Gotcha... I would go with the shouting in Ul'day then. Although I do advise not to spam the shouts as people do get annoyed with shout spams sometimes. Maybe just occasionally send a shout out to see if you get a bite. I myself caught a few shouts from returning players and a couple new ones the other day and invited them to my linkshell and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person to do so. Good Luck I hope you find a good linkshell!
