    My only issue is, what makes it impossible to take the online/location restrictions off of the Exile command? Honestly, just THAT would alleviate most of the issues. The Exile command exists in the LS menu, all they have to do is take the restrictions off of it. I'm not sure why that specifically would be impossible until 2.0 but then again I'm not one of the devs so it's hard to say.

    I understand that the whole big new LS system will be in place for 2.0, I just hope we get that one feature before then. It's one of the biggest issues that's been around since launch.

    I don't think it's that easy. The way this game is set up is that every region is divided between several servers, the reason you can't add or remove somebody at a distance is because their character is actually on a different server. It seems like the limitation is in place because the servers do not communicate to each other well enough. This is essentially the reason they are being replaced in 2.0. So no, from what I've read it's not as easy as just removing the restrictions, they also must completely overhaul the server structure first.

    Its not really a good excuse when you can kick + invite into party from any region. (Which used to be restricted in beta).

    There must be more, or the linkshell system must just be seriously locked down and completely broken.

    How it got this bad i have no idea, it wasnt 1-2 developers fault, there are plenty of people who worked on it, and all of them broke something so simple, so bad.
