A Residence Reborn - Instanced Housing the Right Way

[Eoko]

basically lottery isn't as fair as you think.

That is totally fair. I don't personally feel that having waited for a house for 4 years, or lost out on 50 placard wars, or being on a large population server entitles anyone to more chances at a house. I don't think the lottery is good. I just think it's better than the current system because it is less harmful.

I encourage everyone to discuss the ideas. We have seen changes to the acquisition of houses before, so input is valuable. A lottery is still the most fair compared to the options we have had. When complaints have been made about the housing system people mostly just say it sucks. Gotta throw out other thoughts, and get people talking, even if it's to disagree. Conflict can breed progress.

Housing acquisition can only be considered fair when all players have the exact same chance to get a house.

100% agree.

Re: Money/Time.

These are all very valid points. Though, I don't really consider time to be one because time is a product of the human experience. Regardless of what one chooses to do, time is going to be a factor, thus it becomes a null point. No one expects to just throw 1mil at a problem and for it to instantly go away. They money just pays for the means to make the fix happen. But, money would buy more tech and more people. And, profit margins have always been a point in relation to money. But at the end of the day, if it's not profitable, or at least a drastic saving to the company, it won't happen. That is why it's all about money. And regardless of time, money does pay for every aspect that is required to make it happen. Hell, I'm fairly anti-capitalist, but when it comes to businesses we all know that if there's not profit/massive savings to be had, it isn't happening. And I really don't expect anything to change. It's probably more likely the tech will just evolve to the point it's cheaper and able to handle more wards.
