So an FC on midgardsormer bought 60 plots...

What's the difference between players who happen to be in the same FC owning individual houses in a ward vs random people owning individual houses in a ward? Are you trying to tell me that simply being associated with an FC should preclude you from owning personal housing? Now I've heard it all...

The issue is not ownership, it's availability. Let me make one thing perfectly clear, I do not personally GAF about housing. I bought a room in the FC (twice) that I never use. We have a mansion I'm never at. I do not participate in FC crafting or anything. It's there for people that want it and that's fine with me. I'll help if someone needs help but it's not my thing. I don't care.

That doesn't mean I can't look at a problem and speculate about what makes it worse/what can make it better. So, I stand by my position that new housing wards should be prioritized so that FC's have the first shot at them. FC housing is simply more important than individual housing. Once the dust settles, they can expand the server space or open up new wards, whatever, to accommodate for personal housing. Even something as sensible as "Wards 1-6 for FC, wards 7-12 for personal" would've been better than this mess.

This is not at all what it appeared as though you were saying.

I mean..

There should've been FC housing first, then personal housing added later like the other residential districts.

They shouldn't be fighting for the same plots, no.

Then you pulled this out of thin air:

Seems to me that this boils down to "I didn't get a plot, it's not fair that THEY did!"

When I didn't say anything at all about whether I got a plot or didn't.

I get it, people are tired of looking at the same scenery they've been looking at for 3 years. People want to live in the shiny new houses instead of the old run-down ones. People want to live next to the beach instead of in a forest or desert. That's all understandable. The Devs should've taken this into consideration and worked to mitigate as much as they could. Maybe they did and it could've been worse. Or maybe they saw the potential problem and just said "Eff it". Who knows. People are going to do whatever is in their power to do, so I'm not necessarily blaming them, I'm squarely blaming the devs for *seemingly* not giving a shit lol
