1. Access controlled by FC leaders
2. The need for all members to pay a portion of the cost for the purchase of the housing.
3. Communal storage facilities

My questions are:

1. How much control will FC leaders have. This is my personal space I do not want interference.

2. Can leaders kick me out on a whim. I do not want to spend a large amount of Gil to procure housing then all of a sudden lose it for whatever reason. How is my investment protected?

3. Who will have access to the communal storage? Will it be like a Guild bank where once deposited it becomes community property or will our items be flagged for our use only?


First of all, Yoshi said Housing will be available for FC only at first till the community settles in.
So a few months maybe after release you will be able to purchase housing for yourself only. (if you have the moneeey)

A FC consisting of at least 4 members including leader, can buy a house and share the costs.
Sharing the costs is not needed but probable as its expensive.

How a FC is split in terms of power and control is not really known, it could be there are some more key positions.
Further it is not known if power over housing is split if costs are shared, latter could very well be possible.


As i understood from the live letter, everyone from a FC gets a room assigned or can choose one. That room is probably like the inn rooms right now and atleast instanced. Further i dont think FC leader can interfer with your room or even kick you out of the room/house if you shared costs.

I share your concerns and hope housing will be fair to everyone.
