Pause and Think before Shouting

I hate to generalize but a large portion of the FF fanbase can be pretty snobby. They can be likened to people who turn up their noses at common action flicks and movies like Porky's and Freddy Got Fingered. This is how we end up with the whole "I can't be bothered by the /sh you n00bs! I'm over here smelling my own farts."

I myself am kind of snooty about RPGs because I base everything against Chronotrigger and FFII/IV and FFIII/VI but that's about the extent of that.

Here, this should summarize the common FF community:

I like to shout about my bowel movements

i refuse to think about that

Fkn hippies...

Spam shouting can be a pain but using the search party feature is even worst. I've tried several things in the last server I was, trying to get parties and still felt a ghost town (♪) ...even the NPCs interacted more than them sometimes.

I might be too used to shouts that I dont see them so bad now and I'm not defending the shout spammers but remember that in Ul'dah unless you are crafting people come and go a lot... so shouting from time to time can make a difference to some people. I wish the community to get use more to "search party" but sadly right now /shout helps more...

Agree with the whole people shouting for an invite. Those people can fall off a pier when the tide is out.

Shouting conversations I can just kind of ignore them and be fine...except for certain types of shouts I see sometimes. Basically just 'drama' shouts. You know, * is such a * etc. (admittedly this doesn't happen often) or people whining about the community in shouts. Yes it is annoying that no one is using the search feature, that said does anyone really think insulting the community saying stuff like "they ask for search feature then don't use it because it isn't identical to FFXI's" helps? Anyways to me the two sort of merge into one group of "I want some attention".

Note this is in-game shout, whine as much as you want on the forums that's what they're there for.
