[GM] Please take notice. Make statement on housing.

With gil, it's ok(I'm still around). RMT thou, yea prepare for that hammer. There is nothing wrong with selling houses. Would you rather people keep them and not use them? If they want too much don't buy. Simple as that. Also can't really call people greedy unless u never lot on stuff. Very self interested is the better term.

Their policies may have changed in light of the disturbance this is causing the players of the game.

That is why I believe they've enacted 3.2 of the ToS.

It is also bo surprise, as someone else has stated, that the EU GMs may not have received or adapted the same change in policy as JP or NA datacenters.

This is what I'm thinking. It may have been something technically against the rules that they've been willing to overlook in the past, but right now it's at the forefront because of the reclamation and it's upsetting so many people that they're having to act on it.

Have a friend that got a 1 week ban for selling 4 houses and making a post on the forums about selling the houses, I will try to get a screen shot of the e-mail he received so people will know what it falls under.

When did he get banned? Did he get banned today from game and these forums after or before you tried to contact the support desk yesterday?

April 2nd 2015, from the forums and the game for 7 days, 1 of the 4 houses he was selling was a FC house. All 4 were small houses and he was selling each house for 10mil.

I see thank you! What was your friend's response etc? Do you think he has copies of everything (like chat in-game) or did he just keep the email? First temporary ban I've read about dealing with this matter.

Since auto-demoltion allows players to get some of their gil back from a house, maybe the GMs will come out and bluntly say if house selling is against the rules or not. And if they do confirm it's against the rules, perhaps they will be more consistent with bans, if this story about a ban is true.

House selling has never been a big deal to me. However I can understand how it's not good for the community, especially now with inactive housing having a demolition timer. Every time one comes up you bet your booty it'll be bought and resold.

I hope SE will do something about how hard it is to get a house in super populated servers like gilgamesh. Banning or warning those people does absolutely nothing to resolve this problem. It just scares those players into not doing that thing anymore. there's more where they come from and just because players are no longer allowed to publicly sell, there will always be players willing to buy.

I did not get a house because there were people buying up houses on alts, but I also don't believe I would have gotten one if those people did NOT buy up houses on alts with the intention to resell/trade.

He did get an e-mail that contained the thread he made that got deleted but I think he's hesitant about revealing sensitive information. I will try to find out what ToS he breached
