Error 530 Home Directory Inaccessible

Hello guys I have a particular problem that I can't seem to get the answer to. I've tried many different ways and cannot seem to come to a conclusion

My situation

I have created a Windows FTP using IIS. I am using Windows Server 2012 R2

In IIS I have created my ftp: ftp.anthonyaudi.com

My folder structure is as follows

I have a folder called Anthony, and under Anthony I have subfolders (example Anthony1 / 2 / 3 / 4 etc)

I have created local users (Anthony / Anthony1 / 2 /3 /4 etc)

I have created a folder called localuser and under there my folder Anthony exists and all the subfolders are there.

Here is my dilemma.

When I create the folder Anthony as a virtual directory I have no problem connecting to it with user Anthony, however, if I create a virtual directory Anthony1 from INSIDE the folder Anthony I cannot connect to it with user Anthony1 I get the error 530 home directory inaccessible. 

However, if I create Anthony1 as a virtual directory under localuser I have no issues connecting to the folder with user anthony1.

What am I missing here, the idea for creating the vdir under the root folder Anthony is to keep things clean because I will eventually have other folders with subfolders and I do not want the localuser directory to become crowded.

Is this a limitation of IIS? Can I even do what I am attempting?

Thanks!
