Now that its Monday i guess the process of: Rep reading thread > Translation > Rep passing to Dev team > Dev team reading Rep email > Dev team responding > Translation > Dev team passing to Rep > Rep posting in thread: can begin.

Well I have made it to here i apologies for all the post but it had to be done.

Elkwood,Rhomagus And others i feel you...

When most people look at this linkshell issue as nothing it's still a rather big issue i got locked on multi threads for spamming the issue and got more hate then a positive feed back on a common goal to get SE to fix this issue.

" Such drama.

Yes, it's needed. But nobody's rage quitting because they have to reform a shell.

You're spamming. And saying that people who disagree with you are not welcome to post ... well, you can see how well that works. "

People may not be quitting but i know leaders who get fed up, Trying to make a fun active shell for there key members and cant cuz he or she is running down people who may come on after weeks or months of not being on. This isnt dramma this is people trying to get what they need on the most basic simple scale.


So for everyone who still feels my intent on this thank you for all you who deffer that's ok also just don't start spamming threads for answers on something you think is a major issue or something you feel a great deal of passion for or effects the great people you play with daily. because that's why i am here and doing what i am.
Thank you.

PS~

Seriously needs to get fixed, nothing more frustrating than having to waste my time and that of some who can hand out the pearls because we have to re-form again.

Since joining my current LS they have reformed 4 or 5 times.

Lets make this happen, even if the only thing they do is add the ability to remove offline members.

I agree we need to do something about this and now!

Page 2? Don't think so!

Even if it is a complicated task why put it off until AFTER they FINISH the combat overhaul? That means this won't even be put to the grindstone until AFTER summer. This is what gets under my skin, they overhaul all of the staple features of this game except the linkshell. One of the most used if not THE most used feature of this game to this point.

Its almost as if they want us to suffer because out of all the other staple features, this is the ONLY one that has 99.9% of the vocal playerbase behind the idea yet this one goes completely unoticed. /sadpanda

My current stance on this topic

Sorry for double post but this almost fell to page 3 aswell.

Just finished my 6th pearling since CE release. It's a pain in the butt. Please fix this, and soon.

The primary complaint amongst members/leaders in most linkshells is that the tools are severely limiting and needlessly so. Recruiting and ousting members from a linkshell is counter intuitive at best. It is the case with most shells that they are constantly having to break and recreate their shells in order to purge their linkshell lists of people who have decided to leave on their own accord.

It becomes increasingly frustrating when new dev-tags are released and linkshell management is not among them. Some players have been so desperate for the recognition of this issue that they've posted the issue under "[Dev 1024] Crowd Control". There was a post made by Rukirii in that particular thread but the answer did not mesh with the information gleamed in "Letter from the Producer VIII" where Naoki Yoshida clarified that there were multiple specialized teams working on different aspects of the game.

I will personally be modifying/editing this post to present the progress so far in regards to this issue.

If you so choose, please check out and reply to the following threads, and incorporate your feedback here or in there, preferably both. After reading many of the posts already, it is clear that the issues are unanimous amongst the playerbase.



A very thorough post from Poppa which is so important I feel the need to include it in the OP as it seems I'm not the only one who has done the legwork necessary to research this particular topic.




Day#1 May 23, 2011 - Noticed a thread made by Keith_Dragoon
Day#2 May 24, 2011 - Created this thread
Day#3 May 25, 2011 - Posted thoughts from AngryNixon on common sense and Tonka on competency (pg.3)
Day#4 May 26, 2011 - Responded to statements against change by Kilta_Firelotus and Elexia. (pg. 4)

Guess it takes longer then 8 months to get this addressed. Very sad too since there is such a huge response of players that would like this fixed fast.
