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

[Shneibel]

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.
