Only 1536 apartments per server?

[MihaelB]

I'm in a great FC, and guess what?
We don't have a house since there hasn't been an open plot for us to buy on Lamia in months.

Apartments were our latest chance at housing...

Find this hilarious as Lamia had a month of available plots after the last housing update when other servers were gone in the first hour

Don't know how many 'months' it has been since the update but sounds like you just missed out on the timing.

I don't get what so hard about that?!?!

Not that there is anything hard about it, but FC leaders can be unstable/rude/whatever too. FC rooms are truly at the whim of the leader. One day things are fine, the next, you have no personal space. It's not as uncommon as you may think, tons of topics have been made about things like this happening.

What I don't get is how gamer now a day can be so lazy about being social in a Online game. This is what I miss about EQ and FFXI.... Almost never have that crap happin -_-'

Get to know the leader then, stop playing a MMO just to never talk to ppl and be antisocial O.o You be better off playing a solo RPG then...

...Reading is hard, I guess.

If you can't see my point your just as bad. Just Bc there are no open houses, dose not mean there are NO HOUES for sell... You can still buy one.. -_- there are other ways. >_>

It's not about anyone being lazy or antisocial, it's the fact that you are just simply at the whim of someone else. Spoiler alert: some people hide their crazy very well. I'm not saying every FC leader is out to get people but yeah, becoming truly a victim to someone's whim/power (logical or erratic) is very possible. Especially in an MMO.

If you can't see my point your just as slow, just BC there no open house, dose not mean there ARE no house for sell... You can still buy one.. -_-

Which, in most cases, goes against the ToS and people start getting in trouble.

That's all assuming the leaders are the only one with those permissions. All it takes is one bad apple with the wrong permissions to wreck the place.

And your making my point, if that how ppl think.. Then this is how they will make other feel and think ..and down hill we go. If you assume someone is bad or can't be trusted all the time your just being paranoid all the time over agame O.o

And yes true, but what's stoping players? You see it all the time on many server, even more so the bigger one with fewer house to go around.

This game is not worth being paranoid over. The whole point I'm trying to make is that you are putting the sole blame on a certain group of people, and I'm trying to point out, that since this is a social game (which you seem to understand), that things go both ways. You can't just point the finger of blame and tell people they are lazy and antisocial when they feel wronged when the reality of it is, when it comes to FC rooms, you don't have the same security as you would by owning your own house or apartment. People shouldn't have to settle for relying on someone else to have their own space in the game.

At this point in time I almost never see property being advertised to be sold on Siren. So I'm assuming at some point that enough people got in trouble that most think "Eh, I probably shouldn't risk selling this house now." But then again, we never had a huge house flipping issue to begin with, most people who bought houses even when they were new actually used them.

I'm not pointing my finger at any one group, I'm doing it to all gamers. FFXIV is turning US as ONLINE gamers in to antisocial ppl that get paranoid over the most dam crap now a days. It so rare to find a big guild out that can 100% work together! (Like in the EQ and FFXI day 300+ member online working together to do something)

I point out that there are many ways to do something and ppl get mad Bc they have to get to know other or talk to ppl in MMO to do it... Umm what the point in playing a MMO if your just going to .. Umm ya be antisocial! Again my point O.o I'm not saying my way is right 100% but making the game more or less.. Less social won't fix it or us as a online community.

Look I'm old/ old school and in the end I miss the day of online gaming were the the community came together to have fun and work to better them self at the job/class, but now a day it all solo this or free that.. Or it to hard Bc I can't 1man a endgame boss..

I still love FFXIV and will continue to play it with my wife and friends for years to come, just said to see so many game go down this road just Bc the new gen of gamers can't work together.

I don't really get what's so "anti-social" about not wanting someone else to demolish your 300k investment just because they had a wild hair and felt like it.

It would be like buying a condo only to be told that you were actually just renting it the whole time and now the building owner is kicking you out because he doesn't like that you don't say "hi" to him every time you pass him on the stairwell.

What was the point of your nonsensical walls of non-sequiturs about the "EQ days", anyway? If you had a point you failed utterly at making it.
