Limit housing bids for FCs

It always funny seeing zero people constantly liking/agreeing with Solowing's or Rinoa_353's posts.



Eeep.

So where's your instance housing system if that's your metric for change?

About halfway down page 8, this thread veered off topic. It's devolved into personal attacks and arguments about personal housing availability. You all need to lighten up, and just agree to disagree.

Yea, true. I guess FC deserve more priority if there are more of them bidding for a plot.

I mean...Garrisons were garbage.

So this devolved rather quickly. I think whatever personal insults people have need to just stick to DMs in-game or away from this post because it helps literally no one. Yapping about blocked users and people's mental health contributes nothing to the post as a whole. Make a thread to insult each other there and air your personal grievences away from here

I never said free companies alone were the problem, I’ve stated many times in many post at this point that the system is flawed from both a small FC and large FC perspective. But I still don’t think it’s okay to just insult people and get into spats because you’re upset at the system. Again, if you wanna insult people just send them a private message because doing it in a thread doesn’t help your argument.

At this point, how worth it is it to sit on Mateus and lose over and over? Because eventually I bit the bullet and just moved data centers (for a multitude of reasons, housing was a minor one). My friends and I lost our FC in the move but we’re taking the time to build it back up again, is sitting on a congested world where every plot - whether personal or FC based - is like pulling hen’s teeth genuinely worth it? Whilst you may have company credits to lose, with the amount of people you’re boasting I feel like if you moved to a non-congested/preffered world with more options for housing available, it wouldn’t be that much of a net loss per person. (You even get reimbursed for housing lost in the move.)

I still stand by my original point that 1-2 per person per FC is better than what you’re doing. Also you seem to have built a narrative that I bid on personal/FC plots, all I stated is I think swaying bids is unfair in general and did specify FC-only plots. I think the TARDIS interior would be an amazing idea if it actually got implemented sooner rather than later, but from the looks of things I’m not sure it will be for a while unless the devs see the value in it enough to give it priority.
*minor addendum: from what I read from other threads is that potentially we were supposed(?) to get TARDIS housing in 7.2/7.3 so maybe we’ll be lucky in a future patch

At this point just make your own thread because you’re not really saying anything constructive to anyone anymore especially given the latter end of your posts just devolve into insults. I understand your frustration but chewing eachother out in an online thread benefits no one.

It might be a different story for other people who already have large FCs and friend circles from their original world though, because they'll have other players right out the gate to do stuff with when they come over... assuming all of those people are willing to make the move as well. It's a big ask, and I don't blame people for not wanting to make the leap.

I don't blame people for not wanting to make the leap either, don't get me wrong - I've found more benefits personally on Dynamis over Crystal but that's mostly outside of the housing front, usually 4-man content pops pretty quickly but I'm a healer main so I'm blaming the healer/tank buff for that one.

It's certainly a big ask and isn't a cure-all, but I wanted to suggest it because it's frustrating to lose over and over on the world you've been on for a while, when there are potential places elsewhere. I understand not wanting to leave, too, and as I said, I don't blame them either for staying on their OG world

Why not Data Center travel to a more populated DC?

I'm not saying I don't, I travel back to Mateus when I wanna see friends etc - and it certainly isn't out of the question to just... press the visit other data centers button. Again i've not found too much trouble finding groups for content, even via duty roulette

I actually like your perspective a lot (same for the other local to Dynamis in the prior comment), and it is very enlightening, since the local perspective isn't one I'd considered at first. For me and the two I moved DC's with, we did it out of the necessity to escape from bad actors, one of us wanted to finally get a house since the lotto had been awful to him since he started the game, and we just wanted to kind of vibe! I found that the main reason (from mine and aformentioned friend's experiences) that we were on Crystal was just because of potential RP and/or FC stuff, I moved from Diabolos to Mateus in my early days due to someone telling me to - and I did the same to one of my friends, so I'm more comfortable in presuming that to be the case for most people.

Regrettably the PF advert spam is a plague regardless of DC. I RP and usually it's just a lot of the same.. flavour? of RP (clubs/taverns/cafe - to which, no shade to any of those, they all have their place. Clubs however can be very oversaturated).

---

I've not seen too many people lending out spaces, and if that's your perogative I'd say go for it. I do understand your perspective though, and maybe the rose tinted glasses will get old quickly for me, but I've enjoyed myself thus far d(Q~Q)

Simple fix - Only the FC master can place bids.
