not allowed to leave FC

[Squa11_Leonhart]

you can just leave the FC and collect your furnishings from an npc in the ward cant recall which one off hand ... maybe locking all members out of fc creates some serious bug never had members locked out before thats fck'd up definitely report him for harassment

No you can't, that feature was only added for the case of discharging members that have a personal room.

Umh, that sounds horrible tbh. I wouldn't mind to give something if asked. But being forced to? Leaves a bitter aftertaste....no thanks.

It's just ACCESS. The perks are, what, a summoning bell and crafting bonus to use while leveling (if you have the tables)?

Another perk is your private room, that you cannot get if you cannot enter house.
Then I do not posted that reason for any arguing how much you like it or not, it were just to let you know there are reasons for the option to exists.

So, you don't like the fact that people think your reason is stupid?

Great, then don't post. Restricting access because "No put anything forward, so they can't have a room is retarded and stupid.

Doesn't sound particularly welcoming does it?

Permission to build a private room is granted separately. Allowing entry level members the ability to walk inside the house vs simply stand outside in the yard might make then feel like an actual part of the FC and more interested in contributing.

You do know that private rooms cost 300,000 gil, right? It's not like you just join the FC and automatically get one, you have to be able to afford it. :B
And what kind of perks do you get from the private rooms? They are purely visual, serving no purpose other then being able to decorate it, which cost even more money and/or time (if you are crafting the furniture).

There might be reasons, but "you're basically not considered a part of our FC until you pay us" is not a good one.

Not to defend it, because I think it's a terrible and alienating idea to bar members from entering your FC house until they've reached a certain rank, but there ARE perks inside a FC house that "leeches" could theoretically abuse. The vendors you can put there are awesome, and I could easily see a crafter joining a FC SOLELY for the purpose of accessing their vendor.

Of course no matter how antisocial the leech, the very act of crafting contributes company points so it's not really feasible to be a TOTAL leech. Also, having someone access the vendor doesn't actually cost the FC members anything.

A way people COULD cost an FC actual money is joining them in order to eat their food furnishings. I find it hilarious, though, to contemplate anyone being paranoid enough to believe someone would actually join a FC to eat their furnishings. XD If it did happen, I'd imagine it would be an actual targeted attack against the FC; someone from outside the FC who has a grudge or something... They fool someone into inviting them to the FC, and then they DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE! THEY DRINK IT UP!

In their defense I have seen some fc's charge people jo join.
