thats the point though not everyone needs a house. so many people want a house just to have it.

why does someone who plays once a week needs a house? an appartement would be enough in those cases. you can decorate it, but there is no point in being a member in a neighbourhood if you arent around anyway.
Neighbourhoods are completely dead, the argument is fallacious. Which brings me to my second point: neighbourliness isn't what makes most people want a house. Many seem to want it for the sheer pleasure of knowing that their character has a pied-à-terre in Eorzea, and... And that's about it. The legitimacy of a request is never based on its usefulness in a game. Or else, forget all the demands for more glamours; forget, I'd like to say, all the demands because you don't ‘need’ to play FF.

There are two possibilities here: either SE reinvests this idea of ‘neighbourhood’ and does something with it (event, benefits, etc) and in that case maintaining the current system is valid. Or we can forget all this fuss about a feature that, today, is deeply outdated and generates nothing but frustration.
