Take all delivery box

Bump, Take all option for gil, lemme have it!

Maybe if somebody else cared enough to chime in....

Til then there's always the macro to press ENT → ENT → ENT → ENT ↓ ENT ← ENT ← ENT ← ENT for you.

You can bump it 3,847 times, it wont change anything. Get over it and use a macro if it bothers you that much.

But since I know I can't dissuade you, you'd probably at least have better luck starting a new thread to re-frame your issue with the official response not clearly understanding what you were actually asking for (since you weren't asking to take out the entire item backlog, just what you could see in the box, negating their second point). If I was that passionate about something and they clearly didn't understand what I was talking about, that's what I'd do, since in my casual observation they rarely respond to the same thread more than once. (Then, if they're that worried about people being stuck during the processing, they could just add a single confirmation prompt and it would still be signficantly fewer key presses)

I really don't care how you feel about it, and I already told you I'm going to.

You should still seriously consider a new thread if it matters that much to you. Write a new post that makes it abundantly clear what you do want and don't care about. Just bumping this thread doesn't make that any more obvious by itself.

But whatever, you do you. I'm just saying, if you really want to persist, there are probably more effective ways to make your point. I suppose you think it's enough that it's in your siganture when you bump, but they probably have signatures turned off.

It was more than clear this time, I don't need a new thread.

He is correct. We don't need a new thread. The problem is he lost all his supporters after the official response.

I agree, but I thought I'd try a hand at being helpful to steer this away from being silly and towards being meaningful. But I guess he doesn't really want his take all button as bad as he says. :p

All I need is the thread to keep getting bumped, which you do, that's enough for me

Off-topic: This is very interesting. Japanese players already have been doing that since 2011! Do we have one for the English speaking players too? :)

ＦＦ１１のスタッフさん達への応援スレッド

What does it say?

Isola/Mikah = Eiryl

That's a bold and incorrect statement

I guess that makes Buukki = Pchan

For years, Japanese players have been supporting the FF11 staff, worshiping, licking their boots, crying, and BEEEGGGING for stuff they want. They don't give a [beep] what you think about why they are doing that. That's very Japan for us all. We should do that too. Just give it a try and I promise you I won't laugh at you. :)

Anyway, I am sure Alhanelem, FF11/FF14 staff, and some other people could remember my infamous signature through the official FF14 forum during alpha and beta. Haruhi Suzumiya. aka God of Anime. I hope that makes a lot of sense to you. I don't know what the FF11 staff are thinking of you doing in Vana'diel but if you could give them some love and they will protect you with all their hearts. That's only a matter of time.

While I am perma-banned from the official FF14 forum not so long after FFXIV:ARR officially released, I always wanted to say to Yoshi and his dev team, Thank you for the Red Mage (actually took me 4 years of waiting). It's meant a lot to me. Everyone looked at me how strange I am with Red Mage, looked at my Legacy tattoo, and named me "Zehi".

For me, I already forgot Yoshi and my life is with Matsui and Fujito. Well, that's enough for me to say. :)

I agree with one Japanese player's wall of text. Thank you for reading my post about licking the boots. I also think the developers are wrong. (laughs)

The problem is we don't know what the developers are planning for the 20th anniversary. Replacing the game engine but keeping the battle system? The battle system itself needs to be fixed and well-balanced? (shrugs)

A lot of players are very rich on Asura. The rules are too good to be true.

I mean, if you want to keep living in the fantasy land where this thread getting bumped without any additional support for your proposal actually accomplishes something, be my guest. But it hasn't, isn't, and won't accomplish anything.

I've offered you ideas on ways to potentially get better results and it seems like you'd rather just spin your wheels than actually try to accomplish something.

what a coincidence, I'm banned from there too lol. Though I still play of course.

Page bump. Take all gil delivery box option. <yes, please>

Official response given was inadequate and answered the wrong question.

You edited too much even I saw the first words... I will put a NO on this thread. You don't own FFXI you don't own this forum at all.

Your opinion is irrelevant, kthanks

You don't like the idea, cool, I don't care. Don't upvote, simple enough.

Take all gil delivery box option. <yes, please>

His approach is backfiring, and yet he doesnt really seem to care.

You know, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Just throwing that out there.

Isola was already given an adequately answered response by forum moderators and staff.
It clearly states it cannot be done due to programming restrictions.
I stated that I understand how difficult it would be with the programming alterations, since I am extremely fluent on the intricacies and necessities for changing something as involved in this.
Isola refuses to care, only thinking about whining with "Oh I don't care what you think, I want them to do it so they HAVE to do it, even if it will break the game mechanics and we won't be able to use the bazaars or Auction House anymore. As long as I get what I want then screw the rest of the game"
And that ↑ ↑ ↑ is what will happen if they go along with changing it to what Isola wants.
She/He has one alternative to fix this to his/her point of satisfaction: go learn the programming skills needed to alter this, and create her own game and go play that.
.
Now to wait for Isola to deny I know what I am talking about and that they are better than every other person that also pays to play, and continue complaining like a temper-tantrum-throwing baby instead of being so lazy to check their inbox once a day to solve their own problem that SHE created for herself, instead of having other people do impossible things to alleviate problems for something SHE created and only SHE seems to have, not anyone else.
.
You think they're going to do take down the game and reprogram all the lines of code for every single item and then for gil quantity "item" (yes each quantity of gil is considered an ITEM until it gets received, but not until then, i.e. why it cannot be done. Think of it as an augmented item for players that cannot be stored, same programming problem) for just one person to be happy? Don't count on it. Let's see how many times it gets bumped because she's too stubborn and stupid to realize this. Then hopefully a moderator deletes it and bans her because of stupidity, stubbornness, and callous whining and wasting of time.

