Way to take my comment and completely blow it out of proportion. And please show me where I said any of that in my post.

Pretty easy.

People (like myself) have those beliefs because weve seen it happen countless times.

There you go. You admitting your belief of "if I leave, it sells and I lose it" low-key stating that you are ignoring general health concerns, because that would take you away from the virtual house you're trying to obtain.

You just added that part on...I dont understand you honestly. In my experience ive lost houses due to leaving and taking a short break. NOWHERE IN MY POST DID I SAY I WAS IGNORING HEALTH CONCERNS!!! AND IF I DID SAY THOSE EXACT WORDS QUOTE IT. I didnt "lowkey state" anything. That's you putting words in my mouth.
And nice little jab at the end there. Feel better?

You're just trying to start a fight and it's not going to work, hun. The "If I meant that, I would've said that" defense is filled with plenty of holes, especially when personal interpretation is involved. If you value a house in FFXIV so highly, why would it be out of the realm of possibility for you to prioritize that over your well-being? Because -you- are different to everyone else that is doing it? because you're special? Because you "know better"?

Please. There are plenty of people already threatening to abandon their subs or commit physical harm because they're not getting what they want. At this point, it's better to assume (And sadly expect) the worst.

But still, I'm not saying that belief is wrong. Only that some people (that I know of, could be a lot more that doesn't voice it) take it to a worrysome extreme. I've lost houses by looking away for only a second, so I've been in your shoes. I'm just trying to (hopefully) point out that it's not an all-or-nothing.. That if you're actively getting annoyed or frustrated over the systems set in place, then you may need to take a break.

There'll always be more houses out there, waiting to be picked up. You're not doing yourself any favours by driving yourself into insanity.

And if thats the point you wanted to get across you shouldve said that instead of putting words in my mouth or interpreting without asking what I meant exactly. Thats all.
You make a fair point honestly.
But I dont agree that its not an all or nothing cause it is if you arent lucky. You have a better shot the more time you put into these buuut that does come with a risk.
Me personally? Ive said screw housing because in my eyes its not designed to benefit anyone that doesnt already own (ie you can relocate at will with no cooldown and screw others who could have been there for hours waiting). Its the only thing is this game that you can put loads of time into and come out with literally nothing.
Instanced housing is the ONLY fix in my eyes. More wards (ie. Ishgard) is just another band aid....
Hell id be happy if they made apartments shareable lol Id abandon the housing forum and never return
