Hoarding Houses - Sometimes a Depressing Sight (a rant)

[Themarvin]

You've played a game for 5 years, bought multiple houses at these prices, and now because there are more people playing than SE thought would want to play you should have to give up something you worked really hard for? How is it fair to take something away from a player that they have had for years because more people started playing the game? Especially when there are servers like Zalera, Goblin, Brynhildr, & Coeurl that have tons of empty plots available? While this might not change your mind, I hope that it might give you something to think about, and maybe give you a bit of empathy for some of the people on the other side. And the User Agreement we all agreed to when starting the game has not been changed at all since August 24, 2013. I would hazard to guess that while you're correct that SE can change it at any point, they aren't going to any time soon (even though it really should have been updated a few times since then).



I love our ward system. Many others do not. I would like to see the option for those that do want it, and maybe as a way for all characters to be able to have their own house and not just an apartment (or maybe just an apartment if they really do expand them like they said they were looking into).
quick edit - As I understand it our current housing system is not truly instanced with all of the wards from all of the worlds constantly taking up space like the other worlds zones on the servers. While the insides of the houses are instanced, the wards themselves are not.

To answer that, yes they should do so, other games do and have done similar things for the greater good, also it is just a game so technically can not really be hurt other than actually having one house you can spend all the time in as doubtfully would be able to fully enjoy 20 of them for any purpose or use whenever it get to it and yes I know, I got more than 11000 hours in FF, also why should someone change servers if someone own 20 hours being grandfathered, why should people leave their friends, would it not be better for these Grandfathered people for an instance themself move to a server that is barely populated so they can endure their thing for house hording better instead of pestering the actual more populated places, it is a clear minority that has more then the current allowed housing as it is, just stick with the times as it is.

The wards themself is an instance, we got 18 instances with 18 sub divisions in them, that allow multiple people in it, alike Eureka (insertwhateevrareahere)

I would go with SE enforcing this with a but and solution as well, multi owners getting moved to a server entirely for that as an option to keep their stuff as be giving the choice to move to another server or give up all property on current one as a better solution, instead of legit players having to feel punished by being forced to move to an empty server just to get a hosue or have a better chance at getting one as it is
