If no one access a FC house in 35 Days you lose everything! Coming Patch 2.3 ><

[Luxx]

well now i feel for the smaller fc's homes..so i'd say we bump it a 60-90 days then, for all homes.
i also can see a group of friends huddling to another game for a while and leave this one for a bit.
if none of u can log in by then in 60-90, then i can see it taking the boot. sorry, i would think
the life outside this game is far more important for u not to be able to log, or found a more fun game
or taking a bit of a hiatus just coz.
i guess cough up the $10 - $15 if you worry alot for it.
i can only agree with the OP here and with others the time is too short...also there is tons of spots open.
i have like 3 neighbors in the small fc area lmao. idk why they need severs space?

Its ok if SE doesn't do anything about it. But when they do it to Personal Housing, There will be a lot more pissed off people than the few in this thread.

yea if it's personal housing thats a huge ass problem and a half. sorry.
it's more of a problem because it's a solo ordeal. i hope they don't do this there.
who knows what the pricing will be or time limit. i'm iffy on the FC housing only coz there's more ppl invovled and only 1
of them has to log in.

just expand the days and ppl should be fine. so far se hasn't been handeling house 100% correctly
so ima prepare myself for disappointment XDDD

I really dislike this idea, but so long as it stays FC housing and not personal housing, I'll tolerate it. It's not something I think is great and I'd really prefer a longer period of time on this if they must do it, though.

This is the same fuss people threw up about FC leadership being passed when someone is away for an extended period of time.

The FC system is not designed for groups so small where it's conceivable that every single member will suddenly decide they're taking 2+ months off from the game.

It's designed for large groups where it's assumed that if not even a single person can step inside a property for a single second over an entire month then the group is dead as a doornail.

Looks guys. It's simple. People have presented valid arguments showing that small FCs might be negatively affected by the short amount of time that SE mentioned. A valid suggestion has been to up the time to 90 days since that coincides with major content patches, and is a more reasonable amount of time considering we're talking about taking a large in-game investment from people. Any valid counter-argument against it being 90 days instead? No one has presented a single one yet, and it would negatively affect less people that way than the current plan. There is absolutely no reason to not support the people that could be boned by the current plan other than you simple have no empathy. Which makes you kind of a dbag.

90 days is a bit much. If you base it between content patches anyone knows users spike at each patch so in essence the truly loyal are left out in the dark without a chance at a home in the worst case scenario.

There isn't a finite amount of houses, since SE can (and should) just add more wards.

Well I hate to tell you this but there are 47,324 Small Free Companies that might disagree with you.... http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...nt=1-10&order=

If SE didn't want people to have Small Free Companies then why does it only take 3 players to start one and not 30?

Well you got one thing right. Most players who do take breaks return when a major patch is about to happen. Hence why 90 days would be plenty enough time. As for the "loyal" left in the dark, No they aren't. Again you people really think that taking someones house is actually going to fix the real issue. WE need more Wards.

[Diadumenos]

I can see both sides on this but 35 days seems a tad short for them to jump right to utter razing the house to the ground and SE reclaiming the property. Groups take breaks from this game all the time. Maybe because they got burned out from raising the capital for the house?!

Is it just me or is $E pulling off some really #&*@ moves lately?

How many of those 47324 free companies have houses? Hell, how many of them are even still active? If you took long enough to scroll down a bit you'd see a whole bunch of them have exactly one member, likely a leader that disappeared without breaking the FC and left everyone else to move on to a new group.

35 is over a month - to my knowledge anyway. If no one in your FC plays for over a month or visit and utilize it even once a month, it's a waste and exactly why SE is clearing out unused properties/lots.

No one gets 'boned", not big nor small FC - The only ones who "do" are the ones who don't use it beyond a status symbol. FC Houses, at least small, are in the 1-2 million or less range currently, one person could even pay for it if they're actually making gil, so "large investments lost" isn't anything, you don't already get your gil back and if you're not using the FC...

...You kind of thrown away your investment as is, so what's the difference?
