that. I know you mean well but I rather recieve an occasional tell from a plat seller than not be able to send tells until a certain level. They already stripped the Trial tells which annoyed me.

Although I see where you are going with this, and it sounds good, but it wouldn't work. Shit, takes 5 minutes to PL someone to lvl 10 and in under a day you can get lvl 20. This wouldn't solve the problem at all.
