    WoW added this and I feel it was one of the causes of community decline, especially with cross realm grouping.

    It's great for when you've got friends on other servers but doesn't encourage you to make friends on your own.

    The game already doesn't encourage this with the nature of the Duty Finder and 8 man static content.

    I'd gladly welcome a cross server Friends list or at the very least an ability to re queue with party if i meet a cool group in like a Primal fight or Alexander.

    This is probably one of the better things they could adapt from modern MMOs like WoW or GW2

    For me, it was WotLK's anonymous duty finder that killed server community, which we already have in FFXIV. However, being able to run things with friends on other servers was great when it was later implemented.

    Grouping for harder content could be disabled cross-server, like WoW has done. Then, if it were implemented, people would still be making friends locally.

    Also your miqote is one of the prettiest ever ♥

    edit to include I don't necessarily think that you need to "go" to their server in any capacity if partied, it could be more restrictive. I would just like to chat with or maybe run a dungeon with my coworker without transferring to his server, leaving my game friends behind ^^

    What is this social decline people speak of? Has WoW's community declined into mass social anarchy? Is it now a world where it's killed or be killed? Do the living now feed off the dead? Please tell me! For last I checked it was just a game people still are supposedly playing and enjoying!?
