QoL request regarding social tools

Lately I've been thinking of some potential improvements to the social tools and features we're given in-game. Here's my wish list:

1) Allow us to invite to linkshells by clicking the player's name in a /tell. Having to use player search to send invites shouldn't be a thing.

2) Blacklisting in duties.

3) Allow blacklisting the party leader from the PF window, and also implement an optional PF filter for parties led by the people one has blacklisted.

4) A Free Company search feature which works the same way as player search. A way to browse FCs wouldn't be a bad idea either.

5) Each player's last login date should visible in the LS window to help maintain an active LS.

What are your thoughts?

Other people's suggestions:

3) Account-wide blacklisted (For those special stalker types that figure out you blacklisted them, so they create an alt just to harass you..)

The account-wide bit should be priority!

I agree with all of these Reinha. May I also add

-Wheb reporting someone under RMT suspicions, automatically blacklist them in a blacklist menu made specifically for RMT. It can be auto-cleaned once it reaches max limit.

I joined a Duty Roulette (waiting in Queue) that had two players on my blacklist, and I only have two players on my blacklist, what are the chances I was to be paired with the only two players I don't ever want to see, hear or do anything with.

Please, make it so blacklisted players are:

1) Totally made Invisible to YOU (Can't see character, messages or even the name in any list apart from your blacklist page)
2) Cannot be paired in duties with anyone on your blacklist (I thought this was already a thing, but no)

Blacklist only really seems to affect the chat box huh?

And in a half-assed way the party finder. You can't join one that someone on your blacklist is in. And I think it works vice-versa

It does indeed work vice-versa. Friend wanted me to help them with something but party leader had me blacklisted (because he thought I was trying to get with her because she did a roulette with me). So I couldn't help them.

^^^^^ THIS

I added your suggestions to the OP. By the way, is it true that we are getting cross world Linkshells in patch 4.2? If so, that's a great improvement. I wonder if the capacity of Linkshells will be increased as well.

i want to sort my linkshells :(

Let us renumber linkshells

Will like the 4).
A "FC search" feature, listing the FC open to recruitment matching the options you have in FC panel when you flag it as open for recruitment. And be able to send an application, ofc.

I forgot....

STOP FC MEMBERS BE ABLE TO PUT OTHER MEMBERS AT HIGHER RANK THAN THEM
if they have rank permissions.

Let us add alts to our Friendlists.
OR
Let us have a method to trade between characters on the same service account.

Let us send stuff to any player even if they're not on your friend list FC or linkshell. Or if you want them to be on a list add something like to a temporary so that we can mail anyone it's just stupid that we have to have them on the friend list almost kind of destroys the mail system i.e. makes it worthless unless of course they're on your friend list.

# something) A way to show the "before name" of someone before they fantasia to do a name change. It gets annoying and awkward sending the tell of "Hiii! Now I'm sure we were great amazing friends and had lots of super fun adventures together! Who are you again?" over and over and over.
