LS Message /LSmes set from FF11 that shows when logging in. (translated w/answer)

It'd be nice if they improved on the /lsmes command and gave linkshells an ls board or something that you access from the ls menu. In my head it would just be a noticeboard type thing that stores like 10 or so notices at a time. I know this isn't the priority at the moment but if something is absent we could maybe at least use it as an excuse to ask for something better - if people think this would be better of course.

I'm sure all the lodestone stuff is in database like MySQL and stuff, all they need to do is make something like you say with LS board which brings all the contents from the linkshell into the game through XML or w/e Linkshell Forum > RSS/XML output > Game translates it back into it's own + add posting back feature... I don't see why it's so damn hard... Would do the same damn thing for FFXI topics so everyone who don't check Lodestone every time can see it... they should add this topics stuff into the damn login program... that part is dumb as hell also...

This might be close to what I was thinking.

I can give some credence to the idea that having 8 LS messages scroll your chat when you sign in would be too much. At the same time, with the players asking for /ls1, /ls2 functionality, "just have the active shell's message pop up" is a shortsighted solution.

However, I keep envisioning the LS menu showing an LS message right below each shell's name, or it could be tied into a notice board like Wevlum is suggesting. There seems no obvious reason that can't be done. It would allow everyone to see the /lsmes is a manageable format, and won't require using a browser (for our full-screen and PS3 players--if/when they arrive).
