No, it shouldn't be added to the game. All it did was make people buttholes in XI, and we don't need any more of that nonsense in XIV.

I dunno why people are so against this

Mentioned FFXI on the FFXIV Forums - Check.
People butthurt over a nonissue - Check.

Yep, seems the 2 main reasons present. It's a good feature much like it's tied with "Soandso browses your bazaar/buys" which no one seems to complain about in XI nor did anyone complain about it in XIV (buying). The only issue as said was the wording on JP client.

I really hate to break it to you, but those of us who played FFXIV knew there was a check feature in XIV and people were already anal about your meld situation, much worse than in XI.
