You can think it's fair to say, and you'd likely be wrong. Your random aspersions to numbers of people who "agree that one person..." etc? Yeah, that's pulled out of a place that's best not discussed in polite company. The reason you would need to create an alt is so you have to actually put effort into getting the houses. You know, since a level 1 character can't just buy a house, you have to hit a level cap to do it. So that way, people can't JUST transfer money to a level 1 account and pounce on housing for flipping and the like.

Not an oversight, IMO.

I used 'just a video game' as a counter to the point of it just being a video game, and how people shouldn't take it seriously. The big deal is that you're asking people to give up a lot of time and effort that was put into acquisition. You're literally asking to take time from these people for no cost to you. It is just a video game, which means whatever we deem as important to ourselves is what's true. They found it important to get that many houses, they put in the effort when others refused to for whatever reason, so they get to keep those houses until SE changes the rules.

I still fully expect SE to do nothing about the system - they haven't for years now with house flipping, etc. My guess is they will let it go for a while, because as soon as 4.1 hits and the Kugane housing is released, all the people whining about it now will have housing, and then goes the rounds of "got mine lol." People only care when it inconveniences them.
