Hey, YOU, Non-search user still shouting first. STOP IT

[Jynx]

Sometimes a well placed shout can work wonders, not everyone is always seeking if they are considering leveling.

Hell in XI I joined tons of parties when I seen a shout and was like...sure why the hell not. Let people shout, let people seek, both ways parties can be formed.

"Turn your shout filter on if it bothers you so badly. "

^ This is exactly the type of thinking I'm talking about. You clearly don't understand the reason behind the post. And will probably continue to use shout cause of it.

Shouting does not annoy me. Using shout over search annoys me because it promotes old ways that were complained about by almost everyone having to stand in uldah for a party. Now we have a way out of it and everyone continues to shout first and ignore search all together. What happened to all the people that wanted search before ?

How do I know they're ignoring search? Because of forum posts and the way every party leader except a JP one I have been in since the update all shout with 3-4 people listed in search asking to do that who will never know about the shout because they're off doing their thing far far away expecting the search feature to work. Its better, we dont have to sit around. So open it up and please start getting a feel for it???????? We don't have to sit in one spot for 5 hours anymore so if you stop promoting this to be used "first" at the very least.......... Party leader your in shouting? See 3 people in search asking to do what the party is for? Tell the leader hes being retarded and send a tell....

There were only a few which complained, shouting will ways be superior. It is like going to a store see something you didnt know you needed and buy it. Id rather go into a party when it is a party than wait all day, and if i dont get in a party in less. Than 5 min, i use the search feature. Though, ive never needed to yet

Love of god, please.....Use search before shouting always for more party members. Search 1st, shout second. This new system was made so players do NOT have to sit in uldah or gather in front of the stupid entrance of a primal fight so please stop doing it this way and use the search feature how its supposed to as it alleviates the problems!

If you think its not compatible enough with what you want maybe your not using it right.

Are you setting online status to search people "Seeking party" ?? If you click your name and your the one searching "for" a party are you putting in what you want to do not some silly blank field? Are you making sure to set the online status for yourself as "Seeking party" ?? Its there, look for it....... Setting the class with the correct level? I saw a level 50 con, comment was exp on 26 arc and the retard didn't set his prefer class to arc so he will never get an invite of course that way.

but how do you know they didn't use the search function before they started shouting?

One shout can persuade a person who was going to go participate in the snowball fight to forgo it, and instead level his PGL.

You may have an ok point but your post just makes you sound like an intolerant self-serving snob :/ And you wonder why people push against you.

I'll use the search when and how I want to, and I'll shout if I deem it necessary or beneficial. You have your opinion and you're entitled to it, though to be blunt I don't care about it one bit if you're going to get it out there in the form of a temper tantrum.

[Yelta_Sumasu]

I don't mind the occasional shout but for the love of god... not every 25 seconds...

It will take time for people to adjust using the party search function, and I really, really hope people start using it.

You can lead a horse to water, but ya can't make the damn thing drink

Watch me !!

I do agree with the OP though that more people should learn to use the features we are given, seems a bit pig headed not to.

[Renshi]

I shout so people knows I'm Actively searching for members. I just don't like to set my state to Seeking Party so people bring me on. Therefore I use the Shouting. Doesn't bother anyone, more like Can't bother anyone. It's not like we're shouting penises on the chatlog.

[Viridiana]

No, this isn't wow. If its better structure they need to wake up. Do not promote old ways just because they're the "old ways". Just like people are still refusing to use Arc in ifrit. Its sheeple and rediculous.

If this were WoW, they wouldn't be shouting for groups. That's what trade chat was for. Please get your facts straight before disparaging a game.
