Let trial accounts send tells


Blue Rabbit

I've been playing on a trial account on the US servers lately. Most of the restrictions make sense, but not being able to send tells makes me feel like I'm being rude to people by not replying, meaning I've spent a lot of time trying to track people down so I can reply in local chat. ^_^;

I think at the very least being able to reply to tells with a trial account would make life a lot less frustrating and help people to get on teams.

No thanks. I still remember when they were allowed to do it and the number of tells announcing Inf for RLM were a nuisance.

Having just had to global ignore someone for sending inf sale emails today, I'm going to agree with the guys and say no.

why must RMTs ruin everything? Ok, I'll settle for a message saying "soandso is on a trial account and cannot respond" when someone sends a tell to a trial account. I just hate being rude and not responding at all.

Title and suggestion fixed...

This I now agree with...

Set trial accounts with an automatic AFK style message to Tell's

An uneditable AFK message.

And while I agree on the RMT side of things, some of the trial restrictions are pretty anal.

RMT = Massive fail

The auto-response sounds like a good idea. Some sort of compensation/compromise is needed in cases like this, I feel.

Ah, now, auto respond I can agree with.

Apparently trial accounts in WoW can send tells if the person you're sending a tell to has you on their friends list, which is not a bad idea. Maybe an auto responder that says "Add this person to your friends list to allow them to respon"?
