Entitled people kick from FC harassing after??

Leadership bias is probably the biggest thing I hate about FCs from all that I've experienced.

Heaven forbid you somehow offend an officer or anyone with close ties to your FC leader in general because they can/will resort to slander just to get you kicked from the FC if they're petty enough.

I'm still pissed off at how I was slandered out of a FC a few months ago and the leader who I was previously on good terms with now has me blacklisted all because some "reputable source" said I was badmouthing them. They didn't even give me a chance to disprove what I supposedly said about them by offering any details about the when/where of the supposed incident that upset them so badly.

I think a large part of the issue is that some FC's aren't honest about how cliquey they want to be. Often anybody beyond the core officer team and their close friends are just treated as window dressing. On the other hand, I've seen members welcomed warmly who don't put in any effort at all to get involved with stuff.

I'm wary when it comes to joining a FC these days. I found a brilliant one back on Balmung towards the end of my time there but had to leave because the ping became too much to play MCH effectively and my EU schedule no longer lines up as well as it once did with NA players.
