[Request] Please Suspend Housing Demolition for NA

[FallenArisen0990]

I'm in full support of this. Hopefully the Mods can past this along to the Dev Team.

i'm only for this only because they got one in japan, so it's only fair that NA gets one as well...but...*laces up bad guy shoes*

Keeping a house "in a video game" should honest to goodness be a last priority for someone who's a victim of the recent hurricane. While they have my utmost sympathy and i do hope they can get back on their feet with all loved ones well. If your biggest worry is "i need to get on XIV so i can save my house" you may need to rethink your life choices.

Honestly, I thought the same thing with the japan earthquake. It was a great inconvenience for people who didn't have houses yet and were waiting for inactive ones to be taken down just so people who most likely don't even care can keep theirs.

But now I'm at the point where I'm curious if SE will be fair about it toward america more than anything.

While I'm 100% in support of the demolition of housing, it seems only fair since the Earthquakes also caused a pause of the demolition feature. I'd be for it.

[Shebah]

Absolutely in support of this.

Regarding Shirogane, I definitely don't think a delay would really do much other than cause backlash, but if absolutely anything, maybe only delay 3-4 wards but open the rest.

[ErryK]

Yes to suspension of the demolition timer.

No to delaying Shirogane.

[Korihu]

Support.

Love from New Zealand, stay safe you crazy Americans.

Although, would it pertinent to also delay the launch of Shirogane in light of this, too?

No. Disasters are always gonna be happening somewhere; that's not a good enough reason to continuously delay new content.

I can get behind the original request made by the OP, though.

And if they delay Shirogane, how long would they have to delay it with? Have us wait another few weeks? or months? By that time some natural disaster will have struck somewhere in the world again so yet another group of people will as for a further delay.
You cant delay or suspend anything on one datacenter and not on another because can you imagine the outrage there when people see other centers already got it. Looking at the korean and chinese dresses. Or the comments about the cloud mount promotions.
The housing demolition timer is 45 days, would be one hell of a rl disaster if you cant get back online even for a few minutes in that time.
If your rl is that bad i'm shure your ingame house is the least of your worries.

I think this is a good idea. It's sad because a lot of people have a lot more to worry about than FFXIV.
