not allowed to leave FC

[LalaRu]

...why DO we have the option to restrict housing access within the FC?...

That helps FCs as ours, that dedicated so much time and effort to get the house, being able to ask the new members to give a little contribute to our chest before get house access rights. Who wants join us just to leech the perks and give nothing in exchange, will just not be able to get housing access.

Umh, that sounds horrible tbh. I wouldn't mind to give something if asked. But being forced to? Leaves a bitter aftertaste....no thanks.

It's just ACCESS. The perks are, what, a summoning bell and crafting bonus to use while leveling (if you have the tables)? :/ Restrict nifty decorating privileges, then.

I'm kinda in agreement with this. :/ Even when we were scrambling to get the house we wanted, I never went beyond only encouraging everyone to donate. And yeah, some folks gave WAY more than others. Some gave nothing. But everyone has at least given some of their time to the FC and that's plenty. ^^



The ONLY problem I can see stemming from taking away access restriction is ending up with someone who gets a room and then proceeds to troll the FC. IIRC, you can't kick someone with a room. But there have been enough stories of members earning the trust of the FC and THEN betraying it that I doubt housing access would affect this in any way. ><

Another perk is your private room, that you cannot get if you cannot enter house.
Then I do not posted that reason for any arguing how much you like it or not, it were just to let you know there are reasons for the option to exists.

So, you don't like the fact that people think your reason is stupid?

Great, then don't post. Restricting access because "No put anything forward, so they can't have a room is retarded and stupid.

Doesn't sound particularly welcoming does it?

Permission to build a private room is granted separately. Allowing entry level members the ability to walk inside the house vs simply stand outside in the yard might make then feel like an actual part of the FC and more interested in contributing.

You do know that private rooms cost 300,000 gil, right? It's not like you just join the FC and automatically get one, you have to be able to afford it. :B
And what kind of perks do you get from the private rooms? They are purely visual, serving no purpose other then being able to decorate it, which cost even more money and/or time (if you are crafting the furniture).

lol this makes me chuckle, who in their right mind would actually pay an FC to join them? Are these FCs guaranteeing free t9 wins or something? Stupid people are stupid I guess.
