Restrict Personal Houses to 1 Per Server!

They cannot do this, you have to see this guys. For the same reason devs try not to nerf classes but rather buff them up to par with other classes. It is a terrible design and financial strategy to take things away from the people giving you money. And this is a bit different from you didn't have a house, they added more, you still didn't get one. These are legitimate players who probably worked hard in order to purchase additional houses because they enjoy it. Then you suddenly rip away all the time the took farming that gil, leveling that character, and completing MSQ etc.

It hurts just as many people as it helps. Instead of punishing players retroactively because SE failed to vet this system, another housing solution has to be looked at. You see all these people screaming about leaving the game because they couldn't get a house, what do you think will happen to honest players who have their alts houses ripped away from them or do you just not care because you might have a 2% chance of getting a house? And what happens when the revoke those houses and you STILL dont get a house? We are back at square one again.

It's time to think big picture guys, not just some off the cuff reactionary fix that will help a very small portion of the server get a house and probably drive away just as many from the game and probably just really bad financial choice. I'm willing to wager more people would quit the game because their houses were taken away than would leave because they were unable to get a house on patch day.

Add instanced housing, I saw someone else mention it would almost be like the pirates floating island fortress in the Void Ark series. Teleport or talk to an NPC to move to your own or FCs instanced plot, you can open it to other players or invite friends to be able to enter it. It would have an exterior and interior only in this case you wouldn't click on the houses door to enter it, it would just open since its part of the same instance the exterior is. They are available in Small, Medium, and Large. Have an additional perk where you can use whatever housing materials you want on them and not be ward restricted. Use the relocation feature to enable the ability to move your house from your instance to wards if you have an available plot.

I believe that is a much more equitable solution than 'That guy has more than me, give me one of his'.
