Good day everyone!

This is my first post on the forums (I did search before suggesting this though), about a subject that affects mostly me, but from a few in game discussions, seems to be troubling other players as well.

Here’s the story: I’m on the Piken Square server and like to hold free dye giveaways throughout the day. I’m addicted to unidentified dyes and would rather other players complete their collection than sell them/mystic forge them. However, there is one thing that is really annoying and preventing the process of giving dyes to be smooth and not frustrating: The Mail system’s spam limit.

As it is now, you can only send two separate mails, then have to wait around 30s to send another one, and after that one, you’re completely blocked from sending mails for roughly a minute (the times are probably off, I’m not too good with numbers, but it’s what it feels like to me). Now this is very annoying when giving items away, but it also creates problems when sending out items to your friends/guildmates (if you do not have access to the guild stash, for example).

I guess what I’m suggesting is making the spam filter a bit more lax. I know, I know, the measures are there to keep bots from mailing their crap, and it has worked well at that so far. But while keeping bots from doing this, it also feels too restrictive for the players as it is. How lax, I couldn’t say, but something that allows more than 4 mails every 1m30s~ would be appreciated.

Tl;dr: Spam filter too hard on players, make it slightly more “trader” friendly.

Any thoughts, ideas & suggestions very, very much appreciated!
