    Allowing Tells in Duties.

    It's frustrating when I am just about to enter a dungeon and I see a question in my tell, but I can't respond to it cause I enter the dungeon at a bad time. Now that person has to wait 20+ minutes for my response.

    It's the same thing with PVP, when I sued to do it. If I see my ls ask a question, I can't answer it.

    While it was done for the sake of not receiving harassment tells, that is fine. But let the people have the option to allow tells/ls chat during duties. Some things are best solved internally than having the whole party see it anway, or ls chat.

    Maybe I want to tell somehow how they can improve something instead of saying it in party so they don't feel embarrassed about it.

    I'm pretty sure it has to do with the fact that you're not in your server when you're in duties/pvp.

    I honestly don't know, considering you can talk in FC/Linkshells, but it may have those meanings (Yours and OP's)

    Yeah I was thinking too, that it might be to prevent people from ganging up on each other with vote kick, but if you think about it, if those people are in ls or FC or on ts together they're just going to do it there anyway, and if you're gonna go through the trouble of plotting with a bunch of randoms to vote kick someone then that player prob needs to be vote kicked anyway.

    On the other hand, a lot of players would probably be more receptive to helpful advice if they weren't being "called out" in front of the rest of the party. That and I don't know how many times I've wanted to send a tell to someone to say "bbl dungeon popped" or something at least, so they wouldn't think I'd just randomly quit the conversation.

    Think of the RMT spam man, just think about it. You're doing Final Coil (or still on T9 like me), sh*t goes down, you're scrambling to handle the mechanics, and bam, the ding ding ding ding of a flood of RMT spam not only distracts you, but fills up your chat log, pushing out the frantic cries "OMG MOVE YOU NOOB" because you're in a PUG to learn the fight and not with your raid group on Mumble, and bam, RMT wipes the raid. Not that you wouldn't have wiped a second later anyway, but still. Not the point.

    No thanks.

    To be fair, my post doesn't even apply to me because I have a specific "raid" chat tab which only allows /a, /sh, /p, /say, /yell, and loot rolls. It keeps me from stabbing certain FC-mates through their computer screen when they post greetings to people who log on that take up my entire chat box with a single repeated letter. ("OMG, IT'S THATGUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUY!")
