Auto Demo Timer Restarting

In case anyone misses it. Auto demo is restarting with the arrival of 5.4.

A couple things to remember:
Tenants do not reset the timer for personal houses, the owner must enter the house.
You must enter the house itself to reset the timer. The outdoor space does not trigger a reset.

To be honest it would be nice if they just continued to add more wards to accommodate the demand enough so that these timers wouldn't be necessary.

With the coming change in administration, we may finally get this damn virus under control. Excellent timing.

The timers are necessary when people quit or die, the plot can go back to being used by an active player instead of just sitting there being unused for years.

Not unless they start actually doing something about the people who have multiple plots on one account. Otherwise those people will just continue to accumulate plots.

This.

I've owned a house consecutively for 5 years and even I'll say that the moment I stop playing for a long period, my house should be freed up for use by someone who will use it.

It's still a way off yet, at least 6 months, if not more due to production and logistics, and a vaccine isn't a free pass to reduce other measures. Plus whatever the coming administration puts in place is still going to be largely subject to public cooperation, and the anti-masker movement isn't going away any time soon, especially when bundled into the Trump cult and made partisan just like everything the right wing set their crosshairs on.
Basically don't count your chickens yet, progress is being made but it's not going to come that quickly.

Right, because the administration is the reason its out of control. It couldn't possibly be the thousands/millions of people NOT following guidelines or new state legislature.... right? SMH, you kids these days.
