FC Chest settings are broke. Solutions for FC Bank?

[Niota]

Ideas suggested so far to improve the Free Company (FC) Chest:

- There are no options for "deposit" only. This means some bloke can clean out your chest.
- There are no logs for chest activities. IE if someone steals everything from the chest you don't even know who did it.
- Chest settings leave little to desired when it comes to giving higher-ranking FC members access to the Chest. At best you can slowly allow members to view inside the chest and nothing more.

- Auto stack;
- A sort button: to sort by ABC, # of items, etc
- A way to select multiple items from your inventory at once and put it into a chest (like a crtl+click listener)
- Ability to purchase more slots
- Ability to increase/decrease how much members can take from the chest (aka "withdrawal limit" setting) depending on rank. AKA members with rank 1 can only take up to 50gil and 10 items from the FC chest, etc. Also, Permissions PER chest?
- Ability to allow members limited promotion/demotion settings. So a Rank 3 member could promote someone to rank 2 or 1, but cannot promote them to the same rank or higher than themselves.
- Can we change "leader" name for the FC chest setting to "View Only" ?
- Tax or membership fee for the FC to go towards Housing, Pets, etc

Currently Free Company (FC) Chest settings are "broke": You either have Full access, View-only access, or no access.

- There are no options for "deposit" only. This means some bloke can clean out your chest.
- There are no logs for chest activities. IE if someone steals everything from the chest you don't even know who did it.
- Chest settings leave little to desired when it comes to giving higher-ranking FC members access to the Chest. At best you can slowly allow members to view inside the chest and nothing more.

With that stated, does anyone have solutions for allowing members to donate gil/items/etc to the FC without risking FC chest security? Thanks in advance!

Agree with all those points, there really needs to be a deposit option... Chest Activities would have to be its own separate log I think though, especially if like the rest of the Free Company Activities it shows up in chat options. If someone is moving a lot of items around I can see that getting very annoying very fast, personally though I'd only care to see if people are moving Gil around, thankfully you can split access to each Chest so we're keeping 1 Chest for the important stuff and leaving the rest for items we wouldn't care about being stolen.

Currently I'd say the best work around for allowing members to donate is to add everyone to your Friends List. If they want to donate, they can send you items via the Mail Mog. With that in mind, I'd really like to see the list of people you can send Mail to increased to include Free Company members instead of just people on your Friends List.

Hello,

In patch 2.1, we’ll be adding a "deposit only" authority setting for company chests, which you can set depending on a member’s rank.

Additionally, to go along with feature we are also planning to make it possible to view a deposit and withdrawal history.

Thank you, this is sorely needed.

That's the best news I've heard regarding this yet! This helps an enormous amount when regulating who has access.

The next thing I really want to see is the ability to set withdrawal limits for specific permission ranks. If we could have those ranks tied to bank access that would extremely helpful instead of having two separate ranks systems to manually attach.

It's extremely confusing that "view only" is called "leader".

I assumed leader was.. I dunno, a lot of access?

This is a must for shared FC inventory and gils. One must have an audit trail in order to help and track FC thief.

Thanks, Camate! These options and features are desperately needed!

As others have said, it's great that the team is listening to our feedback, especially while they have their hands full with server issues.

We need LOTS more than JUST the ability to deposit...I'll help sum it up for you.

I'll make a new forum if I can also. I'd like to sum up the fixes to the FC tools i'd like to see fixed and I'm not the only one. So I'll start listing them because all I've seen is they're adding a deposit feature for FC Members and that's it. So here goes.

1. Make permissions for ranks to deposit and withdraw a number amount of stacks of items per day as well as a set amount of GIL.
2. Make it possible for officers to chat exclusively to other officers in the FC.
