We need another Housing purge

2: I figured it out on accident, when I was sorting my houses.

That doesn't make it not an exploit though. Especially if you continue to use it to your advantage after discovering it. Whether it is or not is an exploit is up to SE however and they haven't joined the conversation other than plucking posts out.

The limitations have been removed since. No need for a workaround. Idk why you can't understand that.

Well you did kind of plainly state that you were transferring ownership to bypass the temporary limitation at least once.

What I've stated was how I would transfer my grandfathered FC houses onto the same account to make it more manageable and as a result, figured out I had an FC house on an account that was previously freed of FC houses.

I don't know why you think I don't understand that? I was just stating that if there is an exploit, running into it by accident doesn't make it any less of an exploit and if anyone continued to use it afterwards as an advantage then it makes it that much worse. The accident doesn't excuse continued usage for anyone.

By now (before this thread existed even) SE should have been aware of it. No statement have been made against it, nothing to prevent it was added to the game. Other than preventing users from severely going at each others throats on the forum, I don't think they consider this an issue to address.

Nah, you really don't understand. Before they doubled the amount of wards, you could buy 8 FC houses per account. And you can still do. There's never been an "exploit" other than during those two weeks.

Which I fully understand was a capability before the additional wards were added. The bit after was what I was unaware of before you clarified that earlier in the thread (I had thought that to have carried on past that two week period) . Even during that two week period though, it was public knowledge even on these very forums that one could get around the restriction. Again SE did nothing to prevent it, has to my knowledge taken no action against anyone that did it and has made no statements against it being done. I'm not condoning going against the intention of the rules they set up, but SE doesn't seem to be actively against it.
