Cross-server friending needs to happen

I'd totally support a cross-server friend feature. I've saved the names of the GLD, SCH, and ACN that ran Haukke Manor with me. They were so decent and open to my questions, and to our getting stomped during the run at times. No blame games. No temper tantrums. On top of that, some good folks I met during closed beta through the DF are now on Cactuar with me and it's fantastic.

i'm fed up with people that can't control their temper and act like idiots.

i wan't to block them, so i never ever again will end up in duty finder with them.
what's the point even to use duty finder, act like a dick, make everyone leave and after leave yourself.yea, to waste my time -_-

Yes, this would be nice as well.

Another great group, more lost friends.

Bump because I think this should happen, once all the server issues are sorted.

Bump.

I just ran a great Wanderer's with Vivio Takamachi & Motoko Gettou of Midgard and Kinpira Kinlesca of Excalibur. Prob never gonna meet them again, though :(.

I totally support both ideas: friend list to keep in touch with nice players, block feature to never cross paths with ***** again. (though, admittedly, if the former doesn't happen, then the latter has few chances to happen as well, but that's besides the point).

Wholeheartedly agree. I've met some great players (and people) in DF and I would've loved to add them ; ;. One of them even asked "add me to your friends please" and it broke my heart when I knew I would probably never meet those players again...

Please Yoshi-P, think about this, find a way to code this. Adding people from other servers and talking to them cross-server would be so great and would bring a lot to the community.

I think it might have come up in discussion about allowing cross-server friending. Problem is in how to talk to said friends. I think /tell can't talk outside of server. And I don't think it should. Before you flame me, think about how many problems the duty finder and instance servers have had since launch. Those are the only servers able to communicate with other servers at present. Piggyback on them /tell traffic and you get issues like before. Honestly, I think it'd probably be better if they added cross-server to the mail system, like done in XI with it's messaging system. I could get behind that.

After reading through thread, I'm not sure how they would implement some of these things, but I really hope they do something/anything to allow you to communicate through game again with ppl that you've met through duty finder or ppl that happen to be on a different server already that you meet later on! I would love to group up with duty finder with some ppl in RL that are not on my server.

Most importantly , I wholeheartedly agree that we need a way to block ppl we never want to be grouped with in duty finder again.

Of course, as others stated, there are other things that can be worked on at the moment but no reason not to have the requests of what we want in the future out there. I would say FFXIV has done a pretty good job implementing features that were requested -- even if it took a while.

so do u have to be on the same world to look for your friend????????????????????????????
i want to be able to run around with one of my buddys that just got the game but when i look up his name theres nothing
