Now I imagine a FC would like that plot, or even someone, by arbitrarily holding onto that plot for your own selfish reasons, you could instead potentially make a group or possible individual feel accomplished or even happy at that. IDK maybe it's just the fact there's a certain individual who owns 50+ plots on my server and is taking up space arbitrarily because 1 billion plus gil isn't enough in this game, I get frustrated with those who don't actively play on said account that they own a plot on and do nothing with. Deleting the plot or whatever won't take away your memories they'll always be there. Just my 2 cents.
    Sure it may be selfish but is that a bad thing? Wanting a plot in itself can be seen as selfish, it is not a bad thing but way I see it why should ones desire to own a plot have more value then another because it is hard to come by.

    I mean fair point. Though you said it yourself, you hardly login to that particular character. I literally see no reason to hold onto the plot.

    I think these FCs who don't even have a small house are more entitled and selfish than solo players who own FC houses.

    The solo player had to grind out the FCs/gil and put in the effort to buy FC houses from the system or other players.

    FCs with multiple members have no excuse why they don't even have an FC with a small house.

    Many topics in this forum seem to frequently confuse ethics and morals with rules. Being selfish is not against the rules. A majority of these housing posts end up being a question of morality, but that's about it. Nobody can tell you the right or wrong way to own, operate, or even hold a plot.

    i agree, personally I try not to push my own ethics or morals on another person because they differ from person to person, that is why this entire issue confuses me why some people feel the need to push their own standards on others. If it is not against the rules, why blame or even advocate for the for the retroactive removal of plots because some people may feel it is "unfair" or breaks some weird moral code between players.

    That is the thing you may see no reason for it, but I do.

    I'm sorry, what? Yes. Yes it is a bad thing to be selfish and hoard things that you are both not using (wasting the potential of) and actively depriving others of for a finite resource simply because you can.
    Like am I having a stroke? Is this not planet earth right now?

    edit: I'm gonna bow out now before I get too heated--I'm having an out of body experience trying to wrap my head around the Pale Man (pan's labyrinth) viewpoint going on.
