Find the silence very odd

Some of the reasons theres so little chat is because there is no auto attack yet and the timer while crafting doesn't allow it or you'll botch your synth. No search feature also makes it hard to team up. Also not as many people are still playing since launch.

What the hell are you talking about? Its easy to type while crafting and there IS a search feature and IMO its a better search than 11. The only problem is that no one uses it.

lol this search feature sucks so bad and typing while crafting is sloppy. You can either try to type what you want to say before the timer is up and end up with only half of what you typed out posted or you can wait till your done with your synth and make whats on your mind seem like an afterthought to everyone else.

Ehm... you know that if you type something > press esc > press "standard synth" > press spacebar > press UP you get back what you wrote? Come on, don't whine if it's just you being dumb...

And you think that's a fluid system...? how about making is so synthing doesn't interfere with chat at all?

And how would you do it? the only chance to do it is by making synthesis performable only via mouse, but that's a stupid restriction, plus if people can't use normal attacks and think about the next action, or type, synth and type again I don't expect them to be enough multitasking to type with the keyboard and synth with the mouse at the same time.
You definitely can chat and synth/fight, if you're not able to do it that's another problem and it's not the game's fault.

Oh no wait... there is another way! They could bring back the old FFXI crafting system! ok, so your attempt to make this a "I love AA" thread has failed, let's try to make it a "bring back FFXI" one.

And how would you do it?

Make it so Synthing doesn't reset your chat log after every synth action.

OMG stop with this nonesense -.-'

I've reached rank50 with my lancer and I were always able to chat, no1 is gonna kill you if you stop spamming for a few seconds (also because if you spam normal attacks you're not helpful AT ALL)

I've reached rank50 carpenter and if I couldn't chat while grinding I would have already killed myself.

The only reasone for the silence is the fact that always more people is quitting the game, even those that enjoied the gameplay are quitting for the lack of contents and the fact that the servers went down for a few days gave them the deathblow.
When the servers where more populated it wasn't this quiet.
