[Request] Please Suspend Housing Demolition for NA

[Morzy]

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

While I do understand the plight, they didn't stop the timer when Italy was hit by earthquakes last year that literally destroyed towns, or when the floods hit Europe in 2014. They stopped it for the Japanese because they're a Japanese publisher, and the dev team was personally affected by the earthquake there. They went out there to help as well. If they do stop the timers for NA, then it's not fair for EU players who also got hit by calamities but didn't get the same treatment.

The timer didn't exist back in 2014. Additionally, at the time of the earthquake in Italy, housing was already suspended, and remained so for another month. If EU needed more time to recover, i don't see what was stopping anyone from petitioning for it.

Hm... my apologies then. I thought that the timers were already back when earthquakes in Italy hit.

This is a fair request. OP has my support.
Suspend the demolition timer for housing. It's only fair.

Friend got hit pretty hard with the hurricane. Looking at over 40% of her island without power, with a window of a month or more to restore it.

Remember, we have other people not actually in the States that got hit far worse than us with less resources to get back on their feet.

I support temp measures for the demolition. I do however don't think they should delay Shirogane housing. I mean this in the best of ways.

Lots of people quit the game. Those houses shouldn't sit in Limbo. I still believe personally a paying sub should be all that's necessary but that's me.

If they quit they are unlikely to keep paying sub though?

[Rakiria]

I absolutely support suspeding auto-demoishion. Let the people come back to something they had before. But we've waited very long for shirogane already, I don't think this much is necessairy right now.

[Stormfur]

I agree wholeheartedly. Yes, many people lost everything and losing a home in a video game doesn't even come close to priority, but when you finally do get back on your feet, it would be nice to know that you have something to come home to (in Eorzea).

I can support the request for suspend on demolishing. Since in Japan. They did this.. USA should have that right too.

However, I do not agree on delaying the 4.1 housing launch. With people "Moving" to the new area. That will open up house slots on the rest of the server. While I understand this may not be as favorable. Those with houses will be happy to keep what they have, while people who dont have any, will find plots opening up in 4.1
