The housing system is trash!

[Seraphor]

you want to know that absolute worse thing about this system and its the same thing they have been doing for years. people who already have houses can keep bidding. its like WTF!!!!!!! i have been trying to get a house for 8 years, 8 YEARS!!! 2490 days subbed. I quit for a year because of housing. this time i bid on a house far away from the mb and aetherite, was the only bidder. was so excited standing by it though finally, then this A ho come buy and bids on it as 8:58, they win, laugh at me and don't even buy the house. same thing this week, was 1 of 2 and lost and they still haven't even bought that house. its horrible, if you already own a house, you shouldn't be able to bid on other plots period. if you want to move, then you should be required to abandon the plot. prior to the entry time slot.

1. If they win the lottery, and don't claim the house, they lose half the Gil. No one is doing this just as a prank.
2. If someone relocates, they haven't taken any extra houses, their old house is now available.
3. If you forced players to relinquish their old house first, before gambling on a new one, then people simply wouldn't do it. This would mean you're permanently locked into the first plot you win. This is just going to make people even more picky about the plots they bid on, so you'll get hundreds of bids on the popular plots, and 0 bids on the unpopular plots, and people will still be complaining about a lack of plots despite half the plots sitting empty because no one wants to commit to an ugly plot forever. People wouldn't be able to upsize from a Small to a Medium to a Large. Nobody would like this system.
