The same thing as the reclamation system: with how absurdly limited the availability is, especially when directly compared to demand - a "one personal house per account" policy should have been there right from the very start. Just another example of that phenomenally awesome mindset of SE that seems to surface in certain cases, you know where they go "leaving it to the players is the best thing to do". And as all others, this is one is also just another example of why that mindset does not work. Personally, I'm utterly disgusted at the whole concept of house hoarding and wouldn't mind seeing the offenders banned (or at least suspended).

As for all the things that have been planned and mentioned in live letters...... I guess all that just fell through. And I'm willing to bet all that ultimately came down to money, beneath the "more priority" issues and the "deadlines to meet" issues.
