Reclamation of Inactive Housing announced

[Alexander_Dragonfang]

Whinners whined enough for a fast solution, SE already has one for them. No solution at all and a justification to never actually come up with a solution.
These changes change nothing. Housing will still be a problem for the many and the whinners now will have a small chance of running for soon-to-be abandoned houses, leaving things... Almost identical as they are now.

But for house owners, these changes mean, literally, none of us can take a break from the game, be it voluntary or accidental, we are now, forced to log in to keep "our progress" (for those of us who consider housing elemental part of our experience and progression) if we don`t we lose it. And thats one hell of a bad way to implement things if you are, instead of solving things, forcing them into your players base.

Well, thanks SE forums, you made it, now you have no housing solution and you have utterly screwed house owners who now, aren`t allowed to be away from the game. /gg

are you seriously blaming the players for bad game design? This is squarely on SE - they should be ponying up dedicated housing servers and adding wards while having a much more lenient reclaim policy (yes, reclaim still needs to exist but the timer is too short imo as I have said previously.)

In a part yes. Many are still cheering at this "solution". Encouraging SE in his way of "solving" things. Now SE has come up with a solution, and a considerable part of the playerbase so thinks so and is happy about it (wonder if they will still be happy when they realize housing will never be able for them just like now) and if anything happens, SE can "wash their hands" and say, without being mistaken about it: "We did what you asked".

So yeah, im blaming, in part, a noticable part of the playerbase for this.
