SE Might Actually Got It Right For Once.

I never used the filter, as when I first turned it on to try, I was told by my friends in LS to turn it off since their messages couldn't get through to me, never turned it on since.

From Wednesday, I've had just around 7 total RMT tells, all from the same account.

I stopped receiving RMTs /tells after my credit card bounced. I guess they don't like broke customers. Should try it sometime :D

I get phone calls from RMTs!

No i still get a ton of tells and so do all my friends that have names that start with an A. i just think by the time they get to the Ks they have all ready been blocked. So SE still sucks

I turned on the filter as soon as they introduced it. It helped, but then they started sending the ones you needed a decoder ring to decipher.
I think SE just might be on the ball a bit and banning them or something quicker. I don't get them very often anymore myself. I often go a few days with none, and then will get a few and then few with none, etc.
