What is it bannable for skipping Msq cutscene? Or are u guys trolling??? This is confusing

Yes it is. It's considered disrupting other peoples gameplay.

Forgot to ask which msq cutscene are they talking about?

[Rasikko]

Probably Nero's "Why Im not the last boss of ARR" speech anf Gais showcasing how awesome cast glamour and dying is.

Also Lol GCBTW indeed.

The cutscenes in Castrum Meridianum and The Praetorium, any of them.

Keep pressing your luck. You might be surprised one day. People have received bans for doing what YOU CLAIM you do.

Yeah, if it happens so be it. I have also heard of people getting suspensions for some weird shit that I also do. Either I am super lucky, or it is the fact that I do not type out much of anything in game so even if people report me the GM gives me the benefit of the doubt and moves on since they have no in game record.

Kind of like buying Gil sure it is against the ToS but if the person keeps their mouth shut in game I am willing to bet no action ever gets taken against their account.

It sort of is, but if you are not open about it in game it is sort of hard to prove you are doing it on purpose. The ingame GM's are evidence driven they often do not take action without hard evidence. So if you are not open about it chances of them taking action is slim. Granted the chance remains, but I would say it is not very high.

Are they skippable now??

[Awha]

Are they skippable now??

They are if you want them to be.:P

Actually if everyone in group already did MSQ and watched cut scenes already there is no point showing cut scene over and over. Only activate cut scene if there is a first timer in group.
Game at current state already boring enough forcing you to do things that you don't want to do for leveling (POD / MSQ etc.)
My suggestion: Make alternate leveling methods preferably enjoyable one people will abandon MSQ in no time. Turn MSQ into solo dungeon if people have to do it for quest, dungeon offers no challenge and no reason to get in with full party.

No thanks I like it as is and the people running it daily seem to not mind as well.

Edit: the point isn't to watch the cutscens which has been said multiple times. No one has a gun to your head making you watch. Go pee, pet your pet, take out the trash. Anything. You have the time.

Ok, so would you be ok with reduced rewards auto applied to the instance if everyone had seen the cutscenes and they were skippable?

Because skippable cutscenes means less exp and gil for the run.. im talking 1/3 a level on Prea compared to almost a full level with watching cutscenes.

The rewarded exp we have now IS the reward for watching the cutscenes.. its for taking a new player threw the instance.. its to get people in Q for the duties.. same with all the roulettes..

Maybe they should add a detection to the MSQ if you D/C you have to reQ for the roulette again or maybe you D/C your rewards are cancelled.. so even if you finish you get nothing for ruining it for other people..

And yes before you ask.. my Prea and Castrum were ruined by people before the forced Cutscenes were in.. i tried watching them and missed most of the fights and just had to skip the rest..
