Server-wide /shouts

[Romanova]

I love this feature, and think it's a step in the right direction.

I agree with others that if possible in the future I hope the devs can increase this so all cities use the same yell system. I would love to sit in my nation to access my mog storage/chocobo/etc. without needing to run to jeuno to see shouts.

Such a huge addition to the game that was desperately needed for many years and should have been in the game from the start. It's very nice to see SE is testing this function.

I love this announcement. I've been wanting this for the longest time! I can now not miss out on NM's, pick up events, and other things just because I want to go skill up somewhere...sweet.

[Venat]

I supoort this idea.

[Bumbeen]

screw this. give me an invite channel. ugh.

[Sargent]

Adding a filter is one thing, but you'd probably want to hear /yells if you're in say, Port Jeuno without having to turn the filter on and off everytime you zone in. So, please add an option to filter /yells from other zones.

[Gades]

This is without a doubt the worst idea by far, ever.

You KNOW this channel would be spammed continuously by trolls and therefor would be rendered an annoyance rather than a utility. Why would you even propose such an idea?

-edit- my question was rhetorical, don't try to answer it.

Yay for hyperbole. While we're at it, the common cold will KILL US ALL, tax money has NEVER DONE ANYTHING GOOD EVER, and trolls are CONSIDERED HUMANS as long as they call other people a troll in their post. Worst idea ever? Have you ever watched jackass?

Yell will be abused just as shout, /seacom, and bazaars are abused, but it will serve an important purpose for many of the people who are willing to sift through the turds to find a diamond.

I think a good idea for this, is instead of creating a yell that is heard through out the area, and being barraged by things, also so that you can be in god knows where Castle O or something and still hear shouts in PJ. Of course it would be annoying as hell to be in such an area and getting yells for tele's, noobs asking if they can buy Beastman Seals, and people shouting for yaanie. My solution? Release an item in the game that acts as a vanadiel chat room of sorts that is accessible in game. Much like the Magian Specs. Allow this item to be used freely so that one can see all the shouts within vanadiel and allow this to be regulated so that you can pick certain areas or continents to hear shouts from. This way people can stop crowding up PJ, and maybe actually spread out. I know if I had this type of item i would gladly set my HP back to Windurst and be a lot more happy. I think this would solve crowding in areas, as well as allow people to pick and choose which events they would like to, with out having to sit in PJ all day and be selective on what shouts they jump into.

Also people might actually find better turn outs on shouts if they don't have to be in PJ in order to hear them. I would love to see such an item implemented and I can imagine how many people would love to have such an item. This kinda ranks up there next to my idea of having a home nation warper (much like Windurst's War Warlocks) being stationed in every nation within your home nation's respective embassy so this way you can get back to your home nation. EX: in Bastok a W.W warper in Windurst's Embassy, in Jueno a W.W warper in Windurst's embassy, etc.

I feel these suggestions would greatly increase travel in the game, reduce hassle, reduce congestions, and increase participation within the game.

Yells wont make more or less trolls, trolls can do that for themselves under the current shout systems.
