Laziness or Problem? Only shouting rather than using /lfp and player search.

I have doubts this would be really effective with Coil's convoluted lock out system.

From what I gathered, it's the leader who is checked for which turn to load, so I don't see why it would matter. You probably just can't be brought into coil if you don't have access to it at all.

The amount of "I didn't know it even existed"-posts is rather disturbing... I admit it's a bit hidden and from what I saw, the game never mentions it, but don't people read the manual? Or at least poke around all the menus?

I haven't been to coil obviously. But yes, the leader determines what turn to load. So if the leader is on turn 3 and everyone else in the party is on turn 1, then the party can proceed. However, if that party starts turn 3, everyone that hasn't made it to turn 3 for the week can't go back and do turns 1 and 2 even though they didn't complete them themselves. The reverse of this cannot work. If the leader is on turn 1 and everyone else in the party is on turn 3, the party can't even do turn 1. This system makes sense so that you allow players no more than one coil completion per week. However, that only works well with a static group where you can down each turn together. With player search, I'm sure you can get some coil play in very easily. But getting into the exact coil turn you are on will be more difficult because of the way coil's lockout system.

The problem with it is that you have to manually check people's status. It doesnt show a description in the search and you cant just search the keywords. For example, if I am looking for people for hydra and you put "/lfp looking for hydra party", I cant just search for "hydra" and find all the people that want to join up. It's more tedious honestly
