PREFACE:

There are an unfathomable number of players not getting to experience FFXIV content properly because you [SE] have an entire feature-set locked to the minority of the populace right now.

I: The Basics

SE knows very well that people own numerous plots, and hold them to sell for exorbitant amounts of gil in-game. There's nothing in place to prevent someone from making an alt, transferring gil, and holding plots. This at the very least is the one thing that needs to change. Owning a house, personally, should be locked to a single account - that is all the characters in a single world...not just to a single character.

II: Recourse

I feel anyone who has a hold on more than one plot, should be punished. Any who have sold (and I feel SE should take the time to parse logs and figure out exactly who they are) should be banned, permanently. It's as offensive as RMT is. Seriously.

To be continued...
