Housing demolition timer need to be changed! Sitting on your property needs to count.

If you guys think literally walking into your house once every 45 days is "baby sitting" I hope you never have kids or are around kids...

Just transfer to Japan Datacenter. Last time I checked they had tons of housing and have very good player base.

losing a house in balmung? BALMUNG!? goodluck finding a new one.

First: This post is meant for only people that had this happen to them.
Second: I pay for subs.
Third: I enjoyed my house and queuing from outside for pvp, doing tournaments, ranking top 100. I do not feel this deserves loss of house. You stated its a burden, I did not. It is not. I normally would enter house, just lost track on time and that fact that the timer stuff started again, I was busying enjoying the game from my house outside to notice.

1. are you serious? it's official forum, duh.
2. even if you pay a sub you still need to abide by their rule because you just only rent their online space. same with your character tbh.
3. "just lost track of time" are lame excuse, it's 45day! not 45 minute for god saaaaaake
OP's entitlement are so real, almost can touch it on my screen...

They could make housing instanced or semi instanced like apartments that we never lose. Too bad OP, you are on Balmung too it looks like. I visited there once, there were no houses available.

Maybe if you use your house you shouldn't worry about that.

I lost my house too but I was taking a break. Got pretty upset about that because it is not that easy to make Gil for me and I had lost my money and furniture on that. It is kinda fair because you are not playing anymore but they should at least give back your Gil.

If your house gets auto-demolished you have 30 days (...I think it was 30) to pick up your furniture and 80% of what you paid for the plot from the resident caretaker. So you do have a chance to get (some of) your gil and all of your furniture back - unless you're gone for more than 75 days total (45 days for the auto-demolition + 30 days for the pick up).

Get an apartment if you want a place you're not going to walk into anyway and sit on someone else's yard and just pretend it's your own.

I'm going to agree with you on the going inside point, OP. I've always scratched my head a bit that entering the perimeter of the property didn't count and only zoning in did. Because you can interact with your house without going in, such as while gardening or doing chocobo stable activities. Or just sitting on your exterior furniture. It's not hard to go inside. But it does seem it would be more logical that if you enter the perimeter of the property, you're resetting the trigger.

I'm thinking it has something to with the programming. The outside is a public place where anyone can go so it doesn't recognize you being around your house until you actually go inside. Basically, it can't tell the difference between you being on your property or in the ward in general.
