Someone mentioned that it's possible the development team will see the amount of people applying for housing lottery (even tho the massive amount of social media insanity wasn't enough), will cause the team realize what a huge issue the housing market is for people and allocate resources as needed. Over the years I've played, I've seen everything from bald faced lies, dodging, and complete dis-interest from the development team, and when I heard they were going to implement lottery and island sanctuaries (with the hope it's a form of personal customizable space) I came back after a long hiatus.

I'm holding out hope for island sanctuaries. Nothing done around housing that I have seen has done anything but cause every level of grief, drama, people hating each other, bots and dumpster fires.. you name it. I kind of torqued they just leaving it 30 houses with a tiny portion of them being mediums and larges. Allowing players to expand apartments, and adding sharing like houses do would go a REAL long way to address the situation. And for goodness' sake, fix the decorating system. I am so sick of floating crap.
