Free login campaign for the whole of December! Yay!

[AskaRay]

Holy Shit, the people in this thread...Salty as fuck and some of you really should be ashamed.

Yes this free Log in will provide " Incentive " to return to the game, Incentive that some will take...but not everyone who is inactive will Pop in. Some will (Hey, Free chance to check out 3.0/3.1 and see if this game redeemed itself), but there's no saying if those who will are individuals with a house. Some probably still dont know about the reclamation (even with the near end notifications SE Sends out) or even the freaking free days itself, and if they have been gone for awhile to the point where their homes are about to be reclaimed, chances are they probably wont be returning for a good minute beyond the Timer.

This doesn't Provide the opportunity for them to return...They always freaking could/can return even without the free log in. Its a good Time to Possibly bring in some new and possibly old Blood and I can't Knock SE for that. It's December, nearing break time for many as well as a Holiday and so it's a great time.

This is thread reminds me of my Void Ark run Yesterday. Immediately upon entering, the other Healer actually said " Goddamn it! another Healer without the Chest ". Already started out Salty (He/She probably was a good cool person outside of this situation). I figured that they must have ran VA alot trying to get the chest, so I had in mind to let them get it if it dropped since I was mainly there to get the upgrade Item. Sadly enough I didnt tell them this otherwise shit probably wouldnt have gotten soured later. Some ways into it, they actually tried to Vote Kick me as indicated by one of the other members when it didnt go through. The Possibility of competing with the roll if it dropped, and possibly having to wait longer actually made them that Salty. The Robe dropped and I won it, with them telling me to Burn in hell. After that Attempted Vote Kick, there was no way in hell I could feel sympathy.

Most people here in this thread are probably really cool people too, but goddamn.

Yeah I just wanted to quote this whole thing because seriously guys
Did SE mess up on housing? Oh, yeah
Is the reclamation a temp bandaid? Yes
Does more need to be done? Of course

No reason to act this way, guys. Holy cow.

How, pray tell, is one suposed to act when they haven't been able to get something that should have been more accessable, for years, through no fault of gil?

I don't know, maybe in that huge housing complaint thread or the housing subforum or any of those other avenues instead of going "man I really wish all those old players didn't come back to repopluate the game".

This affects housing availability, too. You know, which people were looking foward to getting? Even the slightest chance will have people looking to try and get in, so the chance of taking that chance away will of course piss people off.

So no, its not "go argue over there", when it is this subject that is going to have people wait even longer for a chance at buying.

This issue people have is a large number of those players who do come back to reclaim their houses won't actually stick around. Typically speaking, the likelihood of someone growing bored with anything, only to suddenly be reinvigorated are slim. I doubt any will be necessarily malicious, but with Fall Out 4, Metal Gear Solid 5 and other games that likely grabbed their attention. Chances are they won't re-sub, or if they do, it will be for a short while before bailing again. All SE has to do is either time this after December 25th (or even during) or require a subscription in order to reset the demolish timer. Instead, this wrecks of the devs simply being shortsighted.

People aren't pissed over the event, but the fact housing has been an ongoing problem and the one step they take to remedy it may be ruined. When you've been an active sub, that gets understandably frustrating. Think of it another way. We all here pay $15+ a month and many can't afford housing. This campaign allows someone to hop on, play for a while and keep their house even if they have no intention of coming back.

Can't entirely blame the saltiness.
