    You don't waste it on forum trolls? Come on, everyone should be empathic to themselves at least! :^)

    vs

    "All you guys can think about is me, me, me. I and everyone else who also can't get a house feels blocked and gated by content that should be accessible to everyone. Everyone who has a house and doesn't want instanced housing/more wards/whatever is an elitist snob who likes looking down on other people."
    More generally, as with many subjects in the forum, it all comes down to
    Enjoying Final Fantasy XIV for what it is.
    versus
    Hating Final Fantasy XIV for what it is not.
    The extreme saltiness of some forum posters, obvious from their repeated hyperbole and attacks on the devs, really makes you wonder why they are playing the game at all.

    You don't know what "empathic" means, do you?
    Go look it up, then stop spouting nonsense -- if you can.

    (I really miss the emphasis on actual education that schools had in the wake of Sputnik.)

    You literally jumped into a thread with people who you knew were going to be upset over a rng/luck based system and bragged about your own good luck right to their faces before telling them off because they're asking for an alternative. At the least you could've been constructive about it, but you weren't.

    Care to explain how you're not a forum troll?

    Empathetic - showing an ability to understand and share the feelings of another.

    While I understand that your houses make you happy and am happy for you, you need to learn to read the room and not rub your own success in the faces of those who haven't been as lucky as you. Be humble.

    You are just doing some basic trolling and you said you have no empathy for trolls. If anything, your logic is nonsense. lol

    That doesn't make them a forum troll. It makes them unaware of their social position when talking about a topic that as you stated comes of as braggart. You could say it makes them (insert bad word here). but that doesn't make them a forum troll.

    FC Rooms or Apartment is not a Sufficient alternative, i had the faint hope island sanctuary maybe we can have a house to ones liking but its static Buildings.

    Please add more wards.

    Thank you,
    I for one enjoy redesigning my apartment. I do it often. I would love to have a viable option to owning a house so that I can do more of what I want without having to be aware of what I can and can't do because of limitations of the system, or just a flat out lack of continued development for apartments, but I don't. And because of the lottery much like you OP I am also done with the housing lottery system.

    I "jumped into this thread" to refute an outright lie that was posted to it: that "this stupid bloated ward system ... serves no purpose." To do so, I posted nothing but truth.
    You appear to have a problem with that.

    Apparently, you consider a completely true statement "trolling" and an outright lie not trolling.
    To you, a "troll" is anyone who posts truths you find inconvenient, isn't it?

    Well, unfortunately you're not alone in that.

    It wasn't just luck. There's a reason I have leveled 12 alts to 2nd Lt. and L50 or better.

    And frankly, I don't consider having an FFXIV house anything to brag about, no more than having a pair of Keen Uneek sandals would be.
    I own Keen Uneek sandles, and as with owning a FFXIV house I get joy from doing so, but I don't think saying so is bragging. In fact, relating the joy I get from these silly shoes might lead to other people enjoying them too, so why not share the joy?

    Anyone who is "bragging" about an FFXIV house must have very few real accomplishments, I think.
    That's not the case for me, but listing my real-life accomplishments?
    Yeah, that would be bragging.

    And finally, humility is just another kind of lie. I have little use for lies.

    It makes them a troll when they have nothing to constructive to add to the discussion and they essentially posted what they posted to rile people up.

    Edit: Please keep reading their posts and try to convince me how they're not a troll. Seriously, if the post above this one doesn't convince you then you're absolutely deluded.

    If you wanted to refute what that person said all you had to say was "I get enjoyment from my house which I got through this system, and so do many other people."

    Also, just because you posted something doesn't make it true(doesn't make what they said true either, but we're not discussing that). You posted your opinion, drop this random gibberish about truths and lies. The reason people are calling you a troll is because you didn't even post a well constructed thought, you simply came here to rile people up.

    And on another note, instead of trolling around the forums for attention, why don't you spend some time with your husband and FC? Oh right, chances are they find you just as annoying as we do.
