Xbox Bans Final Fantasy 14 Players for Guild Recruitment

TL;DR Summary
Final Fantasy XIV players on Xbox are reporting bans for using the game's terminology and systems to recruit teammates within Xbox's Looking For Group feature, with bans lasting up to 61 days. The bans seem to be triggered by normal in-game interactions, such as recruiting for a "free company," and even using abbreviations like "FC." This situation highlights the challenges of automated moderation systems lacking context, forcing Xbox players to navigate around established game terminology to play as intended.
