System to Automatically Relinquish Personal Housing?

[Niwashi]

Says who? My primary reason for buying my personal house was so I can go craft in peace without people running by me all the time and to avoid lag spikes which would cost me money every time my macro got messed up.

You're free to think what you believe is the purpose of having a house, but just like in real life, different people do things for different reasons..

Umm... but that was kind of my point. Tocsin tried claiming that anyone with a house should be pulling in 750k a week or more from its garden. I pointed out that there's plenty of other reasons for having a house, besides just garden profit.

(And I thought your "place to craft in peace" reason would sort of fall into the general "place to decorate and hang out at" reason I listed, or at least the "place to hang out at" part of it. I didn't mention crafting explicitly, but it wasn't really intended to be a comprehensive list.)

By your refusal to farm your garden for profit, you're just hurting yourself.. If you can do without the gil, great, I don't work my garden either. But saying that gardening was not a main motivator for you does not negate its value as a gil making method.

I never suggested it wasn't a good gil-making method, only that gil-making isn't the only reason (or even the main reason) why the game has a housing system, and that those of us who don't use it as a gil farm should still be able to keep a house.
