Would a raffle system be that hard?

This is where it starts getting a little sticky. It's clear that there is a significant portion (not necessarily in number, but necessarily in CLOUT) of the game community (at least outside of Japan -- and I'd be interested to find out if the JP servers are having the same camping of housing lots the NA and EU servers are having) who is fully embracing of RMT and other cheating mechanisms. At that point, one has to question, especially if you are right in any portion of RMT being a necessary part of the game, the presence of the Special Task Force.

To me, if Square-Enix is unwilling to actually deal with the bot and RMT problem (and this is going to include getting Legal into the countries where these companies work), they then need to assume that the only real way to do that content is to pay for it with real money -- at which point, welcome to all future housing on the Mog Station.

Restrict to 3 clicks per day, per plot, which means would make it harder for bots and autoclickers and more to acquire houses using unfair advantages towards others.

Also spam/flood of using same function over and over again, technically also is a violation of the ToS.

Their entire operation is a violation of the ToS. There's a problem though: There's clearly a portion of the community which actively supports them -- and not all of them are gilbuyers.

Restrict to 3 clicks a day, I got a new neighbor myself... that just bought his house when the time ran out, there was not people flocking it or anything, so it is a myth, it is because people want desired places I guess like Shirogane, which really is cramped and boring compared to the 3 others, got myself house plot 15 in the mist, have had it for years.... and before that plot 30 and before that plot 22....

Good luck. I think you'd be better off just putting housing on the Mog Station.

You're already seeing significant degradation of play on some servers (mine being one), almost-certainly from botters-scripters.
