    That's one that I forgot to put in. This is a relic from XI.

    "Have you seen it?" For B rank mobs. <Do you have it?> really doesn't do. :/

    and is there something in the auto translate dictionary that equals ドンマイ (Don't mind)?
    There's no good auto translate that I know of for that. As for donmai, it only came to me when a JP player typed don't mind in English. They use it quite often... There's no auto for it.
    EDIT: How about B {The Hunt} {Where?}

There's other instances but yeah, any ideas of a good general guide for using autotranslate or maybe even some communication macros?
    There's an auto for "this is my first time here", I will look for it when I get in the game. There's none for explain the fight to me, and it makes sense because the reply you get won't be in auto translate, so you might as well make a macro in plain text.
    All you really need is {let's do it} and {good game} for running anything.

    Apologies for not being clear, I mean there SHOULD be things like this in the auto translate dictionary. xD
    We really should have something like "It's ok" or "No problem" to cover donmai.
    Could use "You can go ahead and start" too. >< Do we have an EN phrase for "I'm going" (行きます)?

    I tried using JP input for a while to put into practice the teensy bit of JP I know, but the punctuation being moved on the keyboard really messed me up so I changed back to EN input only. :/

    Yes, you need (imo) a wireless keyboard for your console. There are those who use the screen keyboard, but it's so frustratingly slow they can't keep up with chat. Just go get a cheap 10 buck keyboard from an office store, you don't need anything fancy.
