We need another Housing purge

[Lambdafish]

I think we need to let this thread die. OliverB has clearly shown the cracks in the housing system, whether it's against the ToS or not. The behaviour here on a community level is unacceptable, and the developers need to really tighten up the rules on house ownership and maybe adjust other things such as apartments and tenant systems to compensate.

Either way, continuing the thread will only encourage what is turning into a really sad power trip.

Agreed. Actually getting tired of seeing posts from Oliver gloating about how she's abusing the system and owning 22 houses. Against ToS or not, it toxic behavior and it sick that SE even allows this to just slip through even though countless times now she's admitted to buying houses and the likes. Grandfathered in or not, when a player admitting they did shit against the ToS now or even in the past, they should be punished.

It all good. SE, keep on turning your backs on the honest player base and allowing toxic players like this bring down the community.
Hopefully at some point another game company will step up and make a better MMO where it system ain't pure crap and cater to toxic players. That will be the day (if not sooner) that SE loses my money. They can take my house away and put it where the sun don't shine.

What if I told you, that another mmo, also made by SE, already did? No its not FFXI. In that mmo, which is still Japan and China only, whenever a housing ward fills up, a new ward is automatically created afterwards, and its set to where it is one house per player account, the house is shared between all characters on the same account, and the house you own can give full permissions to as many players as you like or even the entire guild your in to move add and remove furniture? And the wards have a auto purge timer so that if all the homes in a ward are empty, it will delete the whole ward, if it only has a few homes taken for so long, it will merge to another ward automatically that has those same few homes still available in that ward. Then deletes the empty ward.

Yes, SE learned the huge mistake they did in XIV, and placed in this better, automated system they did for that other mmo......id speak its name but the Mods for whatever reason, dont like it talked about.

Believe it when I see it.

My guess is Dragon Quest X as that came out after ARR. I'm not familiar with it though, so can't speak to any details. I've never noticed mods caring about comparing other games, so no need to be secretive.

If that the case, I really wonder now if that survey they had up some weeks ago asked the question, "Would you play another Final Fantasy MMO (not XIV)?" is already in the plans to make another and see if people after dealing with XIV would take interest in trying another. To which answered honestly, I'd give it chance if I saw a huge improvement from XIV.
