Greetings Square Enix,

I would like to thank you about your efforts creating a better experience for us. Especially in these days were you try to sustain all the servers and give us the best outcome. I really respect your efforts
I would like to suggest one very serious (in my opinion) matter. We need an emote hiding option which removes the text from the chat. I am trying to communicate with my friends via chat bar and every now and then I see many players spamming emotes.Real and constant spamming. I understand and respect that is their way to play this game BUT it is not right for me each time to move to a different area which is not so crowhed so I can communicate with them. FFXIV has so many options to configure almost everything except that and it is very very strange that is not possible yet. No offence to anyone but chat bar is a very important tool to play the game and make the experience better.
PLEASE add an option where we can hide from the chat box all the emotes at will.
Thank you for reading my post, I am looking forward for your reply.

Wishes for a better New Year.
