Pause and Think before Shouting

[Istaro]

I think that once they implement a visible party flag and tweak the search feature, the shouts may diminish.

even if they "fix" the LFP and make the game more like XI, which I still don't understand WHY people want this game to lose it's uniqueness and be JUST like its lower grade counterpart, I myself will still use /sh to strum up convorsation, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Heck even on XI I would shout random things in Jeuno and Aht Urgahn just to get a laugh out. Like: /propose "Who pwns this server?" "Chuck Norris" "Sadow Lord" "OCTAGON" hahahaha...good times good times

Before you post, think about what you are saying. Final Fantasy XI has outperformed Final Fantasy XIV on every level possible. Right now, it is outperforming FFXIV in terms of revenue brought in, total playerbase, content, etc. To say that FFXIV is FFXI's "Lower Grade Counterpart", almost makes me believe that you are trolling.

On topic however. I like the idea of a specialized /sh channel.

one should not use a 10 year old games revenue and amount of content as a comparison to a 1.5 year old game....just sayin.

I'm not talking about over-all revenue. I'm talking about current, monthly-subscription based revenue.

I'm sure you know which game is in the lead.

200,000 subs vs 12,00 subs. Just sayin'.

12k? what are you smoking?

12k on at any given time is not 12k total subs

I don't think since release that 12,000 people have been online at any given time. Maybe 6, on a weekend. I'm sure we have server counts somewhere.

There may be alot more than 12,000 players, but I'm talking about "active subscriptions" (people paying to play)

you are still comparing an established MMO that started out in an unsaturated MMO market that didn't attempt to rebuild itself from ground up. I could say the exact same thing about WoW vs FFXI.

there are on average 12-15k on at any given time right now in game....people are reporting easily 1k-2k people online on there servers at random times during the day

10 servers...do the math(rag reporting about half of what others have)

you just obviously dont pay attention and like to spit out bad info
