Servers up no houses demolished yet

At the very least, I believe (as in didn't read or hear it myself directly from the letter) it was stated in the live letter that additional plots (not Ishgard) will be added to wards so those of us camping vultures as someone phrased it oh so beautifully will still have a chance at plots in the future.

I also want to be that guy who whines about personal housing versus FC housing. I mean come on... it's like removing the HoV lane. Personal housing should have been something entirely separate from FC housing, I mean a bunch of players who have their personal house are also in an FC!

Well, I'm one of those players. However I desire my own space to "live" and decorate. Not to mention invite my own friends to.
Call me greedy but I am planning to turn it into a nice looking hangout spot for me and my friends.

No way it's not greedy, it's cool. I like the concept of personal housing. I personally wouldn't ever use it, but it's great for players like you (which there are many of, obvs.) But FC and personal houses I don't believe should be in the same instance. Consider, there are only 480 houses on one server, yet 100,000 characters on a number of the servers. Simply put, there aren't nearly enough houses to go around. Which all of us are currently experiencing.

Edit sortof: each house would have to house 208 characters in order for every character to have a house.

Only that there is no indoor garden, yet

This would be amazing. Or a small outdoor space with the personal chambers? The ability to place items on mansion balconies, or even use that door up there?

Almost exactly my situation except my body was in rush a rush I couldn't even freaking sleep at all. This is not good for my health. I already tried going to bed early but I just couldn't calm down and even after two hours of laying down keeping my eyes shut and trying to be comfortable... I just couldn't sleep.

Right? We should post this BS to https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep, because god knows it's the stuff of nightmares! I haven't had a decent nights sleep in over two weeks solely due to this crap. Once someone collapses from exhaustion (it's happened before due to MMOs) SE might take notice. Except they won't.

This is basically my last hope if I fail to get a plot today/tomorrow (it's gonna be tomorrow but I daren't risk grabbing a nap/coffee, heaven forbid!).

Agreed. These wards should solely be for FC's in my opinion and housing should have been instanced from the get-go. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few and all that. Being left with no choice at the moment though, I'm currently opting to camp a plot.

That person might become me, sadly. I have a Christmas dinner coming up and I'm at 24 hours no sleep while being anxious about this thing for the whole week already. While I don't play for long, I have longed for a house since I earned my first mil. When I had enough, houses were already gone and now I've gotten enough for a Medium. Thing is, I doubt people would let any open plot sit and I really don't want to wait 6 more months.

They once were. I believe it was patch 2.2 which implemented personal housing.

They originally had said I believe was in a live letter long time ago, was before personal housing was released of course, stating that FC housing and Personal housing would be separate. But I guess they decided not to do it due to server expenses or something along those lines. Can't remember which live letter or whatever source that came from when Yoshi said it, but I remember them talking about it.

It was around 2.2. But hey they made a crap load of money from the 3.0 mass transfers, just buy bigger servers to make more houses!

If only they would, and increase the amount of items you can place in houses too while they're at it. :P I just wish there had been more information given to people other than just the people who were losing their houses. Would have been nice at least for people on higher population servers to attempt to get sleep/eat/bathe/etc. without feeling as if they're going to lose their chance at getting a house.
