Premature reinstatement of auto demolition

Well this just proves you didn't read much of what I posted given I never said "game > real life" at any point. I was only explaining how digital things can be important to someone. And then explaining that not everything is replaceable whether it's digital or not.

And this is all I will say on this particular matter because anything else would just be repetition.

I would just like people to show more compassion to those who lost something that is difficult to replace through no fault of their own. That situation sucks no matter what you lost. I find some people's attitudes towards those who lost their house during the pandemic to be awful.

Again I emphasise that I'm against a rollback. I think the only way to fix this situation is to have a proper housing system that excludes and punishes no one. Which likely won't happen -_-

I did read a lot of the things, not just your post, yours was the first one to come to mind, and yes... it seem like people want handouts, instead of being in the game, the time that it was in corona lock down, was and is long enough, you get information, when your stuff runs out, and gives you enough time to buy a month to log in and extent that time, you can keep just to the base subscription, that only permit one character as well, items should not be kept out of the game, so others can not get any fun with them.

I don't know how my posts are related to anyone wanting a handout. Literally did not mention giving anyone anything for free. You can agree that losing something that you had no power to prevent sucks whether you agree with handouts or not. But it appears you're more interested in blaming people for their circumstances rather than acknowledge something called bad luck.

I don't see a valid argument for the autodemolition to be be temporarely removed again, it is clear that we are going to live with the situation for years to come as it is, and keeping plots hostage for people that may not return for years is unreasonable.

I didn't talk about removing auto demo either but okay.

I can't help but wonder... Can it even be done? They would have to keep records of how the housing wards were back ar the point they decided to re-instate the auto demo, that has to have changed significantly. And without remembering what was on those houses, such as the items and their positions, can it even be called their house anymore? I don't think they keep that kind of record, so even if they would go scorthed earth on the whole deal, the people that would have their houses back would just get empty plots again with, at best, their storage restored... If that.

So, not only would you be destroying a lot of homes but the restored ones would just be dead ground. And that is assuming they even cared about their houses, it might be that they just wanted a garden patch or something that may be provided by the new islands anyways.

I'm sorry your friends lost their houses, I really am, I know how much hell it is to go Housing (Savage). So I have a solution I can think of that SHOULD he easier to implement. They probably don't keep records of how Wards were last year, but they MIGHT keep records of who got their houses demolished. Give those "relocator" status, as in, allow them to purchase a new home as if they were relocating their old plots. They technically had a housing deed anyway so that might be feasable to implement with an item or something similar.

At best it would allow returning players that got their houses demolished to get a plot back without being at the mercy of that atrocious random timer, that has to be worth a lot. And the worst con would be that it would make Housing (Savage) even savagier, because of an increased numbers of "relocators."
