All of this talk of the first come first serve setup that has been in place with the housing plots has got to be revamped at minimum. Instanced housing isnt happening anytime soon nor is a revamp of the system as a whole but its implementation should at least be looked at.

There needs to be criteria placed to allow a chance for those who have never had a house plot before to have a shot. The most fair way has to be a lottery system to where you talk to a npc and place the gil amount for a plot you want with a drawing system in place after 1 week. The luck of server hardware/software being against you and a throttled login system this would make better sense then feeding bad habits of missing real life and sleep for a chance to play a part of the game denied to people because of scheduling.

On top of that people who have never had a house should get a priority over those with houses on other characters.
