    They should add the option that our alts can use our mains house.

    It would be nice to get an official statement as to why this isn't so. Authorizing them on MogStation could be a way of doing it. It's ridiculous we can't friend our own accounts so we could allow them the opportunity our friends can have. Please allow us to let them use our own house and services there. My alt can jump to a friends house to mend but can't to my own.

    I'll +1 for Alts to use your house. If you buy a house, the Alts you create should effectively own that house. A house based on an account would be nice. But that might be the problem: They have it set, coding wise, that it's owned by the player and only the player and not the account and having to redo the coding would take too long for them to do it. They might have better luck just adding more plots when the technology is available (Copy and Paste division/subdivision with the same coding saves a lot more time.)

    I personally don't feel like buying my main alt a house (She's only level 43ish anyway.) But I can completely understand the requirement, especially in a roleplay situation. Problem is, the roleplay scene is a small fraction of the gamers in the game. (To my understanding. Two servers have a healthy amount of RPers but I can't see it added just for RP's sake...Just my two cents there.

    I understand that some players have their reasons to want a house for their alt (eg. RP), but unfortunately the unbridled house flipping that players are getting away with has ruined it.
    I think there is a lot of quiet on this issue because many players have their houses already from previous ward releases, and are frothing at the mouth to dash out of the gates to pick up even more. It's just the small FC's and players who have finally made enough gil to afford housing for 3.3 that will have to compete with all those who already have housing and just want more and more. I don't think it's fair.
    I don't expect SE will make an official announcement either, they are just going to turn a blind eye..as always.

    I very much agree with this post.
    It isn't so much of a "race" to see who can get plots first, it's a matter of staying up or getting up at odd hours just to buy land before the masses wake up. If they couldn't implement a system to allow first time buyers a few hours/days to grab housing, I'd like to maybe see the wards stagger release. Possibly releasing on different days or hours just so people can't camp outside plots. Raw idea though.

    The multiple house dilemma is just aggravating between all the alts and FCs with more than one house. Don't mean to veer off topic, but FCs really should have a minimum member requirement. Don't allow people to make an FC with alts or paid randoms and then kick everyone so they can be the sole FC person reaping the benefits. Anywhoo, personal housing really should have been separated from FC (as was promised), and wards/plots should be based on server population, not just general game. I can't imagine how bad housing is on Blamung.

    I actually want to try out the new housing, but I'm scared if I relinquish my house, I won't be able to get a place and I'll be houseless.

    I personally had wish that they had gone with a route similar to how housing is done in EverQuest 2, but since their server hardware/software can't handle that amount of instancing I know that will never happen.

    I would love to have a private residence for my characters (they're all on different servers, sometimes having a basic subscription is awesome... especially when you're an altoholic like me) but because of the market flipping, I know that will never happen. And, honestly, I can't think of a solution that would work to appease most folks.

    I LIKE the fence. I get 2 groups to laugh at then.

    The game should direct the money to the player funds and only give it to the npc to sink money if it is an empty plot that way the owners wouldn't have the excuse to say I am trying to recover my money and trying o make a profit. The game should take inconsideration the furniture's and other items inthe house to give back to the owner the Gil used to buy the house and their Gil invested.
