An example of why the ARR Hunts need an adjustment

[Vnolan]

That won't change anything though the problem is this group on the Op's server are not only trying to stealth kill hunts but also purposely manipulating 3rd party sites so pretty much everyone is left in the dark but them.

Manipulating hunt windows on third-party sites is playing dirty, but OP's group can keep their own times. If the same group is able to keep the times to themselves after the windows reset, the group greatly outnumbers the other groups, or the other groups aren't hunting.

On group size:

On my server there is a small group of players who solo or kill with a very small group all the S/A ranks in ARR zones.

it was a fun community activity, now utterly in shambles all due to the actions of a few people working within a system that is not made for being 20 levels higher than the content

Now that you mention this. Yes. There are literally a few people who became so salty because they missed a couple hunts; a husband and wife according to the majority on behemoth that they; a heals and dps/tank now purposly flat out pull anythibg insight the second they see it, they spawn any and all s ranks from A realm reborn to Heavensward to Stormblood

An in game way to tell even if it didn't give an exact time would be a great QoL improvement because we are only going to get stronger and they have made it clear they don't want to adjust the level/hp of the old S Ranks.

That wouldn't matter. Topics like this would still be made asking for ARR and HW to get beefed up or synced or made invulnerable for a time. Notice the topic is about ARR hunts, and not SB hunts, when SB hunts have much longer periods of inactivity.

Like Darrc said, hunts are toxic in their current form. The only thing I've seen come remotely close in toxicity was the EM during diadem 2.0 (didn't try Feast until after chat was removed). Instead of topics like this that aim low and request a minor fix so they can continue to grin and bear it, the players should be asking the devs to be consistent: If we can't have an official parser because they 'don't want to split the community', and if Feast chat was removed because of toxicity, then they should also adjust hunts so they aren't toxic (remove spawn times, tie rewards to bills and make hunts docile)
