    Terrible comparison. A zeta is not finite and everyone can access it regardless of how many people has it. Housing on the other hand, is limited.

    I'm putting this into the perspective of what if they took something very valuable to you for which you worked very very hard if for some reason you don't/can't resub every single month and need a break. How would you feel having something like your zeta taken away like that?

    I think the 45 day timer is a bit short. Personally for me at least 60 days would be a bit more reasonable but be that as it may, there are tons of houses just sitting idle where people have left the game. Those homes need to be reallocated to users who will actually use them. This hopefully is only part one and that there will be additional wards and housing areas made available for those who want them.

    Still not comparable. There are not only 1440 Zeta per Server and a weapon is not hogging server recources which makes it that exlusive. And if even if they took them away - pff let them, its only a skin ourdays - housing has actual benefits that most people cant enjoy due to people not caring/giving a shit about others

    And it's a terrible comparison like I said. The effect is there (maybe), but the circumstances are not. Having my "Zeta taken away" is not the same as "having my zeta taken away so other people can use it". The former has absolutely no justification, and is literally just copping out your progression just cause. The latter (and then I'd question why do we have limited gear/character progression availability) is needed in an MMO setting if things become scarce, yet inactive players can hold onto it indefinitely.

    Apples and Oranges darling.
    Zetas don't take away resources from people who could utilize them better.

    UGH... PEOPLE, I'm not making a comparison about availability but about ownership and achievement. I'm starting to wonder if any of you actually owns a house because you clearly seem to have no idea what's it like to own a house and to now feel it's been taken hostage and that you'll lose it if at any point you skip a month.

    The reason why Plots need to be emptied is because of availability, so your comparison is completely useless.

    News Flash. I do own a house. And it's also because of that (and the circumstances of acquiring it) is that it's pretty damn scarce. My realm also has at least 20 or so plots occupied by people in the same FC who don't even play the game anymore.

    The problem is again, the circumstances between your comparison are different. There's absolutely no reason for them to take away our zeta other than to be spiteful (in your example) to be compariable to housing being taken away (which is because of limited availability). If you really want an answer to your question, then honestly I'd be pissed off because my zeta is being taken away for no justifiable reason that it helps improve the experience for other players or otherwise make it available to them because I'm not online. That is not true for housing because hten it is made available to other players who are currently playing the game, instead of me who can't even get a day to just log in and go into my house.

    Based on your reactions so far, I'd assume you are one of those players who own a personal house and it's yours and only yours. To top this off, you want to not pay for a sub for a while because you're bored. If that is the case, I would still say I think you should give it up. You aren't using it and it's a very scarce commodity. If you are that worried, sell it and get someone on your friends list (or FC) to get the permit. Only ONE person needs to enter for you to keep your house. If you own an entire house for yourself and have an FC house, I'd say to any player, that's a tad greedy when there is limited space. You can buy a personal room if you REALLY want your own space. Especially if you're not even using it once a month.
