We are regularly removing people who have been inactive for at least 7 days to move people from our overflow company into PBC. We regularly have around 200 members logged on at prime time.
  • We do not recruit, and I regularly and consistently turn away potential applicants. PBC is the free company for a well-known, large gaming community, and the amount of interest from that community overwhelmed our initial organization efforts; we expected a couple hundred people at most.
  • We are on Excalibur because we have many members who played on Figaro/Aegis in 1.0 and wanted to continue with their original characters. We also have FCs on Midgardsormr and Cactuar for people who didn't want to be on legacy servers, but Excalibur was the most popular option by far.
  • We have many "raid linkshells" at various levels of progression which handle their own internal recruitment, scheduling and gear distribution; the FC is for pickup groups, leveling, crafting, asking questions and so forth. I don't demand raid content that can be done by my whole FC; I'd just like more member space because I've got a few hundred people who feel left out right now.
You all need to get your crap together. I've had tons of really rude players asking me to let them in my ls/fc thinking I lead that disorganized mess.
