Please Remove Housing Timers During the Covid-19 Epidemic

This isn't just about fatality. Just because this is a recent outbreak it doesn't make it less worse than the flu.

You're replying to me, but I didn't say that.

I pointed to the WHO website because they are going to have more reliable information about it. I'm not trying to back up my prior posts (which are, as I said at the time, not sufficiently researched), I'm providing something else.

For a lot of people this means finances are going to be tight and it's not something they can really control because they're not the ones deciding that they cannot go to work and earn money. And we all know you need money to fund your place in the game.

I really think this is too much of a stretch to expect them to halt the timer because of speculation that some fraction of the playerbase might not be able to afford a subscription. Or certainly too much of a stretch to start asking them to halt it now because it might happen to some hypothetical people sometime in the future.

Again, it's not a population-wide impact that will stop everyone from being able to access the game.

The requests to halt the timer every time there's a disaster are clearly not having an effect. They evidently have their criteria, or maybe they've even decided they're not doing it again. Let them do it when they decide it's worthwhile, instead of asking every time (especially when the answer has repeatedly been no).
