During that time, you’ve directly benefited from the EU demolition pause.
Now that you’re able to post again on the FFXIV official forums, it’s clear you’ve reactivated your subscription and logged back into the server.
Yet, after enjoying the full benefit of the demolition pause, you’re suddenly speaking out against it?
Doesn’t that seem a bit hypocritical?
What would you call this kind of behavior?
I can comment in any thread I want, only the mods can stop me (if they still exist). Also, you don't know anything about my situation.

I got rid of my personal house to free up a plot for someone else. I thought having two plots would be too selfish of me, now that I've been losing interest in the game. And I've been sharing my FC house with my friend who's been losing the lottery for years (and soon she will have the whole thing for herself). The demolition pause does not benefit her because she's been active the whole time anyway.

I'm not upset for myself because I'm slowly but surely leaving this game. I'm upset for every player who can't get a house because of this RNG nonsense and auto-demo being turned off for an unfairly long time. Like it or not, I will speak up against this bad system as long as I'm a paying customer.

To answer your question, I would call this kind of behavior empathetic instead of hypocritical.
