Server-wide /shouts

[Nevens]

I support this idea
the widest range of /shout, the better

Ability to find people with ease will make this game much enjoyable
for the haters, just turn on your /shout filter, and let others players having fun partying together

A wider shout would be nice. Perhaps a /broadcast to region or a way to access these boards while inside the game.

ok well i think SE should just connect Port San d’Oria,Port Bastok,Heavens Tower,Port Jeuno and maybe whitegate with a special shout so they can speard people from Port Jeuno.

This. *grumbles about the massive necessary proofreading*

Then do so.

What the shit does that even mean? I'm dictating how people play the game because I suggest that people turn off shouts they don't want to see?

[Nevens]

seriously, some people are depressing
I dont understand. /shout bothers you, set your filter, problem solved (less than 3 secs..., mind you)

I want to enjoy the game whenever I can play. I want to be able to log and setup a party easily and quickly.
/shout is a tool to meet some people. How do I find people for a mission fight? How do I find people for abyssea ?
Being able to reach/being reach by the widest audience will make these tasks easier.
This game is hard because it's hard to get people. Actually most of fights are easy, the hard part is gathering a party.
It shouldn't be this way.

Exactly. FFXI emphasizes grouping more so than many other MMO's but it does a bad job of helping you easily do so. Good luck to anyone trying to get through CoP/AU/Wings/Addons/Assaults or any of the other niche crap that are nearly impossible to find help on.

Effectively. The only reason I haven't globally disabled shouts is for events where shouting basically is the only means of effective communication to everyone in the area.
