Think most people just use the yell filter addon, its in the block those stars topic if you are interested. It lets you add custom filters to block the ruthless yell bots.

I meant for the FFXIAH latest shouts thing on the main page.

Apparently it's unfixable. Been brought up a few times.

Or at least, the way shouts come through is something square changed and no one can make the needed adjustments.

Sometimes it works out to be better than normal shout capture. Also, how's the bum feeling today?

I'm sure theres a way to code it so someone cant have two shouts in a row. Does that mean some potential legit shouts will get missed if someones shouting back to back? Yes...but its better than 10 other shouts getting bumped out of the latest shouts.

You would think, but it's been just short of a year now.

It's kind of like FFXI fixing the network cap, they can fix it but they just don't think it's worth the time required I guess.

None of the screenshots get approved either, just one of those things where we are using a site where the original owners/caretakers have lost the fire. Sadly as the game ages and loses more in population, these will become common. They have a lot of weight on their shoulders, people should appreciate what they do for the community. I honestly think they should get paid for it via donations or something, I remember BG used to run those for years like once a year. Would rather donate during a donation drive to keep the site running and have mods/dev that actually care about it more often due to motivation like money.

Let's get Ninja to come donate too

What amazes me is that this FFXI site is still up and accurate. All I have to do is google "Pyogenes FFXI timer" and the first result is always there to let me know the moon phases.

https://www.pyogenes.com/ffxi/timer/v2.html

"Kisana" has probably had over 15 birthdays since I've been using that site. Heck, is Sylph even an active server anymore?

Edit: After checking, Sylph is still an active server. I wouldn't have bet money on it if it had been a game show question. No offense intended to any Sylph players.

its not unfixable, possible the person who made it left.

problem with projects like this are the people who end up in charge of them don't give 2 *** about the game so it's hard to keep a "passion project" like this going. no offense rooks, we've all definitely been there. talking to usagi/others that've had some of the reins at GW though this is clearly the case. it's likely a 2 second fix

There was a chat packet change. The Windower team pushed out a fix, but some people haven't updated yet and are running the GW client. Shouts are crowdsourced, so until those people update, we're going to see this.

It doesn't end there unfortunately, item updates only just got updated and the previous was back in February. So no one could create item sets with Nyame. Before that it was some four months and other recent items. Can't share ideas easily and encourage use of the site when you can't reference gear.

Only a few servers atm have shout data because only a few of us are testing a new build to make sure it's stable hence why I didn't announce it yet.

Also the one to thank is Scragg, he's the one working on it since their server cert expired and he needed to do that update anyway he started working on the rest of it.


Edit: Please don't DM me on here or on discord for access to test the new exe. I will not give it to you, hopefully later tonight, tomorrow night since I first posted this, it will go live even though not everything works, our plan is a rolling release since the 2 major things seemed fixed bazaar data and shouts.

Can't wait to be updated on what price Vvaaxxoonmlddd is selling Clears/Exp for... over and over and over. (Asura problems; I know).

or what some random player shouts last before servers are shut down each time... over and over and over.

(but for reals, thanks for your efforts. Better reading during down time than reading a shampoo bottle while I poop like it was before smart phones existed).

Saw Scragg last week on Cerberus with his nostalgic 75 era Apoc DRK. He's on the case guys, and I thanked him for all the hard work over the years. We wouldn't have what we do without him, Rooks and everyone else who contributes to the site and plugins.

Yeah I think so, I didn't examine him though.

Are bazaars going to be fixed or is that a lot of extra work? Not saying they have to be or ungrateful of the shout box being fixed. Just asking if it's being worked on or maybe in the future.
