problem i had is on bahamut there is a group of people that get all the pearls off the concierge and harass and bully and make fun of people in the linkshells, they are losers, and have no life other than to pick on other people. i hope they burn in hell, but other than that, id like to use the concierge but id like to have limitations and people not able to get another pearl for a month, so i dont have to keep putting thme back up when the bullies mess with it. also would be nice if we can perm block ppl from linkshells.

The whole point of the concierge system is for linkshells that are just accepting general members. If you have coniditions or need to approve people, well, I'd say the system wasn't designed for you.

If people are abusing the system to annoy other players, then yeah, it should be looked at, It's not working as intended........

There's going to be bad apples in every game. If it's a concern you don't use the NPC. Fortunately from what i've seen this is really the exception not the rule.

so its my problem that the game doesnt allow people to be banned or blocked from your linkshell, its my problem that people are getting into linkshells and wrecking things, making u lose friends, and talking trash and trolling, to be obnoxious as hell. its my fault that se doenst want to fix a serious problem, even after paying 34 dollars a month for 2O YEARS!!!! well heck, i guess im the problem then.

I have never held a linkpearl that's attached to a concierge because my friends didn't want to have random server transfers who were run out of their original server joining our group.
Nor did we want people who just hopped from XIV to XI joining and asking for help constantly. If we help people it's a personal choice, not something our linkshells want to help with on a regular basis.

Now, talking trash and trolling. :) we do that on a regular basis to each other. Our LS message a troll post.

"recking things, making u lose friends," ... no newly joined people who aren't irl friends with other LS members are gonna pull that off unless you sabotage yourself.

so its my problem that the game doesnt allow people to be banned or blocked from your linkshell, its my problem that people are getting into linkshells and wrecking things, making u lose friends, 1) if bad people join your linkshell, you can break their pearls. Simple. How you can't do this before they "wreck things" or "make you lose frends" is beyond me.
2) Unless you're promoting these people to sack holders they really can't do anything to ruin anything. If they say bad crap you can kick them and/or blacklist them. It's not rocket science.
3) you don't have to use the concierge feature. If it's such a problem for you, then don't use it. This feature was added largely because they lacked the means to implement a more sophisticated friend finding system.

the problem i had with the conceirge is they keep getting new pearls after broken, and adding friends and changing names and in the end it was a bunch of weird people talking trash that wouldnt leave. thats why i put up the post. it wasnt because i wasnt aware i could break their pearls. been there done that. it was because they wouldnt leave , and wouldnt leave me alone. i can try conceirge again, and hope for better times, but im not sacking anyone and im only putting up a few pearls at a time this time.

Another problem is that you can’t break their Pearl if it’s not equipped or they are logged out. I’ve seen it happen repeatedly where a rogue sack holder would Pearl in an alt to continue harassment and there was little that could be done but make a new linkshell. This kind of drama is rarely driven by a true outsider but rather comes often from a long time member with a grudge.

Nothing like this ever happens.

You still have to put the pearl on to do anything with it. I mean cmon, no one is going to forget you did something really stupid, so dodging by not equipping the pearl only means you're not participating which is effectively the same thing as banning them because they know if they're seen on it they'll get broke.
