Question regarding party finder and clear sales.

[Shineko]

So, I'm not entirely sure if this goes against any community guidelines, or is just a grief-like thing to do. But I've been seeing a lot of people using party finder for clear sales, but using a completely different duty to advertise. Like "Selling Shinryu EX + Omega Savage" while PF is flagged for expert roulette. My question is simply, is this something reportable as griefing-like, or what?

As long as they are selling this for Gil, it doesn't matter what type of Dungeon is flagged in PF.
However, if they put $(real money mention) in it, you can report those players directly (+screenshot).

Short answer: No.

I think its something the dev team should address, people intentionally mis-listing this kinda of stuff makes looking through PF a bit more annoying. And if they are advertising cross server for a clear sell they are likely asking for real money since you can't trade gil to someone on a different server.

Does blacklisting hide PF parties? If it does then that could be one solution to badly listed groups.

Sadly it does not

What conclusion has led you into thinking they're griefing?

Who is the target of their griefing?
Why?
And most importantly, how?

They are intentionally abusing PF by posting under the wrong listings(typically Expert Roulette or Lakshimi Ex) and spamming up PF and in some case using PF for RMT(selling clears cross server). Yesterday at one point 3 of the first 5 PF listings were people selling clears under the wrong headings, that's a problem.

If they're asking for real money then it's RMT, which is reportable.
If they're selling a clear for gil and can't prove or refuse to prove that they can clear the content they are advertising and demand gil first clear second then it's likely a scam, also reportable.
Griefing, however, this is not.

How is intentionally mislabeling their clear selling under Expert Roulette and Lakshmi Ex in order to spam up the top of the PF list not griefling?
