Please fix this annoying issue!

The one where you go to teleport and some idiot trades with you at the last minute, canceling your teleport.

lmao.
Have to admit, I get a good few laughs off that.

I don't see how that's remotely funny unless you like making others annoyed at you.

That sounds hilarious (might have to try it sometime)

Typing /busy before teleporting prevents this from happening now. And then /busy again after you are done teleporting to resume normal operations.

Lol sorry. I love this "feature" I do it go FC members all the time. It's a good laugh

My first or second day playing this game I had someone follow me across 2-3 zonelines doing this over and over. I ended up reporting them to a GM for harassment.

you guys must have some real jerks on your server since I didn't even know you could have that happen.

Blacklist also works if it's some random stranger doing it.

wow.... some people really have nothing else productive to do!

Have fun! Cause they've stated you can get in trouble for it.

Don't really see why its funny though. Not like the person loses the gil, not like it really does anything other then make you look annoying. >_>

I do this to friends... but we do it to each other all the time.
I don't know why you'd do this to a random stranger, that's not funny. That's annoying.

It doesn't happen often, but get a group of friends from different FCs together hellbent on being aggravating (especially when you're mining or gathering for timed items) and it gets really old really fast.

Don't do it to anyone. Deliberately inconveniencing other people isn't funny.

Using trades to prevent players from teleporting is a form of harrassment.

I agree that it should be 'fixed'; do not allow other players to cancel your teleports.

While this is a workaround, doesn't it make more sense for the person attempting to do the trade to simply receive the message "target busy" when the target is in the middle of a teleport?

I mean, how would we feel about this if trading could pull you out of retainer interaction, mailbox usage, a cutscene, etc?

Some jerk did that to me before too. I came close to reporting him. I don't see anything funny about it.

By far, one of the most overlooked QoL changes we need. The potential for abuse is enormous.

I have a friend who spams me with invites when I'm teleporting and she's around.

It's still very annoying and I'd rather her not do it.
