Friends, venues, fcs, player made events, personal decoration, etc.
Housing should not be for farming gil all alone with 2 clicks and 1 cutscene. It should not be for farming gil at all.
It is ok to farm gil.
But to mix these two means that people who want a house can not get a house because people who only want gil are taking up houses only for gil.
Players that want a house are locked away from housing by players who do not want a house.
Do you get it now? That is the core issue.
The player who uses the house for sub gil does not want a house. They want the sub gil.
Are there people who want both? Yes. However, far too many people just want the gil and do not want the house.
This directly leads to less people having a house, because more people want just the "free" gil.
Again, so, because some people only want the gil and do not want to use the house, people who want the house cannot get the house.
