You state that you are NA, but reading your posts makes me feel like there is a language barrier. Where exactly is the majority of your FC located?
Sad truth of it is; many people will leave if they feel those in power or those they RP with are hard to understand. If it is troublesome/headache-ridden to try and understand what someone is trying to tell them during basic RP they may leave just to relieve themselves from it. While some may try and stick it out, others will look elsewhere for RP without the hassle of something like that.
Also, there is a huge housing crisis on Balmung. You will need to pay someone to release their house if you want any chance for your FC to have one. I think you would need around 10-15 mill just for a small if you include the price to get someone to release; though selling houses for profit is against the TOS but is never enforced.
OTHER NOTES:
The FC theme may not appeal to people. I feel when I read it I was reading something about White Knights and how everything is 100% evil and needs to be abolished (just from glancing it over). Many people have characters that aren't 100% Good. More people tend to lean towards Neutral which kills a large chunk of the base that will want to join, or can join proper for IC reasoning.
Another is how you state your FC chat is IC. Many people see that as a turn off and some hate having to use LS's for OOC FC things, but would rather it be Vise Versa.
Take anything I say with a grain of salt. These are just my impressions.
No offense at all man I'm not the type to get that easily offended by what people say.Â
We are in the NA mostly, well one is in Canada but that's pretty much it. But as for in-game, we're still figuring that out since Ul'dah is full to the point of lagging me to all 7-hells lol.
It is sad but it wasn't anything like be being hard or too confusing to understand. I was fairly easy to understand everyone who joined had fun and helped them with a lot of dgns, and quest, etc. But i get and understand what you mean by being either too confusing r hard to understand me.
With just me and my friends planned to just save up for a big house but if it is that hard to get a house we might just settle for a small one then maybe save up then for a bigger house. But yeah people have told me about TOS about that and it was few mentors who told me.Â
But really appreciate all this advice you gave cause me and my friends look and read all the replies.Â

It is kinda like white knights but close, our RP does not think everything is 100%, rather that everyone has darkness in them as well as light. We just look at our world and see just how broken it is. It mostly like the Soul Society from Bleach (Anime). But going alone with the FFXIV lore, which of course out own spin on it without going overboard with it. Not Gods or anything like that.Â
Example: my character Kuji is not perfect he grew up in little al migo (sorry for the spelling) 2 la's raised him till he went off on his to find his place. Which all changed when an unknown primal contacted him (not evil primal). The short version is that the primal broke his body down into 9 different crystals gave them kuji. Then he met Hydaelyn who know the primal following my character around.Â
If any of that makes any sense ^^; still makes any sense to you.
