    [Dev 1024] Linkshell Administration Options

    I could not really find a Dev tag that fit perfectly with this however Dev 1024 Crowd control seems to work well.

    To Dev 1024 PLEASE for the love of god Give us the ability to remove, add, promote, and demote people to or in our linkshells without having to stand next to them. This ability should be available whether the member is online of offline. Many of us run linkshells to which multiple people have become inactive due to leaving the game, possibly joining other linkshells, or they are just plain lazy and do not do events with a linkshell. This is a basic feature that should have been implemented when the game was designed before alpha stage. We are 6 months after release of the game and with the dwindling populations on servers, many of us are possibly on our 2nd or 3rd LS reform because we cannot do the simplest of things like remove someone from a Linkshell, when they are offline.

    On to my 2nd topic regarding this, Linkshell messages, FFXI had a really nice feature for LS sacks and Members, a Linkshell topic, please bring this back so we may properly schedule events. I cannot say how many times I have heard members and sacks complaining that said feature is not in the game. This should be very easy to add and once again another feature that should have been in the game pre alpha phase of testing, not sure why it is not in game.

    Please add these features into the system either in 1.17 or in 1.18 or many of us would not care if it was added in a small mini patch at the end of the month. The community has been begging for these features I think it is about time they are added in as your customer base is demanding it.

    Very much agreed, we just reformed for the second time. Its a pain in the ass and something I hope gets addressed before we fill up again.

    Sadly this topic is not getting as many responses as I had hoped, if people do not respond to it I doubt the Devs will even look at it.

    I agree to, This is one of the things they should have taken from XI.

    Well, to be fair, XI's LS administration tools are terrible even, but far better then XIV's. Unless they've changed since ToAU days.

    No they haven't changed XIV would be fine if we could kick ppl who never come online, I wonder if Devs have it this way to prevent us from booting ppl so hopefully when ppl come back they have something to come back to.

    Hey you even tagged it correctly (well tagged it period since there isn't a specific section for it) so i'll "bump for great justice" whenever I see it drop down to the second page :P.

    Yeah, if nothing else just being able to boot offline members is all I ask for the moment. Although further down the line i'd like to see much better LS management options and features like, Last Time Online displayed, where player is located, level and current job, promoting from a distance, creating groups, LS message of the day, etc etc.

    I can only agree. We need to be able to remove inactive members from our linkshells. My Linkshell has also had to reform now and move to another Linkshell since the old one was almost full and we are unable to remove inactive members.

    It probably won't get many responses because by design, there are very few linkshell masters amongst those who play the game. Most people don't know how the linkshell interface works because they've never opened their own LS.

    Even so, this is something that should be placed pretty high (but not at the top) of the list for SE, since linkshells are an essential and heavily used feature.

    I agree with this topic, I can't believe they went from linkshell system in XI to this watered down crap just like they did with friends list is laughable
