Multiple linkshells suggestion.

[AestaValis]

I was only pondering the point in displaying an active linkshell if you're able to freely communicate with multiple shells.

The whole LS system I believe is a superior extension to guilds, in that we can join multiple shells for different purposes rather than being stuck in a single guild.

The way people want it, is so they can freely chat to people no matter what shield is next to their name. This is the pride I was talking about. In a sense, it merely becomes something to show when you're raiding with a group etc.

I'm not saying people should only join a single LS, I'm just wondering why the LS system exists if in the end it becomes nothing more than a glorified chat channel.

The basic idea of linkshell was chat channel, it became a guild system only because there was no real system for guild.

Hopefully, yoshida announced that free companies will be the real guild system when 2.0 will be released. peoples will be able to join only one and linkshell will return back to their initial state : being chat channels . Guild and chat systems will be clearly separated, a good thing.


I think the fact that SE announced only hot keys and text command for switching linkshell ,and not text command for directly sending message on the canal we want , is because server limitations.

It's a real good thing they re improving it but for the system most people want to have, you'll have to wait for the 2.0 version and his new server structure.

theres a reason why we have /p /sh /s /l and we don't have hot keys for them. its the same reason we shouldnt need hot keys for /l1 /l2 /l3 etc

You have ones....ctrl p, ctrl l, etc...
