Is this considered okay?

[BreathlessTao]

thats just beyond dumb and backwards thinking.

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.
