This pertains to both Free Companies and the user interface but since the FC forum is always full of recruitment threads I figured I would put this here.

Basically, I feel the Free Company interface is severely lacking in overall usability. The interface does offer some good information for people to look at but seeing as it's a Free Company - the primary gathering place for people to join together and play through content - there is little to no interaction.

I really feel like adding things like a calendar board for event scheduling, multiple announcement fields to relay more information and even a bulletin board where people could post things they want to get done would add so much value to a Free company and its members.


It's commonplace at this point to just create a website for these purposes, but I for one have found it is very difficult to get people on a website much less interacting and being involved in the process. Adding these elements in-game would allow the members of a FC to come together and have even more fun together on top of focusing on current content.

Tell me what you all think.
