    Yet a system that literally forces RNG does that. Is that what you do when you are farming dungeon drops? Spam it over and over till you get what you want. It's literally the ONLY way with a system like this. Luck shouldn't ever be a factor in purchasing house. If I see a plot I should be able to just buy it right then and thier. People overly exaggerated the RMT problem and this has become way worse by miles and it didn't evem get rid of RMT. As the only way to RMT is through the complete broken, timer bypassing plot relocation function.

    Since you've not been playing that long, you should research other posts regarding housing prior to when plot timers were added. Removing it will only allow you to know sooner that you didn't get the house you had your eye on, due to people buying them up, not to live in, not to decorate, but to turn those houses around with a mark up price 4 times what the plot was worth or worse. You have no idea the purpose of those timers, just that you don't like them.

    Camping an item or anything you may want in a mmo (not necessarily something you need) has been around since the beginning of mmo's. Spamming something has too. RMT has been around the same amount of time as well. So, don't act like any of this is something new and only in ffxiv. Please don't act like because you pay, you should have easy access to anything you want in game. Never worked that way before in any mmo and it won't work here. This is not a "needed" item to be able to progress in the game even, so I totally agree, no one is forced to spam a placard for a luxury item the game offers. If you don't like it then don't do it. If you're determine than do it without complaints. If you're going to complain, do your research to know what you're talking about.

    Since you've not been playing that long, you should research other posts regarding housing prior to when prices were adjusted. The original prices of houses was, on average, higher than the prices players are/were reselling the plots at.

    The troll has returned. You should give up all those houses you own too, but oh well. The one who greedily grab up all these houses in a ward speaks since it shines a light your way and no one really listens anymore.

    We sold the houses lol. Regarding attention, the analytics on our website disagree with you LOL.

    You can stay upset at players reselling houses all you want, but the fact remains that houses being traded between players are in most cases, cheaper than what they used to cost on release. You should leave your tainted judgement at the door if you want to fact check people.

    I don't give two shakes about your analytics or your website. Many know what you're about and you love to troll anyone about housing and spew nonsense about much of it. But hey they can go look up your previous posts for themselves. It's quite entertaining.

    What is most hilarious is that I wasn't even talking about player trade of plots, but you go on ahead spew whatever nonsense you wish, because this is what you're infamous for anyway, well aside from greediness. Don't expect me to congratulate you on your profit from hoards of houses you owned and say you sold. You deprived quite a few out of owning plots and now do you expect a pat on the back? Sorry no can do little one.

    Or you could, just.. Y'know.

    Not engage it? Stick to the topics intention and remain on-point, rather than derail it? (Rather hypocritical coming from me, but point still stands)

    In Baps defense, though. When they purchased the housing, they weren't doing anything wrong. So they were (And to some, still are) well within their right to own said housing. People that come late to the party cannot really complain about no housing, when they could've got said housing if they came to FFXIV earlier. Not much of a great defense, but saying certain players are horrible people, purely because they own things you don't is kind of petty.

    I mean, again, there are plenty of servers that, prior to Shadowbringers launch (Which brought most of the new players in, might I add) that were mostly ghost-towns. Plenty of plots vacant with barely anyone going for them. It's only with the new flood of players that the issue gets put under the microscope. Something not even SE can fix preemptively. (Not without wasting resources on a PROBABILITY. Not a CONFIRMATION)
