Free Company Capacity - Insufficient Resources to Complete this Action

[ExponentialDecay]

A waiting list, references, and a resume. For a game. Excellent.
I'd appreciate it if you included hourly wages, what days we can
expect to have off, how paid time off works, and benefits.

These are job requirements, not MMO requirements.

It's actually something called "a joke."

Somehow I feel this screenshot was taken on a weekend on the day they added new people lol When in reality, we all know they only have less than 40 on at a time now, especially considering the free trial is up and quite a few people stopped getting on.

Nah I see the PBC tag all the time all over the place, they do have a ton of people online most of the time. That being said it kinda sucks, I've interacted with enough members of PBC that now I just avoid anyone with that tag. I'm sure there are plenty of decent players that are members in PBC but the bad ones I've encountered (and I'm not talking about skill level) were enough that I just decided to avoid them all together.


Oh and to be fair, the post about the waiting list, references and resume was pretty funny.

None of the things you're saying are true at all. We have no alts. We have less than a dozen people who haven't been on in more than two weeks. I know you think big FCs are stupid, but you don't have to make up things about the one I run.

Can you provide proof that none of them are alts or that 60% of your FC is unactive? I haven't seen any yet, just you and your members attacking people who disagree with you

[Molly_Millions]

just you and your members attacking people who disagree with you

Par for the course with this group from my experience.

Well then. Replace my current avatar with:

They are notoriously known for not being the most " mature " or friendliest people in gaming. They however are dedicated gamers and once you get past most of their members " protective shell" we'll call it lol , they are not to bad and are decent people.Coming from a community called Something Awful, you won't expect to run into a bunch of guys picking flowers and holding hands lol.

That's how I see it, 2nd chars or people who joined and haven't been on in weeks, but they don't want to remove them to show how "big" they are

Your ridiculous assumptions don't make anything true.

Why is it so hard to believe that a popular site could actually have 800 people on it all playing the same game?

[BotenAnna]

Once again, this is during Wednesday night peak; I don't understand these claims that we only ever have 20 people on. Please don't make things up.



On weekends and tome reset days it gets closer to 150-200. Especially now the launch rush is calming down, I don't see how 20% of the company being logged in is indicative of ill health. Once again, we regularly remove people who haven't logged in for a week or two. We have a big FC because we like and enjoy it, and like having active players together, and go through extraordinary effort to organize our FC especially in the wake of being divided by an arbitrarily low size limit.

512 is fine imo, FC's should not get bigger than that, I'd consider it a monopoly on players if it did. And you can bet that when people hit 50 there not going to stick around very long if they get skipped over for Titan HM, and BCB/crystal tower etc.

Your FC is bound to devide eventually, it's inevitable.

How can you even manage 512+ people... Large FC's are the worst, I like FC's that are nice and small.

Problem is most players don't realize you can be in 10 linkshells. So I join a small FC that get's crap done, then I formed my own linkshell with 50 plus people in it I use for farming CM/AK etc etc

Why does everyone have to like to do things the same way you do? We enjoy being in a large company and work together diligently to make sure everyone enjoys their time. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, people who couldn't roll on Excalibur to be with us are expressing that they are having difficulty progressing because it takes a long time or is impossible to find people to do things with that they know and trust. As such, a big ol' [Citation Needed] on that it's "inevitable" that we "devide"; we have a system in place to advertise raiding and other specific-purpose linkshells to our members to split off for specific activities that work better in smaller, more dedicated groups while still enjoying the benefits of a large group on all levels of progression and experience to socialize and form pick-up groups with.

If you don't want to play the exact same way we do, that's fine, but it's incredibly rude of you to be upset that someone else might enjoy the game a different way than you do.

Burden of proof lies with the prosecution, of which you have claimed the crown of for yourself.

[ReplicaX]

I mean if I missed something elsewhere in the thread feel free to point it out.

You folks mentioned you had 100 active members on others servers waiting. There are many players in the same boat waiting to get on Excalibur as well. Why I made the suggestion to take advantage of the free transfers to a lower pop. Legacy server.

Additionally, please transfer 100,000 gil to The Chairman to pay for your unlawful use of our trademark.

I will need a certified letter from the Grand Company and all applicable city-state courts, showing proof you registered it as a trademark besides it being a registered name.

Since this is a global forum, I suggest since it is not a registered trademark you file in all applicable countries and pay the required fees to do so.
