Before Name Change, Fix FC Bank Thieves First!

Why put money in the chest if it isn't going to be used soon?
Deposite it only whe you fc is about to make a collective purchase. Especially if u have.trust issues

[Titor]

I wonder if the people who have this problem also leave their home's door wide open while away for vacation, then blame the government for not controlling thieves better after their place gets burglarized.

Not just that but also puts a sign outside that says
"Free, please take!"

This is why you don't give every shmuck access to the chest. Make it where only the top few who are trusted and are active can access items at all times. Don't promote more people to chest access level because you want to be kind to your FC. There's no reason to have so many people with chest access.

Permissions could be fixed to disallow individuals to adjust their own ranks, it's also true that people with a rank which has been given the ability to promote should be considered trusted before earning that rank. Some people are failing to realize that this isn't a matter of blaming people for stealing or bad management of current permissions, but that the current permissions could be improved.

I would like to see expanded permissions so functionality is much greater than currently set. Like, a setting for people to withdrawal up to a certain amount of money or a certain amount of items per bank slot per day.

I was robbed shortly after I first started a FC, but the only thing of consequence at that time was materia. Currently, with strict permissions, there are no robberies however the FC Chest functions more like a display case rather than something to be used as a central repository for everyone to benefit from.

I'm a pretty trusting person. So if I ever give someone access to our FC bank, I tell others I'll be responsible for anything that might go missing. Which isn't saying much cause all we have is 120k in gil and cheap housing items that our retainers have brought us that we put in a tab that anyone has access to.

Members understand that if they put something expensive in that tab and it goes missing, nothing will be done. No name shaming on our part.

It's like leaving a jar full of money in the window. You're just inviting trouble.

Just going to point this out since people seem to not know, but whenever you friend or blacklist someone or whatever it stores them by player ID not their name. So should they name change they are still on whatever lists you had them on and the name is updated. Even if they transfer servers then come back as long as you don't remove the (Deleted) entry it will be updated with whatever their current name is.

Our fc chest works like this: Leader and officers have full access. Only Leader has access to gil. Vip rank has access to first and second item chest slot levels. Everyone else has access to the first chest item slot level. I think almost everyone has access to crystals (minus the new people and low ranks) Anyone can donate crystals and gil. As you can imagine, third item slot is for the expensive items or rares and only the leadership has access. :P

That's why you have all the setting at your hand to allow which rank can access each slot tier or none at all.

Simple solutions is just don't rank them up unless they are active and been join for a long period of times. You can also do something like this...

1 weeks - Access to Tier 1
2 weeks - Access to Tier 2
3 Weeks - Access to Tier 3
One Month - Two Month - Access to Tier 4

Don't put anything valuable in Slot 1 - 3. Only Valuable at Slot 4. And don't let them access gil and crystals of course. This ways they can't jump from one FC to another to do the same to other FC.

Then if you know them really well, can let them take Crystal or Gils. But only recommend if you know that person really well or real friends. SE don't really need to fixed anything. As a players you have all the necessary tools to do this already. SE not there to babysit. People who get in invite and let them access all Chest is beyond me, and you are just asking for it. It like you're asking them to take advantage of you.

First off, it is not SE's problem if the people who made/run the FC are too lazy to set up ranks with different permissions. No access, view access, deposit access and all access.

Just give the "main members" access to deposit gil only with the admins you trust full access. You can give each chest tab different permissions as well. For example, Make one or two tabs have full access with the last tab (or two) with view access only. If your members see something they can use in the second or third tab, it can me moved to the first tab (or two) by people who have been given access.

I fail to see why you think SE should be responsible for a private FC's actions. Especially if you let them have access in the first place. Just because your FC doesn't want to take a little time for your own security that is built in just boggles my mind. The tools are already there.

This is a simple solution for dumb OP.

1. Lock Chest 2 and 3 for the highest Ranking Member, Chest 1 for the lowest.
2. Only put the highest Valuable items in Chest 3. Chest 1 for JUNKS and 2 for Medium Value.
3. Thieves are nice to clean the JUNK off Chest 1 that gives headache so I don't mind and give a fk.
4. Again like 1. GOD DAMN LEARN TO LOCK FC CHEST BY RANKS!!!!
5. Only FC Leader is allowed for Gil Withdrawn.
6. Shards/Crystal/Cluster, LOCK for Highest Rank only! or Medium and High Rank.
