Suggestions: Housing wait list

[Loirine]

You're right that we don't have enough housing. However, some of us can't be on 24/7 to check for a house to pop up. When I'm on, I check every hour that I can to find something, but no such luck. So what chance do I have of getting a house without a waiting list and no new houses any time soon? Of course, if SE decide to make a lot more houses, this won't be needed, but I'd rather have this than nothing.

Everyone I know who has a house, fc or personal, has it because there was no waiting list. They had the cash, were at the right place right time, and got the plot. It's a horrible system and I utterly despise it. OP's suggestion just adds another layer of unfairness to it. I don't disagree with it because I have a house, I disagree with it because it's an awful suggestion. It does nothing to fix the actual issue: there aren't enough houses.

Also maybe you should read my entire post because I did suggest something, although not in detail.

Your own suggestion would screw you over. Waiting lists are almost always based on first come first served, and you only get bumped up for something like health reasons or if you since had a child. Obviously those reasons would not apply to the game at all so most likely you would only get bumped up if someone gives up their spot. You have just said you cannot play 24/7 so chances are you will be unable to log in early on the day waiting lists are introduced.

No we need a complete overhaul or a significantly immense addition of wards. Not something else on top of an already broken system.
