Hey, I know it's the goblet, but I just wanted to let people know, there is a medium FC house in ward 2 on Balmung that is now empty.
It's the one right next to the water, so someone can have a chance at a nice FC house (and being my neighbor).
Turn on Demolish for Housing and fix housing please.

I wouldn't worry about that going unnoticed. The bids are definitely going to get well into the triple digits.

Favourite location! Wish it happened on my server at some point.

Goblet may be the least desired district, but I'd say that this plot and its small neighbor next to the waterfall are two of the best plots anywhere.Quote:

Here's another idea.
Make a veteran rewards tier for a specific veteran only housing ward.
5yr, 7yr, 10yr maybe something like that and if it fills create a new one so that all veterans can gain a house.
Could even have multiple tiers so maybe as you reach the 7yr or 10yr there may be extra availability of those more desired spots and sizes.
I realize this may not be a popular idea because it doesn't bring housing to all players. -
10-24-2022, 12:20 PMDamianFataleThis makes sense. What people don't realize about the Chaos and Light Datacenters is that the places they are located at are not usually as big as the United States, and Canada. These countries are often only as big as medium to larger American states, so when people say EU datacenters, they literally mean the entire EU, and the United Kingdom.Quote:

In fact, it could be argued that Canada needs its own Data Center because of this. When I say America, I do not mean Canada. Canada is 9.985 million kilometers across. The problem with Canada is that the datacenters wouldn't be as useful because it has a much lower population.
Europe has 746.4 million people as of 2018.
America has 329.5 millionas of 2020.
Canada has a population of 38.01 million as of 2020.
The reason Europe is bigger is because its older, denser, and more developed due to each area being a developed country rather than a state. Canada is smaller because it has a lot of unuseable land, or land that is just too far away, or too hard to pass over due to the constant changing of ice, and snow over bodies of water. America is big because well, its America. We founded a large country, and populated it in a similar way to a Republic. We also increased our population heavily during the last few centuries.
As a result I do not see the housing demolition closed any time soon until Ukrainian FFXIV players can safely resume logging in to check on their houses.
Canada needs at least one data center for ping times, but its not likely any time soon. There may not be enough players to support it. Though I know a lot of people that play in Vancouver and Victoria. (some of my friends.) My current FC is also primarily Canadian. This game is played a lot in Canada, it just not be known enough that there are a lot of players.
Now they could resume demolition on NA, and Japanese Servers, but I don't know if they will. Some people refuse to leave the servers even after servers closer to home are introduced. Japan and Russia have also had tense relations and are technically under a ceasefire with Russia. Square Enix has also had a reputation for hiring Russian talent I.e. Origa. She was a brilliant singer all the way until her passing, so I imagine the Russian/Ukrainian topic is quite sensitive to them, and they are merely adapting out of courtesy. I have a feeling that there is an overall fear of potential retaliation from Russia as well, even if things seem alright at the time. It's a sensitive topic, so I think the demolition being non active still stands for those reasons. -

That's prime real estate. Especially with the Halloween event going on-- the little ghosts "playing" on the npc island are a sight to behold.
He has a ghost admiring his muscles during this event. Of course you need to check at night when the ghosts are out!Quote:
