House was wrongly flagged for auto-demolition.

I agree, it is unfair for someone who legitimately bought a house to have it taken away from them. .

i love how you trying to include yourself in what canadane was telling you.

"on any account i own". so i have to ask this: are you absolutely sure it was the proper character and you didn't actually go into a seperate characters private house. Like i need you to really think on this because saying "on any account i own" tells me you own multiple characters/houses which means it could have been any of them you went into.

An account can't own multiple private estates. If your main/alt owns a house, the other characters you have cannot own a house. Alts cannot be tenants of your personal house because tenants must be on your friends list.

Without any proof we can't know if OP is lying or not. Maybe he was late, house got demo'd. Made a story to complain that makes him look like an innocent victim. We just don't know. And given most people's houses don't just disappear. You would have to bring compelling evidence to convince the skeptics here so I don't see that happening.

Sorry you lost your house though, I lost a medium once. It sucks.

An account can't own multiple private estates.

An account can own multiple houses but not on same server/world.

Technically they can, if they are grandfathered in from before the changes to the rules.

I own multiple houses and was not grandfathered on that account. It's one personal house per server, unless that rule changed during my break between 6.1 until a month ago.
So, for example.

Let's say I have a character on World 1 and have a personal house
Then let's say I have another character on World 2, I can have a personal house cause it's not on the same world/server.

But I wouldn't be able to have 2 personal houses on 2 different characters on World 1 or 2 in this example.
AFAIK there isn't a limitation placed where you can only own 1 personal house per account and world.

A final note on grandfathered, then you could own multiple houses on same character, which hasn't been possible for a very long time.

I can actually verify the housing bug as someone in my life recently lost theirs after only stepping inside and then leaving again (within the last week or two). Thankfully they were able to get another house fairly quickly but yeah, that bug does exist. I didn't think it did either until it happened to someone I'm shared on.

Putting on my programmer hat for a second. Question for others who have experienced this. Is it always on a shared house? Maybe that's the pattern. Anytime I've ever had to reset my trigger when it was up for demo I just had to walk in. I've had my house since before prices were equalized across all servers so it's been a lot of years. I can't even remember when they did that. But I have never shared it with anyone and have never had to interact with anything.

Of my friend group, we all have houses. We all have them shared with each other, and no one has lost a house to this "bug." I've only ever seen the demo timer once, when I had to take a break from the game due to an extended vacation out of the country with no access to the game.

3) This is why I listed it as a technical issue but then the forum Mods moved this thread to general discussion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Forum: Technical Support > Technical Support is not for general bug reporting. It's specifically for problems like the game not accepting keyboard input, network issues, game crashing. Stuff like that. General bug reporting goes in Forum: Bug Reports > In-Game Bugs Each forum has a Sticky: Welcome to the "FORUM NAME" Forum! thread that tells you what the forum is for. Always read the Welcome sticky before posting to a new forum.

The bug report forum also includes templates that they want you to follow. If you don't follow those templates, they'll move your thread to Forum: Bug Reports > Insufficient Information and ignore it. They still might move it to Insufficient Information even if you do use the template, if they don't think you gave enough detail to reproduce the issue. If you gave them all the information they wanted but they still can't reproduce the issue then your thread goes to Forum: Bug Reports > Unable to Verify. Given that this issue isn't easily reproduced by players, giving them enough information to avoid Insufficient Information and Unable to Verify is going to be tough.
