Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Enkidoh]

I'm pretty certain that the development team were asked that in the past and they responded along the lines of is that it's to help stabilize the servers and cut down on the amount of processing the server has to do, and that although it could theoretically be changed, they don't want to do anything that would jeopardize the servers (it was in a past 'Letter From the Producer LIVE' Q@A if I remember rightly). I'll try and find it and post the development team's response here.

EDIT: I found it - it was found here (towards the very bottom of the page):

Q: When logging out in private chambers, upon logging in again we are placed outside of houses. Could you make it like inns so that we log back into our rooms?
A: Komoto: I understand that since implementation we've been receiving a lot of feedback about this, but this is an issue that is actually quite deep and we are not able to address it right away at the moment. Inns, similar to instanced dungeons, have been made so they are set to standby where no resources are consumed when players are not present. For houses as well the programmers were able to work on it so they do not consume resources either when players are not present, but as a result of this, when logging back into the game the room resources do not exist, so there is a difficult issue about how to make it so you can log back in to your rooms.

So yeah, sadly it doesn't look like this is going to be changed any time soon, if at all, as much as I would love that to be the case.
