Pause and Think before Shouting

[Krausus]

That would work much better if /say covered a large area, and /sh was the entire zone. Or, perhaps, if a zone is huge it could cover your sub-zone (ex: Black brush area, but not so far as Horizon).

threw in a quick edit, restrictions and such

As whole-hearted I feel your request is Stanislaw, and as much as I appreciate it, people just don't care. Even if this did any good at all, give it one month and things would be back to normal. You can't teach people common sense and courtesy. You just can't. They take offense at a very fundamental level.

One thing I don't get... why NA players put @1/8 ?? If they trying to copy the JP players using @ that @ means.

@ = Ato = Remaining like 2 more spots open @2

They probably use @ as 'at', meaning, 'currently' and doesn't quite understand how us JPs use it. And yes I agree it's annoying as someone who can read both languages. =P

Oh and also... for love of subligar god.. don't use google translate to post JP version of the shout... it turns out horrible, makes no sense at all lol (fun to read also....lol)

How could I ever forget those? XD Man are those translations horrible. I understand their good intentions in trying to communicate with us, but because the translation result is hideous, you're better off using auto-translate.

Actually Stanislaw I think this might work perfectly for what you are looking for it would give you and others that feel the same way the perfect solution whilst leaving /sh for socialization. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-shout-channel

I actually attempted one after /random was put in!!! Hahahaha! Surprisingly, I didn't get any flames - nor takers.

even if they "fix" the LFP and make the game more like XI, which I still don't understand WHY people want this game to lose it's uniqueness and be JUST like its lower grade counterpart, I myself will still use /sh to strum up convorsation, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Heck even on XI I would shout random things in Jeuno and Aht Urgahn just to get a laugh out. Like: /propose "Who pwns this server?" "Chuck Norris" "Sadow Lord" "OCTAGON" hahahaha...good times good times

Oh yeah, I remember doing that stuff... /propose in shout was awesome.

Before you post, think about what you are saying. Final Fantasy XI has outperformed Final Fantasy XIV on every level possible. Right now, it is outperforming FFXIV in terms of revenue brought in, total playerbase, content, etc. To say that FFXIV is FFXI's "Lower Grade Counterpart", almost makes me believe that you are trolling.

On topic however. I like the idea of a specialized /sh channel.

one should not use a 10 year old games revenue and amount of content as a comparison to a 1.5 year old game....just sayin.

I'm not talking about over-all revenue. I'm talking about current, monthly-subscription based revenue.

I'm sure you know which game is in the lead.

200,000 subs vs 12,00 subs. Just sayin'.
