When is SE going to do something real to fix the issues with housing?

[Kenok]

What is with you and handouts I'm not talking about handouts, I'm telling you they have reasons for not having players all get houses. As others have mentioned before it is something that is limited for a purpose, that is all I am saying nothing about rights or demands or handouts.

There's no reason why it's okay for one person to have multiple houses when others haven't had a chance for years, no matter how you spin it. I think you're missing the real issue people have with the system. It's broken and not working, period. It's being abused into the pit by greedy western players.

Not to hate or anything. But the housing will never be fixed. I am not sure how multiple other games can get it to work but SE servers are run by a water wheel. But as long as they never cap servers and keep trying to make the current system work for everyone (which they have proven they can't).

Maybe people are right, they want you to give them more money to transfer or maybe they don't want everyone to have a house.

I have seen suggested time and again housing be instanced tied to account(charged) and shared by all alts on server. A few times suggested retainers be removed and inventory be tied to house. I guess for everyperson bad mouthing the OP the world still has dreamers.

You could very well be right but that should not stop us from trying and voicing our frustration in hopes it changes something.

You keep saying things shouldn't be "handed out to players." They're limited because SE doesn't want to pay for the server space - fine but probably don't allow people to get 10+ of an extremely limited resource then.

If FCs want housing, let them transfer the lot of them off high pop. servers for free to a smaller server with available housing. Yes, S-E will lose Mogstation shekles but FCs would have access to housing they wouldn't have otherwise.

The problem being that then you have to be on some dead server where nothing ever gets done.

They should at least not charge money to transfer to low population servers. Like cmon...

Considering the complaints I hear consistently in game and forums, those dead servers wouldn't be so dead in a very short span of time.

You're right: it's not fair that some people have multiple houses on all of their alts. But, let's be real. Fixing that will do NOTHING to alleviate the fact that most players don't have houses. The number of plots opening up would be great, but as soon as they all sold out (almost immediately), you would all be right back here complaining that you still haven't had a chance to get a house.

Letting people have multiple houses is wrong, yes, but it's NOT what's keeping you from getting one. The extremely short supply is, and that's not something that SE did by accident. They want full houses to be very few in number. That's why their answer to housing complaints was apartments, not more plots.

You say fixed like it's a bug. SE wants full housing to be limited and elite. It's by design.

Fluff content like this should not be 'limited' or 'elite'
With all the Cash shops shiz people spend on and PS3 being removed, they should now have more divisions and such in
with all the money and freedom they will be able to have in SB. SB should also have Ishgardian and whatever the new place
we're going in as homes. They also need to work on expanding apartments. It's literally one tiny FC room.

Even if there were still issues, there would be fewer issues and it would be more fair. Not being able to make something perfect is not an excuse to do nothing. Apartments are garbage. When people bring up apartments it makes me want to vomit.
