I’m not in favor of a tax for either system. If someone gets an instanced home and winds up not using it, where’s the harm there? If it’s not is use, it’s not putting any strain on the server, nor is it denying anyone else a chance to use housing, unlike unused ward homes that collect dust while others go without.

And the nice thing about instanced, is that it would be easily possible to let everyone have their dream plot. Everyone gets what they want, without taking anything away from anyone else.
To address the underlined - because the instanced system would require zero effort to achieve the penultimate goal of those who are competing for housing. it diminishes the accomplishments of others by handing it over.
The Bold point is actually not true; for it to be accessible and able to be queried it needs to exist; even if not loaded at the time. This is the crux of the problem with island sanctuary at the moment and why it becomes unable to be accessed sometimes because if there are a lot of people using it. The reason island sanctuary is somewhat viable is because there are actually VERY little variables involved in one. They all are essentially identical except for which of the 3 options people put in the "slots" - housing is exponentially larger with its variables. I have not dug too much into the tech of IS however but seems to me like essentially having a bunch of IS's where people are just phased to not see each other or their minions/pets/crops would essentially be the same as each having their own.

Finally with instanced - its just instant gratification. I see my struggle to relo to a med like any other challenge - I will earn it through the means provided. Its like; why can't we just do ultimates unsynced? Some folks would love the special plates/titles/weapon skins?
