The fact that people who abuse the relocation system as it is immediately leap to assuming people are taking delight in "knowing they just screwed the homeowners over" is pretty telling, my dude. No one wants to hurt the players who have a home, but the relocation system as is, is pretty awful and is actively detrimental towards a fair system that enabled players to get houses they wanted. Instead plots like The Goblet are in a constant state of flux as rich people snap up all of the small plots just so they can swap to the plot they really want as soon as it goes up for sale without having to play fair like everyone else.

Reactions to this change just remind me of the old quote "When you're accustomed to privilege equality feels like oppression." because lmao, home owners aren't being screwed over in any way. You just have to wait in line and play fair like everyone else now, and the fact that so many people are crying furious tears about how they can't just keep cutting in line jumping from house to house while so many other people haven't even had a chance to get one plot yet is absolutely hilarious. Relocation still exists and still functions fine; you just aren't being given special status that lets you act like you're better than everyone else.
