    I don't see the need for a gil sink, but if they want one, then it should be for housing.

    That's too cheap.

    25 million gil/month rent for a large house
    10 million gil/month rent for a medium house
    1.5 million gil/month rent for a small house

    Double it for FC house.

    Please tell me this is trolling. Are you seriously suggesting rent should be somewhere between one third to one half of the price of the house, per month?

    If this is a serious suggestion then just forget about it because it will never happen, can you imagine the outcry from people who have spent years making their house just right only to get hit with a bill every month like that? Ridiculous.

    I'm hoping it's trolling as well, but it's truly hard to say anymore. Anarchy reigns supreme in General Discussion.

    Not trolling, but as I said, I don't see the need for gil sink in the first place.

    That said, for many people, the issue isn't having gil to have a house, but having a house available. So if we're talking about gil sink, this is at least one way of handling both. People will either have the means to buy and keep a house or they won't. And if they don't, there might be others who would.

    That's arguably worse than the idea itself.

    The upkeep thing. The fact that you were serious about the suggestion is just plain sad.

    If they did this there would be about 3 taken plots on each server. Which FC exactly do you think is going to lay 50 million a month down just for the house? I dont have a house either but this will in no way solve anything.
    Even then if they could get that money out of their members, those members would also have to pay for their own houses as well. How on earth is that even close to fair to people who have invested years into their houses?

    The people who who have invested years into their houses are not in a disadvantageous position compared to those who haven't invested or don't even have a house. They're also the ones more likely to have the gil or be able to make gil if they can invest in their house.
