Hi, first time poster here. I am the leader of an FC, we are very small & are currently trying to recruit new members. I do it the old fashioned way by sending out /shout announcements in major hubs.
My main problem here is when we get applications from potential new members, there is no obvious notification anywhere on my screen, other than me having to check the FC menu religiously. This is ridiculous.

Most people also will not wait 24 hours for their application to get accepted, they will apply, wait maybe an hour or 2 then withdraw.
