Snip.

If for some reason I did lose my FC house I would buy another. It just isn't me in the FC atm. I have people come over to my house and hang out. Heck some even stay the night ^^.

As for personal housing no one really knows the details that I know of. Are Personal houses going to be like FFXI Mog Houses, Where everyone can get one and you only see the inside? Or are there going to be Wards that players can walk around in and see what other players have? More than likely seeing as how SE can't even handle adding more Wards, Personal Housing is going to end up being some kind of Inn room that you can add a few furnishings to. So back to your question if Personal Housing ends up being crap I'll just stick with a FC house.

Should gil be refunded to the FC? That's a slippery slope, because then all of the gil would be refunded to the FC leader, who might log in one day and find he has a couple hundred million gil sitting in his mailbox six months later. It's not like it would go to any of the officers or members that contributed to that FC.

I don't think Gil Refund would work....

I would say a refund in Gil but many FCs bought houses at the max and some at the lowest, so there would be an issue. Do you get what you paid or do you get lower? Then some would get upset if they didn't get a full refund of what they paid. And then if it was the case of a full refund of what we paid, People could abuse it. An FC who bought a large house for 89mil gets it all back and then only has to pay 59mil to buy another.... So I think extending the time or a Deed/Permit to the FC leader would be the best.

Keeping your house there while you're not paying your subscription is equally ridiculous.

One could say the same about someones character If they didn't return after 6 months....

You do realize what you describe is what personal housing is. People can visit your personal house too when they are put in game...even stay the night. And if its not just you in the FC atm then why does it matter if YOU cant log in for 35 days...can the other people not log in as well?

With all your talk of tsunamis, earthquakes, funerals and weddings preventing logging to the game I feel like you only play the game 30 seconds every 6 months and spend the rest of the time on the forums lol.

Two players are in my FC atm( 3 with my ALT), It was seven. The other Five took a break after 2.1 and four are now playing ESO. The other said he was planning on coming back when school gets out. The thing is my FC are all Family and IRL friends. We all live in the same town. When I talk of natural disasters, Its examples of what could stop someone from being unable to play. Last winter was horrible, We went almost a week without power because of a snow storm, The town I live in is small and it effected a lot of people. When I lived in Florida we had plenty of hurricanes, When hurricane Ivan hit back in 2004 my mom went over a month without power. Luckily for me I had my own place and it wasn't but a few days with out power. There are lots of things people cannot control. If someone owns a FC house and chooses not to do anything with it and they lose it then the fault is their own. The point is there are many thing that could happen to prevent someone from logging on, Even if they are willing to pay or already subbed.

A lot of people also don't understand that a lot of the small Free Companies are made up of close friends and family. I have some friends back home in Florida that are on Adamantoise and they have a small FC as well. Now I understand that if you have an FC made up of 20, 100, 200 players chances of you losing a FC house are very slim. Even for a small FC the chances are still pretty slim, but there is that chance that people who want to keep it can lose it. When you have these small group of close friends/family they like to do stuff together. Why didn't I quit playing when they left? Because I quit playing FFXI last year to play this game, So I'm going to stick it out and play. I just don't like the way SE is handling this. I don't disagree with them wanting to remove a vacant house. It should just be more friendly.

I shouldn't be in danger of losing something that I worked hard on. Just because in the future I may want to take a break for a few weeks/ months. Anyone every level a FC from half of Rank 1 to Rank 7 solo? Its not fun. But worth it in the end. And that is one reason why I will never give up my FC.
