Housing Revision opinion

[Arazehl]

I'm honestly unsure where your hostility is coming from, superstar. But, I assure you, it's misguided. At the end of the day, you and I are on the same team here. I want to see the housing system improved as much as anyone. I want everyone to have a plot of land and find it mind numbingly short sighted of the dev team to NOT see that housing would be coveted a long time ago and take the appropriate steps to mitigate it. But perhaps before we go cutting people off at the knees (I promise that's not a Lalafell joke), we all put our collective noodles in the same bowl and come up with some well constructed ideas that the devs actually take seriously instead of lambasting each other with half cocked scenarios that will ultimately only serve to fracture the community further and alienate a wide portion of the player base.

You mistaken hostility for being passionate toward an idea and garnering an opinion base what you made public by posting. Just because currently there is very limited restrictions and guidelines in place regarding what makes a Free Company and the responsibility of maintaining one, it shouldn't ever make owning a shell FC the new norm. It goes against the grain and as it stands now it's pushing out real FCs who work extra hard to give back to it's members.

With shell FCs there is tons wrong with it and it grows month after month, year after year. SE needs to suck it up and fix things with housing in more ways than one. Besides what are you afraid of? That you'll lose your FC play things, because you're not really an FC anymore? You could be with a little effort. If there were tighter restrictions and I had an FC like you describe in your post, I would probably lash out against the idea too, but thing is I don't. I have a real honest to goodness FC and that FC doesn't belong to me but to my members. So I'm not going to excuse myself to you for being passionate towards things I hold dear in this game or when I see things that are somewhat off kilter.
