    No more worries about losing a house to demolition because you stopped playing for a couple of months.

    Instanced housing solves those problems for an expanding player base without creating a massive drain on server resources. More wards wouldn't.
    1) You don't need to camp placards. You're all acting as if you MUST stay there for the 12 - 18+ hours for a chance, when there are plenty of groups out there trying to help decrease your camping time and increase your actual useful time. Like, down to 1H or 30M of camping a plot. That's a pretty big advantage that the community offers.

    2) Paying a house flipper millions of gil for an FC house is not only a Bannable offense, but frowned upon in every capacity. SE already pointed out that players can and will get banned for gouging plot prices. Getting a house that way only makes you worse than the sellers. (And yes, they can see when you do it. They're not dumb.)

    3) Yes, because having a house remain yours for 6+months while you're off doing other shit, while the rest of your server is at each others throats for any plot available is totally fair. If you're not using the house, what reason do you have to be pissed when its taken away from you? It's just collecting dust in that regard and other people would definitely use the space a lot more wisely than someone that left.

    4) Instanced housing WONT fix all these issues. Because even then, Instanced housing has a limit, same with District housing. It may not be a 1:1 ratio, but I can guarantee that 50+ apartments is much more taxing on a server than a handful of small plots. The issue we're at right now is that the demand is far higher than the supply and, despite SEs best efforts. Other people (See point 2) are only making it worse by capitalizing on other peoples desperation for validity. Adding more wards or adding more instanced housing won't fix the issue in any regard until the problems of both past and present are fixed.

    We can't move on with building the foundations of a new way of life if the foundations are made of mud and cracked dirt. Shit'll crumble faster than you could run.
