    As someone riding out the hurricane now, I’ve never heard of free time being given out to players effected by natural disasters in the past as it would be pretty hard to determine when to give out the time as recovery can be different for everyone, and it probably would be near impossible for se to determine which accounts were most effected. Depending on how bad it ends up being (reports say flooding will be extensive), I would appreciate a stop on housing demolition as I assume many others in the effected areas would too.

    Typically free game time is given if the company at fault for a lack of service, for example if SE's FFXIV servers were down for a week they may refund a week of game time. However SE aren't responsible for a natural disaster, so it's doubtful anyone would get refunded game time. I hope they do pause house demolition though.

    This is true. Only time I personally know of them reimbursing game time was that huge earthquake and tsunami several years ago due to it effecting SE and forcing them to shut the servers down for several weeks.
