Forcing players to pay to keep housing is unfair.

You have a house and agree with the system because you know you won't be taking a break anytime soon; so your house(s) aren't in jeopardy. I am absolutely positive that if you wanted to take a break from the game you'd do everything in your power to prevent them from falling into reclamation instead of sitting quietly.

No I wouldn't I lost my house and FC when I was on Sargantanas please don't assume. I also left the game for a year and a half due to personal reasons. Only thing I would do different is actually tell friends that the house will be available in 45 days. I also gave away all my gil and items to friends. As I knew I could make it all back if I were to return.
