Free Company Rank settings, Not strict at all

[Delta-Sniper]

Our free company has 3 roles that can adjust rank settings and the hierarchy is as follows:
President, CEO, Council members.

The problem is that the council members can give them selves abilities that they don't have. For example they don't have permissions to dismiss members but they can adjust this attribute, which will give them the ability to dismiss members. Or more of a concern is they can remove the CEO's ability to do anything.

I don't think you should be able to give settings that your current rank doesn't have. I also do not think that you should be able to adjust the settings of a rank that is higher then you in the hierarchy.

The concern with all guilds is you give some one too much power. Then you make them upset, but you don't realize it. Then the next day every one has been kicked from your guild and they stole all the money in the bank.

this has already happened and was reported and SE told them it was working as intended
i dont think its right either, being able to promote someone above your current rank is retarded

Your FC "master" (president in your case) is the one responsible for setting up the "authorizations" (permissions) for each rank. The master of your FC has the ability to set "hierarchy settings" for 3 categories: basic settings, chest access, and housing.

Examples of these authorizations would be: (among 29 settings)

"promotions/demotions" - the master can choose which ranks are allowed to promote/demote.

"member dismissal" - master chooses which ranks can dismiss players from FC.

"gil access" - master chooses how ranks can interact with the FC bank; full access, deposit only, or no access.

So it sounds to me that your FC master needs to set the "hierarchy settings" more strict. They must have overlooked promotions/demotions setting; allowing ranks to promote themselves. This is not a bug or a game issue, this sounds like poor management skills of FC master.
