We should be able to rent out our houses

At least this means you're paying SE every month, so it's all good.

Apart from that, I'm glad we don't have a rent system, and seeing how SE has taken measurements before to prevent players from abusing the housing system too much, I very much doubt we'll ever get it. Enjoy your status and please keep supporting this game with your money!

i'm against it just because then the people who don't have a house gonna shout louder, yes even if they have chance to rent it they'll shout how they have to pay and owner don't and bla bla bla, just click that placard dammit.

A rent system would just encourage house hoarders to keep it up. No thanks. If you're that sad that your house is empty, either actually use it or vacate the property and let someone else have it.

You're a good example of why I dislike lala's very much ^^

i came to this game to escape late stage capitalism and socialism-hate, not to play a game that promotes worker oppression ugh

Though this is a troll account, he has a point. People don't play games to experience "real life simulator". They often play them to escape some of the not so great things about the real world.

So you just want people to envy you. Well you've already got that from just having one house, never mind more than one. You don't need to become a landlord in this game for people to envy you.

I have this property that I don't even use, but I go in it every week to stop the timer (when the timer is active). We should have like a renting system to allow people to rent out our properties.

This is a good solution to our housing problem.

SE has made it very clear that they don't want that people make a profit from re-selling plots. And now they should add a feature that benefits housing owners by selling the houses for a rent? I don't think so...

Your idea is garbage.

And it's that kind of mindset that is a problem.
"Status symbol"? If you actually used the house for something it might've. Now you're just a hoarder who feels the need to have something others don't to feel good about yourself.

I don't personally recommend condemning an entire race / playerbase off of the actions/words of a few. People do that both irl and in-game far too much.

If you own a house in a populated server but don't actually decorate/use it, that's extremely petty towards people who would use that same plot for things. Nothing I hate more then seeing a basic looking house with only maybe a crystal outside that's been there for months like that, even more so when it's a Medium or, in the case of my neighborhood, a Large.

Guys u are aware that we can only have one personal house and one fc house arnt you?, So I wouldn't fear the slum Lord situation anymore, you've got worse fears now which is actually getting a house with this stupid random timer situation we got now.

Only other people that I can think of that got around this was the people who owned all those lots before they made the change to one personal and one fc house per account, I could be mistaken here but didn't they get grand fathered in thus keeping there houses, if someone knows the answer on this one please let me know cause I heard about this but don't remember what happened in the fallout.

Other then that all I can think of is the guy or girl who pays for multiple service accounts and like it or not he or she has legitimate claim to his or her property, not something I'd do but if there willing to go that far then ya I guess.
