This is a game. People that lost homes allowed others to fulfill their dreams and buy one. You can even prorate your subscription by logging for one day and then cancelling. People who lost their house due to hardships either 1. shouldn't be playing in the first place because life has more pressing matters and 2. didn't want to put in work to pay a fraction of their subscription to keep their house (pay for a month, login, cancel sub, wait close to 45 days, resub, repeat). I wouldn't have gotten my house without autodemo so I am grateful it came back.
