    As I understood the originally planned system, more wards would be automatically added as needed. That would have been a great system. As it is though, wards are being added way too slowly, not "as they're needed" at all.

    Also, they aren't addressing issues of over population and under populations by adding more wards where more are needed compared to the less busy cities that don't need as much. On many worlds, Limsa is by far the most popular ward and people will be complaining a day after these new wards are open that yet again there are no free spots in the most popular area while the new wards in the other cities will probably be mostly empty.

    I think Limsa needs at least 2 new wards on every server and again as regularly as needed. Not saying don't give Grid and Uldah some love too but if one is more needed than the others give it more so it can meet the demands placed upon it.

    I actually think they should address this per server and not overall, for a better resource management. It's only legacy servers and maybe two more that need extra wards.

    And maybe more FCs should move into The Goblet. Unless those "full" server wards are actually full. If not, well ..... SE should just not add anything until all housing zones are actually full.

    Having an opinion does not make you right or wrong, it simply means you have an opinion. Don't get irritated when people don't agree.

    Every plot in every city in every ward is full on Balmung. Has been that way for about a month and a half now.

    See. That's a valid reason for needing new Wards. Whereas my own server, Behemoth, has only just started filling Ward 3 in The Goblet.

    It's possible there isn't a way to just add a ward to one city. It depends on how it's programmed. The fact they decided to change The Goblet rather than stack more Limsa Wards tells me there's something unfavorable about just adding Wards when there's plenty of plots available in the other cities. Each Ward might take up a default minimum amount of memory/bandwith. 10 FCs want Limsa homes...LImsa full...10 plots exist between Grid and Ul'Dah...why should they waste server resources on more Limsa Wards? If you wanted a home in a certain subdivision but they all got bought up would you demand they expand the subdivision so you can buy a home? No, you buy one in another subdivision.
