    Linkshell Message upon logging in Do we have it? Can we have it?

    Forgive me for asking if this is already in the game.

    In FFXI we had /lsmes and we could leave messages about events or whatever. Why do we not have this? If this is already in the game I haven't seen any of my LS's use it so sorry.

    If this is not in the game it should be added. A linkshell message was a great way to communicate.

    Yes Free Companies can but I'm not asking for that. I'm Asking for Linkshells.

    Not everyone likes to use FCs to get stuff done. I have a linkshell that actually gets CoB done vs the FC I have (that is suppose to get it done) that doesn't have the people who can do it.

    The main function of a linkshell is to serve as a chat channel between friends, adventuring partners, or other like-minded adventurers. With that in mind, we have no plans to expand the functionality of linkshells by adding a message board/login message option.

    How about you make FC something more then a LS with a chest? (and i'm not talking about The Sims XIV that's coming out in 2 weeks)

    Not knowing who logs/in off in a LS/Friendlist annoys me to no end. >.<

    Good but ... the FC has a limit of 512 members and a LS has 128. The chat channel is the restrictive one ...

    And that's kind of lame since my social LS - IE the ones who job it is to be social and have fun - is hovering around 120 members and we're periodically having to purge people.
