Why is the random purchase timer up to 24 hours rather than 8-12 hours?

A lot of people don't get that housing has (and will continue) to be used in RMT, and SE has been fighting that battle for a long time. The timer is an anti-RMT measure... but its effectiveness is debatable.

Interesting to see you admit this finally.

It's not much of a deterrent at all. In the place of rampant RMT going on before, there's still rampant RMT going on, and now a flourishing bot underground going on at the same time. Which is more RMT, because these people are paying the bot developer actual money to be able to use it.
