That's strange, you have Foxbat there complaining about RPers using shouts when it is perfectly fine for non-RPers to use the same game feature. So what makes it different when RPers do it? Why should RPers consider /not/ using /say or /shout, or at least think twice about doing so, when a non-RPer never even /thinks/ of that as an issue when pertaining to himself or other players. We all pay a fee to play this game, the same price. If I am bugged by Out of Character shouts because it ruins MY immersion as an RPer and a FFXIV customer just like the rest of you, and I tolerate it without telling you to shut up, I believe it's only fair to have the same courtesy in return.
