Can we PLEASE get an in game option to decline FC invites without /busy

[Joint]

I mean really, it's long overdue... I'm absolutely tired of it. I shouldn't have to cut off all communication with /busy to do so.

What i do personally for those of my alts not in a FC i create a FC request with FC name and tag but don't invite people to it. They will think you're in one and not invite you.

I just made one. Me and my wife are the only members. That stopped it for us. But I agree there should be something to block them.

Report the person for harrashment, because ninja recruiting is not prohibited activity.... if everyone does that... then sooner or later you will see threads on these boards about FC leaders who has been put to jail and suspended for a few days for ninja-recruiting.

The easiest way to avoid FC invites is to just join an FC; You get free buffs and people to chat with.

I just decline the invites - it doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me.

I had done this with family and close irl friends. My partner made it after they joined ffxiv in secret. They leveled the FC all the way so we would get the buffs than surprised everyone with it one morning. I left the FC I joined because of feeling bad for saying no (aye this is indeed a me problem there >.<). After months of uwu cat girl speak and strange pet names, no offense to them they were friendly enough, but I just couldn't really relate to any of them.

For the OP if it is not too much trouble and you can find signatures just make one for yourself. I know people shouldn't have to do this, other mmos I have played do have an option in their equivalent to chat settings or character setting where you can auto decline invites like this. I do not see why square would not be able to do this on a technical level. It would just be time consuming and most likely on a to do list of quality of life changes.

I would also like this as an option.

There is a way to do this already, but it is against the TOS and a person I know uses it to get the options square has not put into the game yet. It kind of stinks mods will not be allowed ever their is a fat cat fairy reskin I would hate to have on scholar when wishing for a change of visuals. It looks sooooo cute!

Some people are not social people and don't want to be in a FC, there should be a option to auto decline invites.

You don't even have to be social if you join an FC. You can literally never interact with anyone and benefit freely from permanent XP buffs among other things. The worst you may run into is having to say hi back when they say hi to you when you log in.

Some people are so weird and self-defeatist sometimes smh.

Not even just that. When I first started playing I didn't know what sort of fc I wanted to be in because I wasn't sure what I wanted to focus on in the game. So I waited until I got to max lvl to find a fc. I can't even begin to count how many fc invites I declined. Sometimes several in a day. It was annoying. I didn't flag myself as busy because I didn't want to shut myself off from everyone. I had thought about making my own fc, but I did this in WoW on alts and ended up having people asking me what sort of guild I was in and/or if they could join. So that wasn't a solution either. And yes I know you can block guild invites in WoW but that doesn't stop players from spamming recruitment whispers to anyone who isn't in a guild.
