But necessary since house plots are in limited supply and they can't seem to get the hardware needed to add wards at a rate that meets demand. Without demolition, wards would be a sea of plots owned mostly by players who have quit the game.

It's another excellent example of why a ward system is bad compared to instanced housing in the long run.
