... What? Don't come in here with this crap. Most people who play this game don't rp, and of those that do there's a big section of it that are males.

Anyway I didn't know there was a limit on posts here and I hit it yesterday lol. What I was going to say about people talking about Fellowships is that the system just isn't that great atm, and yes I have tried to use them. I hope they somewhat fix it in the future. I don't mind using it if they do so.

As I said, in an ideal world it would be as you say, but the community of this game has passed a fine line of ERP.

I saw that as well. The arms race for the customers and therefore the gil has produced what we're dealing with now.

Oh sorry, sorry, didn't mean to mention women in your sacred chat lol I'll go.

Game. Set. Match.

All of you pearl clutching prudes on a holy war need to keep to your savage content, shut up and go home. Sit down before you fall down. I'm only quoting you to accent my point, and I don't mean this comment towards you, OP /hugs.

lol I had completely forgot about the hidden springs side quest! That's a good one too

Nah, it's just a baseless assertion to say what you've said without anything to back it up.

You got evidence to back that claim up?

No you are seriously being a complete troll atm. The way you phrased it, you assume most women who play don't want to do normal content, raid, etc. You also make it seem like there isn't a large amount of men who rp and enjoy that content. Sexist comment.

i do want to know from where did you get that info? there is no official poll, or any way to see how only 5% of the player population are the role players, when about 65% of the population (as per all DCs) havent clear eden in savage based in the last fflogs data

edit to add numbers
FF current players 24,255,566
5% = 1,212,778 (refered as the amount of role players)
65% = 15,766,117 (refered as the amount of ppl without raiding data)

You know, seeing all these people saying to try "word of mouth" have probably never even been the one whose had to advertise. I've actually tried Shouting and telling friends about it I've even brought rp venues up in dungeons. I've never had anything but good experiences using party finder to bring in customers. To see the only thing that has worked become no longer an option would be bloody demoralizing

When I started MMOs, word of mouth was the only way any groups got together and met. Even today with my current group it wasn't any system or advertising method that got us together it was literally just a "Hey, lets group up and farm" followed by "here's a discord if you want to chat". Every successful group I've been in has been almost completely done by word of mouth, including some that were over 100 members strong, the members that come in from other avenues tend to leave very quickly.
