Please restrict FC houses to one owned per account

In the case of the leader not signing in for 35 days, the same applies.

35 days seems awfully short (even shorter then the 45 day time for private houses). I'd be curious what the current time is for leader transfer. Seems to me some people might actually take a vacation for that amount of time.

There are certainly a lot of ideas to add restrictions in an attempt to remove housing from owners by many means. I'm personally of the view that a paying sub is all that should matter when it comes to keeping a house but that's me. I've never been a fan of having to enter the house model.

That's exactly what the 35 days is. They could add a 10 day grace period for transfer attempts to meet up with the 45 day auto-demo timer, but in that special case, literally everyone else in the fc doesn't qualify because they themselves are already the owner of an fc with a house on the same world.

My question is what is the current time period before a FC is transferred if a leader doesn't log in? You're saying it is currently 35 days or is that something you're proposing?

Edit: Appears it's 35 days after googling and reading about it. I wasn't aware that the time was so short.

Unless it was changed, it should be 35 days according to some really old patch notes.

In the event a free company master does not log in for 35 days (Earth time), ownership will be automatically transferred to another free company member, based upon the following criteria:
1. Members who have logged in within the past seven days
2. Higher-ranked members preferred
3. Senior members preferred

That. Is. Stu-ahem, a bad idea.

What part is a bad idea to you and why? It blocks FCs with houses from being handed over to anyone on a world that already has an fc with a house on their account.

They added FC transfers quite late and after the fact that FCs ending up with a master who has quit is not a good situation to be in. This is not something that should be prevented. FC transfers must remain available to all FC members or else you risk a situation where FC ownership quite simply can't be transferred, and then we're back to square one.

Yes, but again this is a situation where every single member is already the owner of their own separate fc that has its own fc house on that world. If a person is in the fc and is part of another fc on the same world that has a house, but are not the owner of that other fc, they'd still qualify for ownership transfer.
