Hurray! Finally saved up 6mil for my personal house!

On Balmung they once sold out within 15 minutes of being added. Money was not the issue. Availability was. You're making assumptions.

The thread title specifically says that they just saved up the 6mil, though.

Gil was definitely an issue for them.

No more small house, my neighbourhood is empty. Full of small house, nobody buy the medium house in front of me and the large house at one side near my large one :/

I see people around my FC house pretty frequently. My personal house too. I usually sit down at the market board and craft; there's several people that do the same thing. Sometimes we sit and talk. ^^

Seems you missed the point. Having the money was irrelevant since there wasn't even a house available. You can have caped gil and it doesn't mean anything if you aren't online the moment the servers come up after new housing is added. Seeing as the OP was on Balmung, and I specifically was commenting on the state of housing on Balmung, the user if they had done their research would have known well ahead of time that the only way to get a house would be to prepare themselves for the next wave of additional housing. Chances are they were saving this money up for weeks and the whole time there was never even 1 plot available to them.

Also, since you want to go back to what the OP posted. He also said this.

For me, money was NEVER the issue, availability was.

So what was it about the money again?

You should've expected this on a populated server. You know, that more people are playing.

I believe you confused my comment to you as a complaint. It wasn't. I was just pointing out that you were incorrect in your assumption about the state of housing especially as it pertains to Balmung. I'm well aware that I'll never have personal housing until something about the system is changed and have zero hopes or aspirations to have one because of it. Until that time they change the system to make it more available I'm hoping for improved guild house personal rooms.

Those assumptions.
