Square Enix wants you to forget that the stalking issue still isn't fixed

You're so worried about it, that you raced to the forums to deliberately create a thread in order to ... martyr yourself? To strangers on an MMO forum?

And this was a worthwhile use of your time?

Since they upgraded the block list, it seems to be a very big issue. But they failed to implement it correctly. If they want to do it right then the block list has to be implemented on the server. But implementing it on the server side means, it will push more load on their servers. And since SQEX is a small indie company, which has absolutely no money, they implemented it on the client. Because they can externalize the costs for it.

It's not a case of forgetting, its a case of realising it wont be changed and just giving up.

Basically, put up with it or quit.

This load on their servers would cost them at most a few thousand dollars. This is peak penny pinching from SE.

Just realized they deleted the thread. This is beyond pathetic.

Don't worry Yoshi promised LEGAL ACTION against the plugin users. Surely Yoshi wouldn't be talking completely out of his ass.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone literally committed murder through FF14, Square Enix will still not deign to do anything.

Well it's not working. I still remember.

I absolutely see if a proper fix is infeasible, not sufficiently viable, and they just can't do it
BUT then they HAVE to roll back to before blacklisting applied to accounts, and just go back to blacklisting specific charaters, and keep the accounts away from the frikin clients.

They can always put a severside account blacklist on the roadmap they put speech bubbles on.

It is doable. But it will cost them more money.
