Party finder advertising

I too think that is a great idea for the FFXIV devs to use in the future. Less of the same words along the lines of "discord" and "selling", the better IMO. Though I did enjoy mounting the names of those discord seller players on my blacklist walls [as then Crown Prince Varis yae Galvus would have put my feelings into words.]

I'm blacklisting 2-3 PF run sellers every single day at this point. It's becoming a bigger and bigger problem and SE is going to have to address it sooner or later. My blacklist is already full and I am being forced to remove people from the front of the list to make room for the accelerating amount of PF sellers popping up recently. And simply saying "blacklist and move on" as the solution to every single inappropriate player is not a valid solution with such a small blacklist limit. The purpose of the blacklist was only ever meant to be a last resort for removing the most egregious of disrespectful players when no other avenue of addressing their behavior was working. It should not and cannot be the catch-all solution to all bad player behavior.

The day that added the right click > report RMT function they went back into their holes and spammed capital cities only, where they are reported endlessly.

My blacklist got fully wiped when I went from Cerberus to Odin (Like 1-2 months before 5.0 launch). Only time I added anyone was with the run sellers in the PF and the fact it's getting nearly 50% of the PFs at any one time are from people doing sales for runs in game.

Let’s action 18+ brothel ads in the t-rated game while we’re at it.
