The new seek invite function

[kukurumei]

All of those things exist in the current party search system.

I'm not going to go over how the Recruitment feature works normally but will go over the new functionality.

For the Person Seeking Party.

1. Go to Party > Recruit> and set purpose to "Seek invite"
2. In the comment box, say what you want to do and other misc. information.
3. What this does is add you to a list similar to FFXI, except its worldwide instead of region locked.

For the Leader looking for members.

1. Go to Party>Search> and set purpose to "Seek invite".
2. Most important step, Go down to the class (it defaults on gladiator) and put it to the class you want to recruit. Set it to gladiator if you want a gladiator, Marauder if you want marauders.
3. Press Search.
4. The results will show all players of that specific class who are seeking invites.
5. If you manage to find anyone using the system, i'm jealous

With the Seek Invite functionality, Party Leaders can now put up a regular recruitment as a revenue for players to join and also head hunt while he's doing it. The seeker can seek invite and also search for open party recruitment.

Here are my list of features and changes that would improve the system.

• Visual Seek Invite flag that appears next to the name of the seeker, similar to FFXI.
• A new visual hud element that shows how many party leaders have open recruits. The number displayed could be either how many total are searching or how many that you can join specfically
• Allow Party leaders to select "no class" or "all classes" to show all avialiable seekers, not limiting the list to a specific class.

Visuals communicate. The only reason why the system doesn't get results now is because people ignore and disregard it, believe that other people ignore and disregard it, are confused about the functionality, and do not believe it actually functions. Visuals would make people aware of it, and the biggest thing the system needs. I hope that the suggestions I have made as a person who consistently tries to use the current system are reachable under the current development circumstances.

Not that simple since it's about 20 steps more then an already established FF11 method. Kinda like MWs to the efficiency of AH.

You can't directly invite them (because the invite system is also crippled) you can't communicate, and you can't cross reference. (if they picked U'ath and you picked none, nothing shows up)

Worse of all, you can't even distinguish features due to the broken(aka nonexistant) /sea system.
