    I believe it was more of a "don't ask don't tell" system, but with the housing situation as it is you have players effectively holding a feature of the game for ransom. This directly goes against the part of the EULA about "negatively affecting a player's experience..." Creating an artificial embargo where you can demand a ransom for a feature in the game is absolutely, unequivocally a bad thing to do especially since you are selling an asset held by the server, not something you crafted out of materials or can be directly sold back to the server. Sympathy for taking advantage of people isn't a thing. You purchased a house from the game, for whatever price, and can retrieve that Gil back through not using it. The refund option if it were immediately available would just the same be abused by people to double-dip by both reclaiming the Gil they paid the server for the plot and then still collecting ransom from a player who wants to use the feature. By effectively doubling, tripling, quadrupling the price of this in game feature, how do you not see the harm you are causing another player's experience. You paid 2.5 million Gil for a small plot, but think another player should have to pay three times that to use the same thing you paid far less for? That's far from fair, and if you can't understand that then you're quite obviously mistaken. There's a giant warning about losing the housing item you place before you do so, you accept that consequence by placing it so complaints about that should be completely ignored.
