    You know that they just get a warning, or if they'd been warned before a suspension, right? The GMs don't reverse transactions and take away houses. You might scare people who get caught from doing the same thing again but no plots will be freed up.

    Not only that, but less houses will be available to buy, since the owners will hold onto them longer for a more discrete transaction.

    Pretty much this.....people have it in their heads that by stopping the plot selling, that they will somehow have a chance at a house. You have a better chance at buying a house if you give in to the sellers...as crappy as that is...but if you make it so they won't want to sell it, they will likely sit on it. They aren't going to be like "Oh my plan has been foiled....I guess I'll give up this plot for free and move on!" Trust me...If I owned a plot with intent to sell, and I could no longer profit off of it, I'm going to sit on it and make some kind of use out of it.

    I have already a house and will still report everyone who sell plot abandonment

    The more reports they get, the larger the issue becomes and the more likely a definitive response from SE is. Personally, the sour grapes crowd who are saying that if they were sitting on a plot they could no longer resell, they'd make some use out of it are just crying in their beer. To them I say, "Man up, relinquish the plot, admit that your gaming of the system isn't on and move on".

    I'm not even complaining...i'm just saying. You're unlikely to get anyone to relinquish their house at a loss.

    Why? What are they going to do with the additional gil? Count it? Seriously, it's time SE took this issue on, head on, and dealt with it.

    Why? Because they already spent the gil on the house. in the millions of gil.....Nobody is going to surrender that like you want them to. Nobody just spends that much gil on a house and just throws it away by giving up the plot. Unless they were very charitable...and if they were, they wouldn't have bought the house to flip it in the first place. You have too much faith in them to think they'd eat the loss like that.

    Oh, that's the sour grapes crowd... I thought it was someone else in the scenario, and specifically this thread.
