Housing is likely one of the most resource-intensive parts of this game and yet a large part of it isn't used by active players. That is simply wrong, and they're trying to fix that.
With the old system, all the houses were bought up. With the new system about 2% of active players can have houses and all the houses will still be bought up. That is a very slight improvement. It's kind of weird to think 98% of the active players should support a fix that isn't going to help them.
