Well I got disillusioned by FC's and their promises, only to find that that's all they were promises that were never kept. In the end I use party finder/duty finder to do all the stuff I want to (not interested in statics or anything like that tbh not much of a raider) and myself and my partner have created an FC for ourselves so we have somewhere to chat and also not be inundated with blind FC invites. We're now much happier that way.

I guess if I ever get interested in doing end game content (no where near end game atm) then I'll look for a link shell that does that stuff, but until then I'm happy with the way things are
