Can we go back to banning people for ERP crap?

Honestly, I feel like they should just rework the largely ignored fellowship finder into an announcement board for player events and venues as well. Furthermore, create a chat channel specifically for player announcements that people can opt into or out of like any other chat channel we presently have. While I can't stand all the various stupid club spam and "DJ" this or that ads, I don't think shutting people down altogether is the right course of action either. Remove it from the general shout channel and party finder, but give these players and people legitimate places to post their advertisements without disrupting anyone or anything else.

honestly this it amazes me how minimal fellowships are,
like a huge fix would be to merge fellowships and Link shells with a simple public/private setting,
they didn't even try to hit the mark with fellowships they just turn around and shot at random.

I'd just turn shout chat off if it's nothing but spam, my guy.

I’ve had to do that cause there is so many shouts that bloats my chat about “RP events and see our DJ” blabla

Shouters are just trying to earn an Eorzea living. If you go after somebody it has to be the "boss man" for hiring and sending them out in the streets in the first place.

Well, I don’t know or care how these things are structured. All I know they are pretty anoying when In cities and chat is spammed by this.

Yeah, any type of chat spam needs to be reined in or there is just going to be a situation like WoW's [Trade] channel (the default global chat in cities) being nothing but carry spam, effectively killing most general chatting in cities.

Yeah, that would be nice, it's a shame we don't have a chat filter system like that.

What's with people and Night Club? Why there's no stuff like a Lounge, or a Bar, that plays Jazz music or Classical music, why it's always a Night Club and a DJ?

Introverts won't fit on those place you know...

I still find it amusing how the pinnacle of RP and partially ERP in this game is a bunch of people afk emoting in a house with a twitch stream open in the background playing bad trance music from the 90s. I don't get it and it makes me want to cringe out of my own skin, but each to their own I guess. That being said, just do what I do and blacklist all of the shouters in chat.

I will say I have seen a sharp increase in the amounts of advertisements for "nightclubs" in the past 6 months or so. Not too sure what's driving it.

A pandemic that is still going, mainly. It was great for when people were quarantining to be able to see other people, in a sense, but now it's more annoying than anything. I think 75% of my blacklist now is people with 2+ ads in PF for the same "clubs". I don't usually do a /blist for shout chat people, just the PF spam.

And hey, there's nothing wrong with 90s trance music, I take offence to that! lol
