Possible ban?

[CelestePinke]

So, I was in a FC and I used their company credits to buy the portraits and I left. I know that's bad move but I honestly just wanted to see what they looked like in portrait form. Today, one of the members whispered me and said that they will have me banned/reported because of me "robbing" them. My theory is that the FC leader is at fault for not regulating what certain ranks can do in the FC. I was the lowest rank and I could add/move furniture and all that good stuff. I have been in many other FC that would only let the low ranks just feed the chocobos or tend to the plants.

Since you state you could add and remove furnishings, why didn't you just place them in the FC house to "see what they looked like in portrait form" and then place them in the FC chest before you left the company?

the only question to ask truthfully is

OP : Why do you ask if you are going to be baned ? you have done what you have done even if you would be baned is too late to do anything against it.

So conclusion : you want attention....unfortunately for my taste you got too many of it already that you dont deserve beyond the answer yes/no

Whenever I want to see what things look like before I buy them, I search on the internet.

Anyway, even though you can take it without asking doesn't mean you should. Common courtesy.
If someone invited you into their home for the first time and said "make yourself at home", would it be okay to just to open up their fridge and begin eating their food? And then just leave? Without saying anything?

It's still polite to ask.

You couldn't spend all of 30 seconds using google image search or visiting one of the popular ffxiv furniture sites? I would apologize and at least pay them for the portraits if not return them if you haven't bound them yet. You already said you knew it was a bad move. You can't undo it, but you can at least try to even the scales.

You posting making this thread proves you have a guilty conscience. It's like you're looking for reassurance in what you've done. I'm not the one for drama, I'll keep silent about it, but you better hope others from faerie doesn't see this. Rumours might spread, y'know?

Carefull on the terms used Maiko, we get the idea but the chosen words might get you reported :/

I am curious if this is this person's MO. Does this type of behavior carry over to people in the Marriage hookup mega thread you have posted in continuiously? Would you take from someone in that situation as well or do you see that differently? Just curious as to the motivation overall in the gaming environment as there are always going to be opportunists.

I think it was careless of the FC but it isn't something that would cross my mind to do anyway as I tend to be in an FC and stay and hang out with those people long term. But I know not everyone is looking to make friends. Idc if you get banned but it does raise an interesting question.

I doubt you get banned, but it sure does speak volumes about your character as a person. A good example of the type of weed I keep pulled out of my life.

[AlphaFox]

You basically steal from them (even if the leader didn't set them correctly) but seeing as your posting this you obviously feel you did something wrong and knew it from the start. You may not be banned but next time you have people being rude to you on the server need to remember this cus I am sure word will get around. It also goes further to people wondering why some people can be absolute jerks and not care about others, cus instances like this start to break them down and refuse to trust new people.

Type of buff is irrelevant, although if you are referring to Back on Your Feet buff, how does that not help everyone regardless of what they are running? Maybe someone else may have wanted them and could put the portraits in their private chamber?
