    While I don't really like filling out applications, the aim is basically to weed out people who would just join on a whim and leave the next day. So it's not necessarily about the application itself, but more to see if you really want to put in some effort to join.

    So why are you complaining? Why make a thread about it?

    I would have taken this with a bit more credibility had you cleared -anything- from Binding Coils, especially turn 5.

    Otherwise even a casual FC is going to want to know some things about you just to see if you'd be a good fit with them. If you use explicit language, then 'family friendly' FCs probably won't work for you. On the opposite side there are FCs that aren't for the easily offended. These are just examples.
    Actually he/she dont need a FC but a linkshell or chat channel. There is a difference, linkshells are the chat channels thats where you habg out and the FC is endgame.

    i did Binding Coil turn 1 it was a shout group i ask to join and took me they only ask me if i have 5 darklight armor set and i also told them it was my first time. The hard part was was the last boss you had to keep the two snakes away from one another and kill at same time. I don't know about turn 2-5 i have not done that yet

    FC and LS share no real big difference, expect the buffs.
    I have 3 LS. We trade, we ask to do dungeons together and we have fun and chat.
    Just like a FC. No where does it say FC's only cater to End-game, it's what you make of the FC.

    His point was you have not "beaten" the game. Yet you make the claim it can be done without an FC(Or an LS even). Not saying it's not possible, but don't make the claim if it hasn't been done.

    If you only want an FC for people to chat with and get FC buffs, there are plenty of those out there and they are typically shouting on servers for members just handing out invites.

    If an FC is asking for an application and you don't understand why, then you probably wouldn't be a good fit in there anyway so no need to worry about that.

    There are endgame-focused FCs that look to recruit capable/experienced endgame raiders who also can show up to their particular scheduled events. In order to determine such things, an application process is the most effective method.

    Sure, it's a video game but you don't need to just have a knee-jerk reaction without putting any thought into this. It serves the same purpose job applications in real life do - filtering out people who wouldn't be a good fit for your group for whatever reason.

    How do you know it hasn't been done before? I've seen people shout for randoms for turn 4 or turn 5 groups. I think its -very- possible to do content without an FC or LS, but most times people will still ask you to join their vent or mumble even though you are a random.

    See, you bring proof when you make the claim. He did not. I also said in my post that it wasn't impossible either.
