Adressing the roots of the housing problem

[TThibi]

I am just the humble owner of a single small house, I was very pleased to discover after the swimming was added my house is now waterfront property in Goblet and that water is an enormous hot tub!! Still i'm planning to move to Lavender when 4.2 goes live. Hopefully I can get waterfront there as well. In reference to previous players assertations that surely SE wouldn't force players to give up extra homesites, and would rather grandfather them in. I have to say this in response SE CANNOT AFFORD TO ENTERTAIN THESE PEOPLE, the reason for this is the most aggregious offenders across the worlds some of whom have been mentioned here and in other threads. A whole housing ward to 1 couple 16 houses to each of them. SE has to slap them down ferociously to prove to the playerbase they are serious.

I personally believe the day 4.2 goes live and patch is live the first screen these hoarders will see upon login is Please choose the house you wish to keep, upon choosing one all others are demolished 1/3 of house value awarded to each character and all furnishings may be retrieved from npc at your convienience. Don't like it? tough, locking up limited land space to coddle a micro population is inexcusable. Yes please let my alts use my house, omg please add a workshop to personal houses, dammit let my alts make a personal room in my house Awesome!! Anything that builds up the furnishing market is excellent put it in game sign my name to it.

Taking the 2 people example into account SE can smash their housing hoard, 2 people may leave the game $30 a month may leave the game. In exchange 30-32 houses 1/2 of which being FC Only plots potentially please hundreds of other players, there is no loss and only benefit to crushing the greedy.
