I know there are people that are going to disagree but that's ok, there are only a handful of houses in Mist and Lavender Beds left, this is after the extended free weekend (9 days), also before the free log in I was able to tolerate the RMT tells because it wasn't spammed so rapidly, the restriction that should be implimented is,
You can't buy a FC/Personal house if you don't have a active sub.
There are people that I haven't seen online before or since the free log in that that has bought their FC/Personal houses during the 9 day free log in and that is around the time the RMT /tells have ramped up to the point that I have no choice but go in busy mode to avoid it before I even been on more than 5 min, I hope next free log in I hope that the restriction mentioned here is in place, or there will be next to or no houses for people that really plays XIV, I also hope more wards gets added with hevensward (or very shortly after).
why free log in's needs a resriction

I'd prefer to not restrict free login weekend so that more people play and stay in FFXIV.

new wards and/or subdivisions are needed, as far as the free weekends go it's ok, sure there are a small percentage that stays, that's great, if they are buying gill, they need to be banned plain and simple. -
03-13-2015, 01:30 AMKaze3434how does buying a house tie to RMT? also, it seems people dont understand how free login weekends(or campaigns like this one) work. people dont get to play the game completely for free. you have to have already been subbed at one point, so owning a license to the game is required.Quote:

dont all houses both solo and FC both come under the same rule that if there not entered in over 36 days it deletes it self if that true then just have to wait till the person who used the free extended weekend (which was longer due to th game reaching 4 million subs) to not log back in and lose due to being inactive if this is true there no need to restrict the free log in weekend as in the end as other have said we all had a sub at one point so using the free weekend make no different to right to do stuff in the game

lol how do any of you know who renews their sub or not? This thread is full of people making assumptions. If SE wasn't gaining subs from the free campaigns they wouldn't keep doing them.
I don't see how the lack of housing has anything to do with free weekends. The only problem is lack of plots available on populated servers, not the free login campaign. -
03-13-2015, 03:44 AMOphie-MioThough they said that they were going to implement thing, so far SE has not actually done so. Hopefully they actually decide to implement it come 3.0.Quote:
