    Would not surprise me if some one reported you for harassment if you invited them more than once. Most people find random FC invites rude, some even to the extent of reporting you. It wouldn't surprise me if you were reported and that lead to GMs watching you. But if you are random spamming FC invites, I'm sorry but you kind of deserve it. Either ask people first or shout and wait for people to send you a tell for an invite.

    You invite over 500 people a day to your FC? That would be spamming yes ESP if you repeatedly send the invites to the same people, and you prob are. Another thing is don't EVER send a blind FC invite - it's rude, tacky, unprofessional, and just weird. You need a temp ban for harassment, and if you continue your methods I would support a full ban based on harassment.

    SE should not have to implement things to control your actions when your perfectly capable of controlling your own actions... Or are you?

    Check the "Inappropriate behavior" section of the Prohibited Activities in Final Fantasy XIV
    under "Spam". For more info perhaps. It may not even be another player reporting you but just the STF noticing it. They are constantly being qued about RMT spam so it is likely they are trying to cut back on this behavior because spam is spam no matter what it says in the spam.

    Sounds perfectly appropriate. Hopefully you will take the warning to heart and stop that behavior...

    is this really leading to a ban ? of is this some kind hack mail...

    don't blame me for raging people that is getting company invites randomly...maybe add block company invites first instead of ban warning people who play's everyday and help new peeps with there questions in game...

    really dissepointed if this is a real mail ... if they watch me like a gold seller / hack site link spammer..i wil definetly quit this game ...

    so please give me more info about real or fake mail...
    Not trying to be mean, but I'm glad they did that to you, so you (and others) who just spam invite others will get the hint that its just tactless and unwelcomed.

    Well to me it's alright to maybe say something in area chat for recruitment every 15-20 minutes, traveling between the more populated areas doing this as well, and not spamming invitations to everyone. Really the only people you should invite are those who send tells back to you. It can get annoying(and apparently suspicious) being spammed to death with invites, especially if you've already declined them once before.

    It's rude as hell. Perhaps OP shouldn't be lazy or over zealous.

    It is pretty common though, not the sort of thing I would think would lead to a warning.

    And as the OP says, he/she is running a social raiding guild, you would expect them to communicate with the players before tossing random invites i.e being social.

    I hate random invites. This is why I usually make a storage guild on new servers before i join a real one. It is rude to just spam invites. It is distracting as well. I don't mind recruiters who shout their messages, i can just block them when i have time. But invites leave a popup on my screen till it expires or i respond to it.
