SE, Please fix this FC exploit

Ouch

Really sorry OP....

And people called me 'stingy' for holding House donations in one of my retainers......

I update the collected House Fund money into our FC topic on the board, and throw the money in the FC chest once a week so any/everyone in the FC can see that the total matches what I claim. Put gil in, immediately take out, Gil shows in the History for quite a while. I had no idea about being able to promote higher than your rank, but in the early days of the game I had a lot of those shady people try to infiltrate our FC and steal contents from Company Chest. They would mad-dash for the chest, see they couldn't take anything then insta-drop FC. This happened enough times for me and the other 10-15 real close friends of our FC to agree upon my secondary retainer just being the Place-holder for our House Fund. Seeing as how I have donated over half the fund myself, it was an obvious choice, and one that was agreed upon amongst the higher ranked players in our FC. People can donate gil into the Chest or by mailing to me, and we have had no problems.

Until the obvious flaws you have commented on have been addressed/fixed, I suggest y'all think hard about this way of donation. It's not the cleanest, or most friendly option....but you would still have your money....

Once again, sorry to hear this happened to your FC and I truly hope it can all be resolved for you.

This is why only I as master have the ability to promote and my quartermaster is the only person with access to the gil in our chest other than myself.
