TELLS in DUNGEONS

Yes and besides that's what a voice chat server is for. Technology is amazing, you and your FC friends might want to test out a chat server.

Wow what a great idea! Thank you very much for your advice. Knowing that I can just use voice chat, I have no need to ever want SE to fix their terrible chat system.

Hear that guys?! The terrible chat system can stay terrible, because modern technology means we can all just use voice chat!

Occasionally I am in a DF party (or even a ls party) and someone is playing a job they are not so used to. I would like to send them a /tell advising to do something different (like for example remind WHM to turn cleric stance off when heals are needed or ask SCH to put the pixie next to the tank when himself have to stay away etc.) and when I say this in the party chat, people often take it that I am slacking off their skills, when in fact I am just trying to help...
The /tells definately need to be brought to the Duties, I will not have 20 linkshells just so I can talk with my friends privately.

Have to agree this is my biggest problem i have with this game atm. The no tells, cant look at FC/LS/Friends list has to go. This is just silly to limit us on who and when we can chat with people in a an mmo. Its almost as silly as taking out the journal tracker option.

As someone who already is in an FC + 8 linkshells I have to say that I agree.. I have about 30-40 players in my friends list that are not in any of my LS'. I definitely want this

Have anyone stop and think the reason why they don't allow /tell in Dungeon? I's to prevent harassment of another player. Like if a DPS, Tank, Healer is doing a bad job or some Douche Bag don't like how the other player for whatever reason, or he is getting all the loot. He would /tell and harass that person and no one will know. I like it like this. If you have something bad to say, tell it in party and everyone can see the message. It encourage people if you don't have something nice to say, then don't say it at all. It doesn't completely stop it, but it make it a little better. I have a Linkshell for Friends anyway, so I'm not bother by it and it get rid of the gold spammer /tell too.

They're still going to get harassed if the harasser wants it bad enough. Grow a pair. This is an MMO and taking out the social aspect of it is downright stupid. Besides, if someone does harass you via tell, you have the option to blacklist.

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 realized this by level 30 and saw how HORRIBLE of a system it was by then too. Constantly wanted to ask friends I met if they wanted to run this dungeon with me but they were in one or a solo story mission so I couldn't. Eventually I just started to invite everyone I made friends with to my LS, but that's still a stupid solution to a even stupider problem.

Fix how anti-social this game is, and fix it NOW. A MMO, the genre born and well known for it's social interaction shouldn't go out of it's way to make things as anti-social as possible.

And it doesn't work. People still get harassed, just openly now. Again, I've been in parties where people have been singled out by the majority of the party.

I have said this when Yoshida said it, and I will say it again. This is what a Blacklist is for. Use it. Love it. Enjoy it.

If they are on your friend list, have you ever thought of using the moogle mail service? Thy might notice it or they might not, but it's an option you have though still not really a solution.

This is in no way relevant to the discussion, as you can't use Moogle Mail in a dungeon.
