SE, Please fix this FC exploit

[Woggers]

Regardless of if this particular FC gets their money back or not, I want SE to make it so you can't promote above your own rank. You can't promote anyone to Master at least I hope? >.>; That would be be beyond dumb.

Agreed, you should not be able to promote to a rank higher than your own. And the only person who should be able to have the Master position is the FC leader, and no one else should be able to hold this title. If the current Master quits or leaves, either the FC is disbanded, or the Master title is given to someone else, and immediately removed from previous Master. i.e. FC can only have 1 Master at a time. On top of that the Master should be the only one that is able to withdraw gil for the company chest. The only thing I guess you'd have to take the hit on is the items. And most items are usually so easy to obtain in this game, it wouldn't be much of a loss if someone were to ransack the chest.

As a FC Master I once promoted someone else to Master because I was going to be away for a while. It lets me do it because I am the Master, I assume. There can indeed be only one Master at a time, when I accepted the promotion, it made that person the Master and lowered my rank to the lowest possible one. Now I'm just hoping there isn't some weird issue that could let someone else than the Master promote someone to Master.

I tried it a few weeks ago and only Master can promote someone to Master rank. It's still messed up either way OP. I hope you get your gil back. In my FC, I think the leader saw this problem a while ago so now only 3 of us at the highest ranks have the promotion perk.
