Any money they spend will have to be spent on another character, either via an alt or friend, with the gil itself needing to have been transferred via a friend, because they won't exactly have any income, because they are level one with no retainer access. We know they're not transferring gil or items via an FC chest because the FCs in question have only one member. The only other reason, RP, is the only reason I could feasibly think of, but how large is Ragnarok's RP community? As far as I'm aware, only Balmung, Gilgamesh, and Mateus have any really notable RPer presence. What is the actual chance of all of these houses being owned by level one roleplayers? As a roleplayer myself, I'm more inclined to level more so I can access more areas and settings to play in.
    However, that level one alt is the anchor to the multiple FCs which any character can join the FC, said character has all the tools and things needed to make use of the workshop and as such, does so. There is little need to try to "justify" the ownership with some rose-tinted glass. We know the intent behind owning multiple FC plots for certain players or group of players and its happened for a while. All of this "logical" fallacy is unnecessary.

It is a known fact that there is an enormous amount of flipping going on, and that people are making shell FCs to buy a personal house when it was restricted. Is it truly so hard for you to believe that the owners of these plots don't have suspicious intentions? By the way: https://i.imgur.com/YGvhI7e.png
    One player makes an alt. Other player invites alt to the FC, transfers leadership and boom. This has been done, used and abused on many levels and SE can't do anything about it. Restricting such a process can hamper other instances when part of these steps would be needed on a "better" circumstance.

    I don't own a house, used to and found it a weak system. know plenty of people who own one, or two or n number of houses. I see housing as the most weak deployment of something in its class in my gaming experience. I would love to see it "deleted" if they wont (because they can) really give it structure.

    I'm just sick of seeing people demand "justice" with scorch-earth policies and threats because they have a haywire "moral" compass which makes them feel they can defend some while "punishing" others. You have a house, if you want someone to have one because they should, demolish yours. "But they have more than one" makes no difference. An open house plot is still that, regardless of size.
