I recommend getting a bottle of good dark rum or good whiskey, popping them in the freezer until they are nice and thick and then pouring a generous portion over your fudge ice-cream.

Mmm ... boozy ice-cream.

Raspberry sorbet and chilled port are also great together.

While I can imagine there are very likely some technical limitations at play when it comes to some of the suggestions given here, I still have to agree that more should be done in regards to these problems. Perhaps SE needs to review some of the complaints and suggestions and acknowledge the player base as to what can/will be done within their means. And I totally agree more action should be taken against those who sexually harass other players. It's bad enough anyone has to deal with that irl, but to also get it when they're enjoying a game and trying to have fun? That's just as unacceptable.

Damn still shows me as an au ra on a side note I was joking kids best advice don't let an ex ruin a game you like seeing them or not had the same thing more or less happen though sometimes a good old fashioned drink athon works. XD

Also thanks for being a good sport about my joke sometimes a bad joke can help lighten a bad situation a bit. ^.^ best of luck to ya *pet pet* just remember lala beats everything even meanies like that.

I suggest leaving your DC if this worries you that much...

What I learned with FFXIV:

As much as we wish more can be implemented into the game, I'll tell you the same thing I told another forum awhile back. The reason a lot of suggestions are held off, isn't because of the PS3's original limitations. Otherwise, there'd be no point in getting rid of it for storm blood if we still cannot have much better things. The answer to all the issues? Answer: 1.0 coding.

Many people don't realize just how much of FFXIV 1.0's coding is STILL in this game. And as we all know, 1.0 gawd awful. It was the worst MMORPG for its time. It made FFXI look like a teddy bear in comparison. I understand that some may think this to be saying too much, but it's not. Coding can play many factors into their projects. The problem comes down to how much 1.0 coding is still in the game that needs to be removed. Yoshi-P once stated in a live letter at FanFest interview (off stage), building one project and making sure it works, while also checking all other parts of the game to ensure that no other part breaks, makes the job stressful for the issue.

Say we make 5 brand new entirely new pieces to add to the theme park and suddenly other parts of the game start breaking down:

-An old ride that's been forever suddenly stops working (limsa can't port in or port out and changing zones is negated)

-A ride that's fairly new has minor issues (mobs stop at 1% and won't die)

-Black Hole of Susano.

-Rauhban Extreme.

-Pippin Extreme.

-Lakshmi's Nightmares.

Those 5 new pieces that were officially added, just happened to be part of the coding now offset some of the older mechanics or zones for 1.0, and caused that shipwreck for some of the newer content just added. Now, the developers have to put in even more emergency maintenance to fix a game that was supposed to be available to play that tuesday night. This has happened many times before. So I can understand why a lot of the designs we love or really want, haven't been implemented yet. Until all of 1.0 is vanished from this game, the game is stuck in a standstill and all suggestions for the time being are somewhat null and void. This is the same reason the games base will not change or has not changed since ARR's original release over 3+ years the game has been actively running.

1/2 - new dungeons.
1 - new 24man raid with lockout piece.
1 - set of tomes and lockout for 450/500 times a week.
1 - set of savage or harder content with lock out a week.
1/2 - new primals to kill with no lock out but called "extreme" even though it's basically just a reskin of the original fight without indicators and hits harder.

As Ilea has stated, all it does is grey out the parties he posts on pf. thats it.

All i can say is just ignore him if he causes any trouble.

no you can't, blackisting blocks the ring

Blacklisting doesn't stop you seeing the character in game, Unacceptable.
Blacklisting doesn't stop them from using an Eternal Bond teleport directly to you, Unacceptable.
Blacklisting doesn't prevent in-game mail from anyone previously added as a friend, Unacceptable.
Blacklisting doesn't stop you from getting matched in duties, Unacceptable. (I've been matched with two blacklisted players in the same light-party...)
Blacklisting doesn't for some reason, stop the player blacklisted, from seeing what you say... this is really, really bad, Unacceptable! (/say /fc /ls /party etc)

Please update the Blacklist with these needed suggestions!

wrong, it does

I know first hand experience blacklisting blocks a ring from an experience last year, around 3.4.. yeah just after 3.4 We where even face to face at one point in uldah, and when she took me off it worked.

I recall the black hole of Susano (if you were in a persistent emote when accepting the queue, the game would lock your avatar into the transistion after the fight. You could'nt log in or anything. Weirdest game breaks I've ever seen!) but what was Lakshmi's nightmare?



I guess if Blacklisting can't outright remove the player from our experience, then they should call it for what it is: "Mute this player."

Sorry to hear about your loss. The thing to keep in mind is although it hurts now it would hurt even more later so it is better that he didn't lead you on. While it might not look like it now there is someone better down the road. I know it certainly took my spouse and I more than a few folks before we were able to meet and connect. As proof we've just celebrated our 35th year of marriage. So my suggestion is to take some time and do something for yourself and try to have some fun.

As far as blacklisting I look at it as part of playing privacy which FF XIV doesn't seem to do to well. Blacklisting should stop all two way communications be it via chat or the mail. It should also filter DF so you cannot end up in an instance with a blacklisted player. Since dungeon groups are finite it isn't like they have to worry about millions of permutations. Add to the blacklist needs that of needing more granularity than busy to allow playing with minimal disturbances.

That really sucks OP, I'm sorry you had to go through that.
