Is this considered okay?

No more unfair then private housing in general. One person taking a plot for himself, that could be used for a 200+ size FC.

thats just beyond dumb and backwards thinking. I have been in my FC for a year+ now and finally made it up to officer (2nd highest rank) so now i am trusted enough to move furniture around and really take part in the housing activities including running all the FC crafting as well but where you statement fails is that 200+ people cannot do that in a FC. I bought a small house in the mist when subdivisions were first introduced so that (at the time) i could have a place to make my own (as a designer in real life this means a lot) also i didn't have to worry about gardening and sharing plots with 200+ people. But again only a few people in every single successful FC will have the rights and privilege to do this much with their FC... which sounds just as unfair as your statement.

Also... on topic, there are wards in Excalibur with several plots owned by the same person. I always heard it was so they could grow a ton of plants.

No more so than the general way housing is implemented right now in this game. Ie. the fault is not in Liselsia's sentiment, but in the fact that that is how the system is.

As for OP - I don't think it's considered okay, but since SE can't be bothered with it, there's nothing to be done about it. I see no reason why any one FC should have more than the one house they can buy as one FC. Besides the sheer ridicule that is availability, it's only gaining advantages (think of gardening, now even airships - the things that can be gained from those, in such potential quantities as OP hints at, can easily run parts of the entire market) that are quite a bit beyond unfair for several reasons. Personally, I would love to see cases like this investigated and any and all properties and gains confiscated - sorry not sorry if that sounds harsh, but the conditions are just as harsh too.

Note...

They need to fix the massive clusterf××× that is housing. Especially if they continue to release more housing-oriented content, be that furnitures or features. But, sadly, it doesn't look like it's happening - they seem perfectly content with wards, with "neighbourhoods", as if that provided to at least the majority if not everyone. When in reality it means (as of now, with additional wards and then doubling) 1440 plots per server, for all the FCs and individual players. Even though (from what I see) most people would rather have instanced housing that they can have instead of his ... thing that we do have now.

There isn't even any word on additional wards, really - just along the lines of "it will happen sometime in the future". From a technical point, I can understand that. From the point of us, the players, it's just completely unacceptable.

That guy is just doing supply and demand. Trying to take up as much of the market as possible probably. It's a great way to make tons of money, but there lies a problem with that too. All the people with tons of money, buy all the plots and keep making more money off of it.

...A certain FC on my server appearently has 8 Houses in total, even though i thought FC's could only have one... ...Is this considered okay?...

This only can be considered as okay bcoz technically they are individule FC which has reached rank6 and each FC has it's FC master who owns the FC house, from system veiw these FC have no direct association and they can't share anything including the members at the moment.

By the way, it reminds me months ago somewhere here wrote that FC alliance would be implemented later... etc...
IMO it is predictable and foreseeable many FC will create sub-FCs and form their own "alliance". ^^;
