    it comes down to, if those fc's are gil buyers or not.... starting to notice alot of obviousness... kinda wish it would stop. met a guy who had a mansion and head of dreadwyrm and all the best stuff, and all he had was a level 50 bard, no crafts or gathering, and he somehow can afford it...

    really starting to hate this unfairness.

    There are many legit possibilities here though. First of all, just because the person only has a level 50 bard doesn't mean they haven't made millions using solely in-game means. They could have run carries, for instance, or gotten lucky with maps, or played the MB like a market (buy low, sell high), or had their retainers bring them back super valuable things.

    Or, they could be an alt of someone who is a master crafter or whatever whose mansion was full, so they made an alt to buy a second mansion so they had somewhere to put the rest of their stuff.

    Just because someone has nice things doesn't mean they cheated to get them. Of course, they could have, but it's certainly not a certainty.

    Is it fair though for a small group of people to monopolize on the land? Not really, but it's still allowed. Think though of what would have happened if everyone who bought a large house bought 30 smalls instead... All the small houses on the server would be controlled by about ten people. Housing in the current system is not terribly accessible.

    I'm not really one to talk though - I bought two personal houses next to each other, one for me and one for my wife, because SE wouldn't let us share. I still feel bad for the people locked out of housing due to availability, but not bad enough to give up a house for one of them.

    yea, i have nothing against that. after all, its only 2 houses, and SE doesnt provide ways to share. My grudge is with the big FC's using very sneaky ways to obtain land simply because they can.

    Dude, you should really stop siting that like there's no other way to earn gil. Cause there is. Other people have told you and you're just ignoring them and spreading your ignorance around.
