Housing system: Land race

[moggy]

but going an entire patch cycle without one and knowing a lot of people are still getting shafted over it is annoying to say the least.

That's probably the most upsetting thing. It's not about the cost, because people should get what they work hard for - but the patch dropped at, what, 8AM PST? By 4PM PST, every single small lot with the exception of two or three in The Goblet was gone. What about the people who, in the window from 8AM-4PM, were just getting home from work? Or the people who enjoy sleeping in? Waiting a whole other one or two months for a next housing cycle is just exhausting.

I understand that Balmung is a legacy server and is likely to be more populated. But if you have some servers with this surplus of untouched land and other servers with people left waiting a whole other patch cycle - because they had to work or take their dog for a walk or whatever life brings us in the span of a few hours - that should be addressed.
