While I can sympathize with this, I still feel that a game which is dependent on the servers provided by the developer and for which you have to pay a monthly fee is a poor choice of canvas for something you want to keep around. The rules for auto-demolition have been in place since very early on and they are publicly known and the same for everyone. As you said yourself, the problem is that there isn't enough houses for everyone. Do you really think keeping houses reserved for inactive people for a longer duration is going to help?
