Thanks for the guest book

Should post this after live letter, but forgot for some reason lol

Thanks for adding the guest book, the item I’ve been asked for almost a year

Wish we have more options in future (oriental scroll guest book, wall hanging guest book, retainer desk guest book etc)

Cheers o/

——————————————

Edit:

Glad to know so many ppl love the guest book just like me lol

So here goes one more request,
Can we have additional teleport option? (i.e. By clicking the name on message book, show the teleport option like friendlist)

——————————————

And a great idea base on #30, make a housing list (houses with a guest book) each server with teleport option
Can consider using the same form with apartment list or friendlist

No one's used mine yet. :(

A lot of people are still busy with new content. The touring will start when they get bored with it.

Besides, that gives people time to update their housing with new items if they want. There are a lot of neat new items that weren't previewed in the patch notes.

*nod* He gets it. Not everyone's done with the patch stuff yet.

Personally, I plan on doing a housing guestbook run on my server once I have the time, but still going through all the new things because of limited playtime.

I'll be fun to visit people's houses and actually being able to leave comments about them!

Signs all your geustbooks with "call me baby, 855-493-199<3 *wink*"

I'm 100% ready to start touring houses and leaving "Clean your stable" as the comment.

In all seriousness I'm pretty hyped to be able to tell people how great their houses are once a good one is found. This server is sadly flooded with so many empty/untouched houses, it's sad. I've seen some that haven't seen a single change at all for months, at most just getting random holiday furniture thrown into it. ;_;

You got the number wrong. It's 867-5309. ;-)

I'm totally going to start leaving the Clean your stable comment. I was planning on starting my tours this weekend. :-D

True. My FC leader said the same thing. I just relocated a couple days before patch and have been in the process of redecorating and I wanted to do something completely different than my old house.

Just wish I knew when the aquarium fix was coming. Afraid of putting one in the house right now and it's going to be the center piece of the bar/rec room I'm building in the basement.

I live in a really empty server but I spent sooo much time decorating my friend's mansion in Shirogane and I wish people would come look at it. But so far, no messages and I doubt that even after people clear up content that they'll look around subdivision wards on my server. Hahaha. Too bad! :(

I've already had a couple of bored ward jokesters write something lame as hell in my FC's guestbook... (seriously...) Comment moderation turned on now. >_> Plus a "first", and a "second". That's it.

If only more people would pop around writing things more interesting to read. I think in some off hours I might go from ward to ward looking at what others have done and leaving feedback/compliments.

Marlboro server- lavender beds- ward 12... I await comments

I got my first comment today and it was a really nice compliment to see after kind of a rough day. I was convinced nobody random had ever been in my house, so I guess this proves that's not the case.

I used to know when people went into my old house in Mist. I had a coffin in the basement and would go downstairs and find it open on occasion when I always kept it closed.

...thats scary, because strangers who come into your house cant interact with your stuff, including the coffin...

Really? Ok, that's odd then. Because I always kept it closed. :/ Wonder of it was just a glitch or something.

A friend spotted my guestbook and promptly signed it, I'm not expecting much beyond that since I never seem to see people running around in the wards.

Signed my first book today! Hope they feel good that someone likes their digs

I've actually been running around several wards in Mist looking for books lol >< if anyone's on Adamantoise server come drop by Ward 5 Plot 36 or in Shirogane Ward 5 plot 42 :O

Just visited your houses, looked nice lol

You can visit mine at Shirogane W18 P59 (other house addresses can be found on the message book)

I'm already touring, gotta stop to wait for the likes allowance to catch up :(

I'm up to 15 likes and several comments (though the comments are all from FC members). Have not been able to find a house in my ward with a message book, though.

I'm on Brynhildr, Shiro Ward 5, Plot 49 down by the beach (still can't believe someone let this go and I managed to snag it). Can't miss it with the giant Namazu in the front yard.

I had visitors last night which surprised me! Came back to two new messages. I wish I could track one of the folks down since they're a kindred spirit. They spotted my D&D set up for what it was. Welp, time to start hunting wards to see if they have houses.

I love the guest books. I was way into home invasions even before the addition, hell even before I had my own house.

I have been going all over searching for houses with them. I always leave an assessment of what I liked. I also leave my house info to try to entice them to visit and sign my book.

Now if only I could convince some one to funnel hearts into my book.

Gilgamesh Mists ward 13 plot 37. Come by and visit!

Sadly Marlboro is so small that not alot of people seem to care about housing... we have empty plots still... most homes and apartments are unfurnished or severely under furnished... I have a plan to funnel in some people to my house but it's gonna be tricky

I called out in my ward and got exactly one nice lady 2 sign. No other sigs except hers and my hubby's since the first day. Waste of a craft/deco space.

Come visit me and sign with your spot info and I would be happy to come sign yours :)

I love my new guest book, because I don't use it as a guest book. I just stuck it on my desk next to my retainer bell and record my gross profit and current gil count to track just how much Gil I'm earning every week cross-checked with my expenses. This actually makes my in-game housing workspace a practical place since it helps me keep track of the profits I'm making on the MB.

Gotta love it! :)

Glad to see ppl love the guest book, seems like it’d better to have the teleport option on message book like what we have on friendlist

Just edited my request lol

Wish we’ll get it soon

Somebody could also start a spreadsheet, with tabs per server, so that anybody who has a guestbook can add their location. People who want to find guestbooks can take a look there and then head out to go book-hunting. Sort it by district/ward, and you can even see who in your ward has books.

It would be a lot of organization, but until there's an official solution...

There are people on Sargatanas touring every house from Eorzean Estates Facebook group and leaving nasty messages in books out of spite because of decorator beef on Facebook. It’s so juvenile. People don’t get the commission so they go to that same house and bash the decorator who got the commission instead of them. This is complete misuse and why there are moderating options. I’ve seen more bad from good with message book so far. This right here is why we can’t have nice things, players take a good thing and misuse it.

This is why they turned on comment moderation. Nasty messages were my biggest beef with the book ahead of time, and they solved that by letting us choose what displays. You're always going to have terrible people, but at this point their 'revenge' is ineffectual, since the estate owner can just delete the comment before anyone sees it. And then they've wasted their "one comment a day", anyway.

Our guestbook has had a few messages from neighbours, friends popping by, but mostly it's the FC using it to leave messages for each other lol :D

Omg that's a great idea!

I tried to create a thread in my servers forum, called it the "parade of homes" for people to list houses they want visitors to. It received no replies.

This google docs is a great idea I'll see what I can drum up this weekend.

Love this idea

Or we can simply make a housing search tool just like player search, all houses with a guest book can be shown on the list with teleport option

Yeah, I only meant this as a solution until SE does something in-game. Since we know how long it can take them.
