    This is why "busy" status exists, use it if you don't like the RMT tells. Suggesting to remove player search completely, or nerf it to the ground in an MMORPG doesn't make sense however.

    Actually, you bring up another point. This is an MMO, true. Due to the online nature of MMO's and the nature of not knowing who is on the other end of the keyboard, I am surprised FFXIV doesn't have any privacy features at all for in-game characters. Many other pay-2-play MMO's offer privacy settings for players. This game offers none. BTW, the "busy" status doesn't remove your name from search results and makes it so I can't have /tell conversations with people in my FC. If it did, I would be fine setting myself to /busy while I play.

    There's no reason NOT to have privacy settings for an online application, particularly for users that pay to use such application.
