In case anyone misses it. Auto demo is restarting with the arrival of 5.4.

A couple things to remember:
Tenants do not reset the timer for personal houses, the owner must enter the house.
You must enter the house itself to reset the timer. The outdoor space does not trigger a reset.

One additional note about tenants - while they can't reset the demo timer, the pending demolition will display in their Timers in addition to the owner's timers. If they have a way to contact the owner outside of game, they can remind the owner of the pending demolition in case the owner hasn't received the email notification.

To be honest it would be nice if they just continued to add more wards to accommodate the demand enough so that these timers wouldn't be necessary.

The timers are necessary when people quit or die, the plot can go back to being used by an active player instead of just sitting there being unused for years.

This.

I've owned a house consecutively for 5 years and even I'll say that the moment I stop playing for a long period, my house should be freed up for use by someone who will use it.

This is true, but I think the timers should be more lax, like every 2 or 3 months. If someone does decide to take a long break, drop the game all together, or has died, it's unlikely they'll log in by the 3 month marker. But before then, it could just be a bad month or two financially, so they shouldn't go "punished" (for lack of a better word) for being unable to log in after just one or two months.

Not unless they start actually doing something about the people who have multiple plots on one account. Otherwise those people will just continue to accumulate plots.

With the coming change in administration, we may finally get this damn virus under control. Excellent timing.
