    Yeap, so am I.

    FFS do the math, you don't even need a link to an article to figure this out.

    There are 68 servers for the entire game.
    Four housing zones with 24 wards = 96 wards, * 60 plots per ward = 5,760.
    5,760 housing plots * 68 servers = 391,680.
    There are over 20 MILLION player accounts in FFXIV. 20,000,000.

    4 zones * 24 wards * 60 plots * 68 servers = 391,680. Again, look at that number vs. player population.

    That's 1.96% of the population with access to housing plots. This does not include apartments.

    If you want that figure, I'll do the math for you on it so you can continue being lazy in figuring out that 1.96% of the game population world-wide has access to housing plots. If that isn't taking a privileged stance on housing, I don't know what else to do to convince you.

    They have let the problem swelter to an unmanageable number of players out of housing, and have let people purchase multiple *MULTIPLE* housing plots for themselves. They continue to own these plots of land with no recourse of action taken against them.

    I will also go and try to find the article I had read years ago where SE said it was a privilege to own a home in this game. However, I think the math does the talking related to duration of how long this has been going on.

    *EDITED* my server count was off, added what I missed. It still sucks regardless for the players.
