Summoning Bell...

For the love of anything holy! Crafters, stop making your stuffs on the bell. No one can see the bell, so we have to click on/around you, and it takes forever to find the thing. I understand walking like a foot away from the bell to make something takes time. I do! No, I don't, seriously move so others can access the bell and carry on with their day.

Sincerely,
Person who'd like to use their retainer
:D

Liked. That is all.

Thank God I'm on PS3 and not have that horrible problem.
Since crap loads all slow, I click the bell fast, but when it does load
it's a damn party around that damn bell. Wish we could craft in Inn's.

Use the 0 key (accept) in the numpad. It will usually target the bell... or the nearest minion if you don't have the filters right.

I wish a gate could be placed around the bell. Or maybe your own personal retainer bell you could only use while in city. :/

Jingle jingle this.

Turn player names off and it's almost never an issue!

If we could craft in INN's it would allow some people to abuse certain flaws in FFXIV's code without any of the general population taking notice.

I'm specifically referring to the incident where someone was able to figure out how to change pass along 1 altered value and get max level in a craft instantly. Community only noticed this because it spammed all of his level ups/achievements gained at once.

It's how I go, everyone but my name & pt names turned off. Love it. If you go this, just change the camera angle til you can see the "Summoning Bell" name.

^- This.

I usually encounter the same. By the time all the people around the summoning bell have loaded, I'm done talking to my retainer. I feel sorry for my retainer as she has to go through all those people crowding around the bell :(

lol

<tt> really helps too!

You can use the bell in the INN with no lag.

I agree wholeheartedly.

However, good luck getting anyone to be courteous to others. I remember back in 1.0 people would craft around the guy that gave you synth support because they just couldn't waste those 3 seconds it would take for them to move across the street. Or, they'd just plop down and craft in the middle of main thoroughfares, along with the people bouncing around with their relic weapons out.

It's difficult to get anyone to be courteous in the real world, let alone in a video game.

*shakes head sadly*

The time you just spent trying to find the bell to access it, you could have already went to the inn room and accessed your personal one. I don't see the issue here.
