TELLS in DUNGEONS

[Majidah]

Okay okay, I read Yoshi said that tells to people in instances is possible and is actually already implemented, but that they "masked" this function out by disabling them to avoid people harrasing each other in dungeons.

Thats good and all.

But why. WHY. Can't we send tells to people who are IN the dungeons, when we are OUTSIDE? At the very least people in our friend list.

I can't ask my friends to events or ask them to join in runs they actually need whenever they are inside an instance. And that's most of the time.

So basically if you aren't in the same FC or LS as them, it's incredibly hard to find enough friends free at the same time.

THIS MAKES NO SENSE. PLEASE, for the love of GOD, fix this. NOW. Not in a few months when you realize how bad this design is, NOW.

I'm confused, why is there a scenario that you have people on your friends list but can't be in the same LS/FC as them?

[AvenDar]

Because sometimes you want to send your friend a private message without the entire fc knowing what it is.

Maybe inviting someone to something while they are in dungeon will lead to them leaving and screwing the party over?

Have you played with no strangers that you liked? Ever? Most of these people are already in a fc, and shoving them all into a ls would be impossible as the number of shells a person can have is limited to 8.

Letting people know not to go another round doesn't mean asking them to ditch. And if someone is going to ditch, he will do it regardless. There is already a rep system in place.

You can get around this by creating an LS for people you want to send tells to in dungeons... Unlike FCs you can hold multiple LS pearls. And you can have an LS for a small group

So if you like someone so much that you get annoyed everytime you get that annoying message when they enter instance in mid sentence, then just give them their own personal LS pearl.

That sounds like an awful lot of work to just send someone a tell. I don't get this no tell in dungeon rule. Seems really silly and unnecessary. If there are any tells that they should work on blocking it's tells from gil spammers. I love how legit tells from players are blocked but gil sellers have free reign to terrorize the server with never-ending spam tells.

Your definition of "work" is different from mine.

Saw the thread title, came in to post this - PS3 limitations.

The no tells thing needs to go. It's so silly.

This is an MMO, it's my business if i want to be social or not.