Yes, thank you. I am sorry I didn't mean to say no. I know my English is very simple and broken and I am sorry. Heck, my sign language is 100 times better than my English anyways.

I studied C++ programming language from college years ago however that game engine was made for PS2 in mind. No matter how many pages this thread is creating, what the community rep said still does make sense. Like every time you zone your client always contacts the server for data and that is because of PS2's so tiny memory. The game engine itself hasn't changed a bit after they ended the console service. They are just throwing a plenty of weirdo stuff into the game and awfully having fun with it. Even though, FFXIV's "Take All" button works fine in the modern engine. :)

We've checked with the development team and there are few reasons why this is difficult to implement:

• Under the current system, even if a "Take All" button were added, it would not change the processing speed when receiving all of the items.
  
• Additionally, one would not be able to stop the process once the "Take All" is activated until all items have been placed in the player's inventory. This could be very problematic in situations involving large number of items. For example if there were 50+ items, it would take a long time to load and would prevent the player from moving while this is being processed.

For these reasons, unfortunately the development team is not considering implementing a "Take All" feature for the Delivery Box.

The answer given was incorrect. They assumed I wanted "take all everything"

I want ONLY take all 8 visible, IF all 8 are gil.

They also assumed it was in regard to withdrawal speed, it is not.

So try again.

I know. Not only the programming language I studied. I also studied the internet stuff when I was a senior in high school.

Understanding the delivery box (receive) is not the same thing as the delivery box (send). You want a programmer to create a new function that able to take all up to 8 visible items (gil or not so it doesn't matter what) into your game client. Function stops after all up to 8 items become invisible. I am not an admin of their servers so I can't tell.

To the FFXI staff, would you please ask the dev team if it is possible to create a function like I mentioned above? Thank you.

Edit: Function also stops if the inventory is full.

The dev response was less "it can't be done" and more "If we did this, it wouldn't work very well for this reason that Isola doesn't care about."
His point is that he doesn't care about the processing speed, only about the repeated button presses.

Since I do agree that they fundamentally misnuderstood his suggestion, I suggested to him the smart thing, which is to make a new post with a revised premise so they understand what it is he really cares about. But it seems he'd rather bump an already answered thread than take his own suggestion seriously.

I've suggested numerous ways you can better communicate this to them, but you don't seem as invested in getting your idea as your repeated bumping of an already answered thread would suggest- because you would think you would explore ways to clear up what you feel is an obvious misunderstanding rather than repeatedly bash your head against a wall.

I'm not that invested, but I do like that it annoys you, so

Bump!

Take all gil delivery box option. <yes, please>

Annoyed? Heck no, I'm actually rather amused to see that you like wasting your own time. :)

By all means, carry on. I apologize for thinking you actually cared about this issue. >.>

sockpuppeting isn't very effective either.

Then do as Alhanelem told you to do. . .

Begin a new thread with a "modified correct" question to be answered.

The moderators have already flagged this post as answered to original question; they will not reply to it nor to any bumping or "reworked" questions as it has been 'closed' on their end.

Your best bet to get the answer to your re-adjusted question is to begin a newer thread with it correctly and more detailed given requests.

And fyi, now that i have seen your re-worded and redefined request (which WOULD take a lot less work to do, albeit still a good amount of line but not anywhere near as time consuming or just plain impossible as your original request), i would also like to see an answer.

Then you can make the new thread.

why would we make a thread for you about an issue that only matters to you?

Okay. Why would we make a thread about an issue that matters to you and one other person?

(Maybe that other person is more invested than you and will actually make the wise choice and make a new thread but I guess that's wishful thinking.

Also how about leaving out the personal atacks?

In fact I'll even do you one better and come up with a better (and equally unlikely) idea:

Combine all auction house sales income on the server side, since I really don't need to know which pile of gil came from which sale- we can see when individual items sell on the AH anyway- and have it simply state "The gil you recieved from auction house sales, XYZ gil." If it exceeds the maximum gil amount, then split it off there. That will vastly reduce button presses spent collecting it and is also a good idea and therefore probably won't happen, but there you go. You're welcome.

I'm down for absolutely anything that improves the archaic delivery box AND auction house system. Fully and completely.

I would love if gil from the AH would go straight to my pocket. or to my mog garden box (repository), so that I never have to check it, that would be incredible. I would love if the AH system got an entire ground up overhaul. more items, better search, more competent sale feature (if someone is willing to pay more than the absolute minimum then the highest matching priced item should sell, screw undercutters!). I would love more inventory so players dont use the Dbox as storage. I would love it if I could set up a bazaar without my character having to be there.

All of those things seem impossible. My easiest solution is just to remove double clicking sales. it's really that simple. I just don't want to click 16 times, when one would suffice. The entirety of this game has too damn many extra clicks. Too many confirmations on things that don't NEED confirmations.

And while I'm ranting about UI, I. HATE. that all interactions are not the same. I LOATHE that sometimes the affirmative is the up option and sometimes the affirmative is the down option. That is INFURIATING.

Maybe if stuff sold on the AH then your gil will be sent directly to the chest in Mog Garden so you don't have to worry about too many confirmations? Of course, stuff that are not sold will be sent back to your delivery box and you have to pick them up.

The default being yes or no in confirmations is dependent on how likely the player is going to want to choose a particular option. For things where it's really no big deal whether or not you hit yes or no, they'll make yes the default. But if something like throwing an important item away or cancelling a superweapon quest or something major like that is on the line, they're going to default to the no to make sure you don't just click through it and ruin months or years of work.

I totally get why that is frustrating but there is logic behind it.
