I definitely don't want to see Premium Wards introduced. I'm already paying extra to have alts on the same world as my main and I'm paying extra for retainers. The game isn't FTP, so I don't want to see housing put behind a second paywall.

Apartments were a step in the right direction but they are not very attractive due to size and lack of features such as Gardening and Workshops for FCs. I would much rather see an improvement on apartments because that would benefit everyone at no extra cost.

As I understand it, the ward system is a part of the problem, because wards are persistent. They are up all the time and that uses a lot of resources.
