where can i find an FC that is completly following the terms of services of the game.

10/10 bait. Real answer, find a fully console peasant fc

It's very easy to be in an FC and not engage with the FC much and just play your own way. This is what I have always done in an FC. I chat with them occasionally, but otherwise, I ignore that I'm in an FC and just queue for things and play my own way. They never have a problem with this, whatever their own playstyle happens to be.

Macros are a feature in the game and the norm for crafting. You don't need to out-compete them, either. You just need to satisfy your own personal goals and that's it. Never understand this pointless need to compete with others.

Same for battles. You only need to feel satisfied with how you are personally pressing buttons. You don't particularly need to satisfy anyone else if you don't want to. If they don't like that, you can simply avoid playing with that person.

OP, I feel you. I used to run a community that gently encouraged this. Unfortunately they all vanished from online with DT, and I didn't have the time to keep it recruiting at the 64 cwls limit.
You also won't find it with any community featuring high end. It will be logs logs logs.
Id love to say start your own community, but recruiting is full time as people stop logging on, and its harder to rely get to know people.
This game 'has' just changed so much in four years.

I dont run any mods - never have. Its half that i dont see the point, half that i dont trust the people who develop them. With that established, i wouldnt join an FC who were that militant about it and if i were running an FC i would kick anyone like OP. Caring that much about how someone else plays the game is a HUGE red flag. Its not good for your mental health, its not good for the health of the game, and its inevitably going to cause some amount of drama. Im an adult. I dont need or want more drama.

Same, and as it turned out some years ago - wasn't such a bad decision. Things that run locally without needing internet would be more acceptable I guess for gaming at least...

OP needs to find console friends, they exist. Or stick to trusts and npc squadron.

I don't know if anyone offer this, but find an FC that is full of console players may be your best bet.

There is a big point in usage of mods, like a lot and first one that comes to my mind is botting. Mentors will never leave them because of this option.

Also this seems like another bait post or OP is a person that loves to find drama whenever possible.

- "I want people to respect rules" -> starts a drama about everything

Nobody cares what people are doing, play game your way. Just because some people are having fun doesn't mean that you should shut them down. "If I can't have fun then nobody can!".

I said that I dont see the point. Why would i want to set up a bot? I play the game to play the game. I dont want to automate a bunch of stuff and go afk. That isnt playing. I dont even macro craft. If my mind and skills arent up to the task, i need to get better. The people who are still crying over the loss of Mare im sure saw a point in their graphical changes. I do not want to change my character in ways the engine doesnt support, nor am i interested in seeing the "fruits" of other peoples efforts on that front. So i dont. But my disinterest doesnt rise to the level of caring what other people do. And dont downplay the not trusting bot developers aspect. That alone is reason enough not to install stuff on my PC.

if its true, i think squeenix failed in protecting there own terms and should just close the whole data centers

but thats just an opinion

Hard pass. No company should be allowed to insert an app that can access the ROOT of your PC.

How about you create a company with the rules that you want? You have complete control over it.
