will their ever be a selfie camera in the game.

Would you consider adding some sort of captcha to queues? I know that it may sound silly but would it curtail the rampant botting?

Glamour Plates (Shared Gear)

I was hoping for an update to the Glamour Plate System. Specifically the shared gear. Here’s my scenario:
- RDM/SMN
- Grabbed the Anemos gear for my RDM, dyed it and everything, but, I can’t place this into the Glamour Plates (because it’s permanent and likely to be updated via the new Relic system). So, I glamour right over my 360 gear.
- Now, I switch the SMN and the glamour breaks. I apply a SMN outfit from a plate to fix it.
- Switch back to RDM and it’s broken again
- I guess the solution is to make the glamour plate gear removable or (a “copy/replica” of my gear in the dresser)
- Or another solution.

Thanks

Recently, in order to participate with an FC event, I had retire my Grade 9 bird, so that I could actually compete with them. Prior to that we had tried Open races many many MANY times, and every time my bird...was winning against my FC mates just walking. The only way that I could race fairly against my FC mates, and FF14 friends was to penalize myself, and to loose a dang good bird. And this hasn't been the first time even that I have had to retire a Grade 9 for this reason!

The way it stands now, Chocobo Racing is pretty much a solitary sport. On the few rare occasions that I can get someone to join me, it becomes fun and full of laughter. However, because I enjoy that aspect...I am keeping a grade 5 bird. How is this fair to me?

When SB was announced, one of the GS venue games that you said you were going to be looking at further was going to be chocobo racing. Is anything going to change in Chocobo Racing? Or, are people who want to seriously race AND participate in FC events going to continue to be punished?

After leveling and maxing out WAR, PLD and DRK and playing all jobs in endgame content I can safely say that DRK is still way behind both WAR and PLD overall.

DRK deals less damage and has less utility compared to WAR and PLD. Aside from that one of it's mitigation cooldowns (i.e. Dark Mind) is restricted to magic damage only. Considering that a majority of the damage a tank receives during the entirety of the game is physical damage, DRK just doesn't feel like a tank compared to WAR and PLD.

Only in end game content Dark Mind starts to be more useful but I feel like a lot of players have already lost interest in playing DRK before even getting to that part of the game.

DRK just doesn't seem to have an identity anymore in the game as of now. Will you look into this job and give it the buff it deserves?

First of all I'd like to thank the entire team behind FFXIV for giving us this awesome MMO.
I've been playing since 1.0 and have seen the fall and rise of this game and even though I may not agree with all of the design decisions that have been made over the past few years I still think that this is currently the best MMO out there.

With that said, something I'd really love seeing in FFXIV is some sort of endless progression type content. It could be within Eureka or PotD type content, i.e. content that is excluded from your standard character progression.

I do commend the team for coming up with new type of content and trying to offer a diverse experience, yet it feels like some of the content becomes inactive after 1-2 months.

I think content with endless progression could offer a longterm incentive for players to do said content and I'd definitely love seeing something like that in this game.

My question is when will we have the unlock Hempen race set styles for all of the races in FF14? It was bought up in last March that it is coming in a future patch. Will it be something we can craft as a level 1 gear piece or something we can get from the GS, Special NPC that can sell them or something that will be in the Mog store? We all would love to know, Thank you. :3

Will there be any force pop nms (trade item to spawn it) in later forms of eureka?

Could some of the following be added to the in game free company page, 1) days since last promotion/demotion, 2) ability for officers to add/view notes (usefull to identify alternates) 3) some form of tracking contribution such as 1pt for being in party when adding ingredients or progressing projects
