This whole LS management thing really needs to be addressed sooner rather than later. I've just come back to the game, enjoying it, been playing for a few days. Now my issue, 0 of my friends came back and 0 of my old LS members are still around. I've checked out shells on Besaid (even added one guy from here who just hasn't been online the same time as I have), and most shells are getting pretty picky about recruiting. I don't blame these shells one bit, every patch, new influx, and people leave. They then have to reform and the cycle begins a new.

Anyhow, to returning players or new players, this flat out sucks. The world is empty enough as it is (minus ul'dah), they really need to just add a remove member feature sooner rather than later. If I leave again, it'll be because of a poor linkshell system which is completely ridiculous.
