SE, Please fix this FC exploit

[Canadane]

In other games the rules usually are that you can promote someone up to the rank below yours.

In FF14 you can promote people to a rank above your own.

That is usually considered an exploit. Imagine if your supervisor at work could promote you to be his boss, does that seem right to you?

The issue stems from FC's only having 2 ranks. Master and not-master.
You can make as many categories for non-master members as you like (or up to 5 or whatever the limit is). But giving promotion/demotion privileges to one simply says "you can shuffle people around any category you'd like" as they're all effectively the same rank. There is no hierarchy. There is only a monarchy.
