1. But there were 1 English /shout in SS(although it's not skirmish 3), and 1 JP VW /shout that's apparently accepting English player. In fact I just checked FFXI AH /shout channel 1 min ago and I saw 3 English /shout going on: 1 AA GK normal, 1 Foret 1~4, and 1 Einherjar T3. This isn't even NA prime time.So your argument is not legit.

I honestly don't know HOW there wouldn't be 1 single English /shout for days.

2. It is possible to join JP /shout on BRD and SCH, true story. I have tons of friends got into JP /shout on BRD SCH because they're desperate. If you use windower just google translate copy/paste stuff. Tumz complained he had issue with the number of /shout, and apparently JP /shout more often than NA, may as well just join JP /shout.

3. I just translated every JP /shout in SS, apparently "You regularly join shouts you can't read" isn't true. I can read it, and if I have BRD I'd regularly join them already. Even without BRD I joined some of their /shout back when my job were wanted in 18 man version delve. If I use windower/JP client they probably can't tell I'm not a JP thanks to google.....that's how I join tons of JP /shout back when I play ARR before JP onry mentality become a norm. If the lack of /shout is really that much of a big deal, may as well try to solve the issue with google translate, instead of complaining on OF.
