FC Chest just gets raded, and GMs can do nothing.

I don't understand why you wouldn't restricted the access. My FC is very small, only 19 members at the moment, and pretty much everything is restricted even removing crops from the garden has to be done by me or one of my officers to ensure nothing untoward happens. Mmorpgs are rife with scammers and thieves and some of them will stop at nothing to get your stuff. My FC have collected a nice amount of gil in our FC chest which we use for FC crafting, we used to use it for relic weapons and materia as well and stuff that may crop up as and when. A scammer joined our FC and noticing the amount of gil they decided to try and dupe me into getting it. It started very subtly with them commenting the FC needed redecorating and we could use our gil to do, following this they tried to get themselves appointed as our 'decorator'. Luckily I wasn't born yesterday. Basically my point is not to trust anyone too easily especially if it involves hard earned loot gained collectively.

To answer your question, until the FC Workshop was introduced, we only used the FC chest for gil, which actually did have restrictions in place. The FC chest was pretty much a dumping ground for materials and items that members didn't want. I supposed no one, myself included, bothered to check if the restrictions were set appropriately for how we use the chest currently.

I'm still a bit put off at the fact that not only can the GMs do nothing, but they really can only be bothered to send copy/paste template responses. Seems like a very cold and sterile form of customer service. The situation is frustrating enough, it really doesn't help matters when the response I get looks like it was written by a Stepford wife. I suppose that's more of an issue of the tone they decided to use in their template responses. Then the robots send me an email asking to fill out a survey on their performance. Not exactly a shining example of tact.

I still find it a bit odd that items that are bound to the FC can actually leave the FC, and are allowed to be used elsewhere. It still seems like an oversight for the developers.

Really dude, move on. It is your own fault so stop try to blame the thing on SE.

The item have NEVER bound to FC

No thanks. This discussion is far to interesting. Considering how binding works for gear, and some furniture, it's rather odd that airship parts can be easily passed around. If this becomes standard practice, I'm not sure how long it will be allowed to continue.

As for SE "not touching how players play," I'm not sure I completely agree with you there. They have been making adjustment, and playing the occasional killjoy, for quite some time now (pretty much every update). Or perhaps you were referring to something else, and used improper wording?

The real issue isn't what happened, or how it's handled. What I find most troubling is how easily it can get out of hand, and how the current policies basically allow it to get that way. I'd imagine if and when it does eventually get to that point, I'm going to wager they'd do a bit more than simply hide behind their robot responses. You may not like it, but I really don't see it going any other way but in that direction.
