Auto-demolition needs to be re-enabled immediately.

above poster is off the goop guess what thats how it already has been so deal with it! owned

anyway autodemo NEEDS to be turned on yesterday. it's going to be at some ill-defined moment anyway -- ostensibly its off "for the war" in ukraine, but seriously, when can you possibly turn it back on after such a solemn decision? when there's a ceasefire? when the situation has levelled out to a slow-moving frontline? when the donbas belongs to country A or country B? it was a mistake to get caught up with international issues like that... a natural disaster is one thing, because the situation has already gotten as bad as it'll get, and is in a state of repair. but a political situation truly never gets better, and can always get worse. imo they would be wise to just announce it's coming back on with 6.2 and sidestep the entire magpie they walked into.

You clearly didn't even bother reading my post. The number of plots that would be freed up by turning demolition back on, would NOT come even remotely close to satisfying even a mere fraction of the demand for housing. What you are asking for is NOT going to solve this problem. Adding more housing, a LOT more housing, IS.

Just auto demo doesn't help, but with the addition of new wards Auto Demo has to be activated so there's at least some sort of rotation or else adding new wards will end up being the exact same thing that's already happening, keep adding wards and keep auto demo on.

Ok and you re-add it and now it's all active players... There are more active players on a server than there is housing. You would move around housing to those constantly playing sure but it won't free any new housing up the number is still the same.

Well obv turning autodem on isn't gonna give everyone a house, but it does mean there will be at least(hopefully) a few houses available every lottery reset...otherwise after the next there won't be any available houses unless someone server xfers. Hopium is a powerful drug

They are just telling the truth. The slow trickle of auto demos wont cover the need. I am not angry at someones opinion esp when it is true, but that being said it would help some and some is better than none.

Wait they're leaving it off because of Ukraine? Do Ukrainians even make up 1% of the player base? How does a war in the eastern bloc effect jack shit over here?

I don't really care where your "over here" is, I just know that I don't want to live there if this horrific attitude is shared by others living there. Yes, Ukrainians do play the game and yes, some of them are having to pause their lives, that once were just like your comfortable life, to defend themselves and their loved ones. They've lost so much and yet you want to take their in-game house too?

It's not just Ukraine being disrupted. There are other events around the world disrupting player lives, including a major earthquake in Japan back in March.

This is something that SE regularly does when there are major disasters or other events disrupting large regions. Since players aren't restricted to choosing worlds based on their geographic regions, demolition suspension tends to end up affecting all data centers though sometimes SE will limit it to just one region.
