Can't link any item in chat...

[Percles]

I love this bugged game! Every time a new bug...

Now, I can't even link any item in to the chat! Nothing workd ctr/alt/what every you thing-right click. Nothing...

GGG, the master of a bug game!

Why bother using google when you can just post something stupid and 20 people will correct you :)

Now if steam would fix autocorrect so instead of just showing me mispelled things I coudl right click and fix it.

It's "community service".

You can say this, but you're just saying "I don't have this problem so it doesn't exist", which is extremely common in the PoE community, unfortunately.

This isn't helpful. If you don't understand the problem, or if it is a problem you haven't had, saying that the OP is an idiot because you haven't had it happen to you doesn't get anyone anywhere.

OP: Are you trying to link an item from the Guild Stash to chat? You can't do that, and I forget that ALL THE TIME myself. (Maybe you can if you're the guildmaster, but I'm not in my case.) It's a poor UI decision.

Over exaggerating an issue and blaming the game for everything when even the simplest troubleshooting would probably fix it is pretty common in the PoE community, too.
Pretty ironic that the one guy here makes problems for you but you are pretty fine with how OP handle / write things which are pretty similar.

guild master cant link either

He's frustrated, and people being unhelpful is probably a contributor to that. Be a little empathetic - consider having your tab open and you KNOW linking is one combination of:

left or right click, and one, two, or three of alt/ctrl/shift, and you know (because you've done it before) that you have to have your chat window open and active and you try all 14 combinations. Maybe you even get super crazy and think, hell, am I going nuts and it's my MIDDLE mouse button? There's 21 possibilities. Why won't it work, you think?

It's either an incredibly frustrating bug, and everyone tells you it doesn't exist and you're dumb as rocks, or it's incredibly poor UI (because you're doing it from a guild tab and the game designers have arbitrarily decided not to fix or address this properly) and everyone tells you it doesn't happen and you're dumb as rocks... Everyone's too busy being smug and entertaining themselves at your expense to actually take the issue seriously, much less actually read what you wrote. (You want a heady dose of the latter, read some official Microsoft Support threads sometime.)

So, yeah, maybe think more like a troubleshooter and less like a performer trying to entertain an audience. This isn't r/drama, 4chan, or facebook. (Edit: wasn't expecting that second example to be censored, huh.)

It's Control-Alt-Left Click.

Before you scream and yell at this game being buggy, try to figure out your own problems first.
And the chat window has to be open

Did anyone really read my post and understand it?
Like I sayed! With open chat window!

Shift-Right-Click = not working!
Ctrl-Right-Click = not working!
Alt-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Ctrl-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Alt-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Ctrl-Alt-Right-Click = not working!

All the above with Left-Click = not working!

I'm not stupid and play this game since beta 2013!
Some more stupid comments?

Fun how in that list you AGAIN forget the ONE correct combination people are telling you about.

It's Ctrl+Alt+LeftClick. No Shift involved..

[edit]
Oh well, kinda necro, the OP possibly found out where he was wrong and stopped posting about it out of embarrassment.

[DarkFaceGlow]

********
Shift-Right-Click = not working!
Ctrl-Right-Click = not working!
Alt-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Ctrl-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Alt-Right-Click = not working!
Shift-Ctrl-Alt-Right-Click = not working
********

Ok..... none of the above work. If you’ve been playing since 2013, why would you even attempt those combos?

[mH.delusion]

Because it's probably something he doesn't do a lot and he just went through the obvious combos (including probably ctrl-alt left click). Again, stop performing for the crowd.
