Make the linkshell for the officers only. Problem sovled.

With that said, I'm cool if they increased the cap. I don't know why people are against it. Yes, give me more of everything please!

This is the second time someone has suggested that we "use a linkshell."

What problem would this solve for us, and how would it solve it?

Pretty simple. Disperse commands through your officers via a linkshell. It's actually not that hard to figure out.

Hey, we are going to do AK runs, got anyone on your side?
Um yeah, let me ask. Yeah we do. There name is ThisISn't Abigdeal
Sweet, I'll invite them.

I didn't say it was freaking ideal, but it's not impossible to use a LS to coordinate the two FC. Explained enough?

Edit: There is no effective way to coordinate 700 people with a chat feature. If that is what you're looking for you'll never find it. Make a guild website, coordinate there, use a LS to coordinate between FC's and use your officers to disperse commands.

My post never suggested to "just use a linkshell". A hammer is cool, but it's hard to cut a cake with it. Use the tools available in the best way possible. And don't "call out" people that point out how to do so. Not like this is brain science.

like you said not everyone are on the same time, why not make an alliance of FC, using LS as bridge between it.

A Linkshell can only have 128 people. It is not even close to a solution for any of this.

I guess that brings me back to asking why you feel the need to be in the same FC if you don't use it to socialize.

Because the FC chat tends to be more directly game related - organizing dungeon runs, FATE parties, etc. Things that are far more important to be in a single chat, as opposed to split into multiple.

Pretty simple. Disperse commands through your officers via a linkshell. It's actually not that hard to figure out.

Because dedicating a few poor saps to being literal message runners is such a fabulous game experience... It's a hacky, garbage "solution" and you all know it.

It's essentially what we have to resort to right now, and it's awful.

"Just use linkshells" was (and is) absolutely your suggestion and absolutely not a solution.

We would need to have several people to gopher requests for groups between two free companies. (We're already doing this and it's a terrible non-solution to our problem.)

As for your other suggestion "get a guild website." We've had a private web forum since 1.0 (even earlier if you count our parent website). How could we not, when we're a private group that requires membership validation?

I understand you're trying to be helpful but all you're really doing is wasting your daily post count offering suggestions that we're already doing and finding inadequate.
