Disappointed that private individuals can purchase housing plots in 5.35

I only have one account. Meanwhile you probably have dozens considering your link with the Malboro Novice Network mafia...

Good one! Definitely part of the "Malboro Novice Network mafia" even though I'm not on that datacenter, only have 1 character, and have never been to Malboro in the 10 years I've played this game. Definitely me.

Oh I'm sure threatening to bear the full force of the Novice Network mafia upon me is productive. Know that I'll not bend in the face of private housing tyranny.

Having played for some time, I've seen how the housing system has been implemented rather... poorly. While I can concede some... aspect of OP's argument, fact of the matter is : First come, first served. You don't have to like the system (I can tell you about the last time I tried to bid for a private house and... how it affected me, healthwise), but until SE decides to change it, like it or lump it.

I will add... I don't understand why some people and FC's have multiple houses. I have heard of a ward on another data center, which all the houses are own by a single FC. I honestly think that housing should be one per account (including alts) and maybe, some wards solely for FC's. But saying that FC's should have the dominance in the housing areas... I'm sorry, i disagree with that @OP.

As a private individual, I am not sure why I should be punished for taking the time to craft/gather and work hard for my gil. I transferred DC's and I have four of my retainers stuck with all my medium's furnishings. I rather not buy five apartments to store it and I am NOT going to click a plaquard for 24 hours. I have every right to purchase when everyone else does.

As if THAT was the problem with housing. Gil.
The problem here is the devs that don't want to make personal housing instanced and guild housing into wards. Or just double up the number of wards and be done with the problem. Instead of adding housing, after a few months determine new minimuns and add over 100 wards to each server, see how it fills and then in a few months just remove wards was they are vacant and populations don't go, many players don't even care about housing.

6 wards are what, like 300 houses total?

The whole housing in this game needs to be burned down, i know wards are cool, but they just are not working.
Instanced housing is the way to go.

Or just invest in a hundred more housing servers, like what, cannot purchase more HDDs?

Actually, it's 1440 new houses per server. Also, if you read the post again it mentioned this is a temporary solution until travel restriction get lifted due to Covid-19 and they can install new server hardware.

Excuse me, i didn't know COVID was transmited through SATA cables.

Sounds like you not aware they have to prep the servers in japan, you know where the dev's at and ship them out to all datacenters but there is a thing called travel restrictions in the world so that's that.

But hey, keep being rude to people in this thread and act like a child on a anger tantrum.

I would be more concerned about the Ul'dah Lala cartel.

Your right shouldn't triumph over the rights of a 20-member FC or a 40-member FC

[Nabril]

Ah, the elitism. I see the crafters and gatherers are coming out to attack me to try to secure their private housing and leave poorer and casual FCs in the dust.

Then learn to craft.

Aww, sweetie you seem bitter? I am putting the work. My right is just as much your 20 FC filled with poor people who don't want to put in the time. Be better.
