"Free Company Houses" should not exist, they only encourage "personal/solo FC's"

How about nothing gets removed /replaced/changed and no one punished
SE man up and provide enough

NO MORE EXCUSES

Exactly this tbh, "please take away other people's houses so I can have a tiny chance at getting one !!!" is really not it.

They literally can't, server space costs real money and real space. They may have to rent our more physical space to store more physical servers (for which there is a chip shortage).
They're already working on adding more world servers for EU this summer, it's a long process.

They may eventually get around to adding more server space for housing once the higher priority stuff is out of the way, but it'll be a handful of additional wards, and it still won't ever meet demands.

The system is just fundamentally stunted.

Always a good excuse huh?

If you call a reason an excuse, sure, you can just stick your fingers in your ears and scream as loud as you can. See how far that gets you Karen.

Yes I'm a Karen because I can see that they dont care about fixing housing, sure buddy

It's arguably Yoshi-P's obsession with a 'neighbourhood feel' that has led to the current predicament.

This keeps getting thrown around. Has he reiterated that position recently? I'm reasonably confident that he is painfully aware that the ward system simply isn't living up to their expectations and has been nothing but a source of bad PR since it's been released. The servers and the services they run to manage the interior instances are just barely able to keep up.

I'm not cutting them any slack but I do understand the complexities of the problems they need to solve. Unfortunately they are also ridiculously tight-lipped about development projects until they're ready for release. I'm just hoping they're working on an alternative before housing collapses under its own weight.

TL;DR: I very much doubt the reasons have anything to do with obsession over a pipe dream.

Explain Island Sanctuary being instanced then, since apparently that also takes up server space

we still dont know what exactly island sanctuary actually is. it could be housing in the same way fc airships are transportation.

They explained it as being "your personal space where your minions can run around", so idk how that can be interpreted as anything other than being an instance.
