Player search not able to find offline players

[Teon]

How exactly are we supposed to find materia melders, crafters, LS /FC leaders asking to join them, grow as a community, when everytime we try to find a player we have to pray he's online? (If offline, the player results as non-existent)
Also the search function must be able to find every crafter of the server just choosing the discipline, listing all of them.
Same for a particular kind of player (find healers, tanks, etc)

This is just ridiculous. Search ingame is just useless junk, where we have to waste hours contacting every member of an LS/FC until finally one of them is online, and hope to find a way to contact the target

Please fix the ingame search function to allow us to find offline players (and send them a message/request/friendship to allow us to be able to stay in touch as soon as possible), and the entire list of crafters/etc available on the server choosing the icon of the discipline/class.

Thanks.
