Please give alts on the same service account access to the same personal house.

I'd suggest you guys to follow that guide before they fix the hotfixes.

Kind of a shame you can't have all 8 alts share one plot and is limited to 3. (That needs to be fixed and increased BTW)

and allow plot tenants to refresh plots too.

A) What guide?

B) If it's that nonsense with 2 computers or else using the task manager to end the game and log in on a different character, neither worked for me, at all. Character was always logged out, so I think it was already fixed with the thing about logging in on a second client will boot the character from in game. Which is a shame, because I'd love to be able to mail myself stuff. It's quite annoying to have to use my BF's character to hand everything off. Double the work.

The key seems to be the timing on when to use the task manager. It needs to be while the teleport is casting but before it goes off.

Yeah, I did it as soon as I started the teleport, before I started the teleport and about a second or two after I started the teleport. Every time, my character was logged out. Though I did have to wonder if this is one of those times when having good internet and the game on a SSD is working against me.

That's unfortunate. I can confirm that it wasn't fixed with the thing about logging in on a second client. When you kill the game mid-teleport it leaves the character in a sort of limbo on the way to their destination. Logging in that character will place them at their destination, but until they log in, the game stores them as online at their original location, probably to preserve the integrity of the teleport. Maybe your character is updating too quickly, as you suspect.

Teleport to another zone, no inter-housing ward transfers.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...gk&sh=9d2d91ba is a post that may give you more suggestions.

I think the SSD is loading the zone too fast for you to take advantage of this bug. Another poster with an SSD was also having the same issue.

I have only one question - will SE take some action against players who exploited this bug or not...

This is not exactly a game breaking glitch and it doesn't give any particular advantage (other than easier inventory management), so I doubt it very much.

While i agree with you and i agree even more that char. on the same server should share a house this still sounds like exploit. English is my second foreign language so i will quote wiki:

In video games, an exploit is the use of a bug or glitches, game system, rates, hit boxes, or speed, etc. by a player to their advantage in a manner not intended by the game's designers.

Maybe i'm wrong so free to correct me. The only way i see SE closing one eye is if they intend to enable such feature in near future otherwise i'm little afraid for my account safety... or if too many people take the advantage then it would be a PR nightmare to punish all those players.

SE have turned a blind eye to harmless glitches like this in the past. There's a thread in this housing forum regarding how to make use of placement glitches to put items in places where SE did not intend. Additionally, at one point there was another method to add alts to your friends list that SE obviously also did not intend. They patched that particular glitch but did not punish any players who made use of it. It's up to you if you want to use this method or not; if SE is really not happy with it, they'll likely patch it up in the future. I personally don't see the harm in this, but that's just my opinion.
