Why are we allowing sprouts to bid on houses at all

[Lecru]

This shouldn't be a thing that's allowed. At all. Period. I've seen three to four sprouts running around to houses. ALL with only up to 70 or 80 level, in an FC made 4 months ago. With only themselves in the FC. Clearly an alt character or somebody that's either loaded on cash and wants to try and get multiple houses or somebody new who has bought gil. This new system is wild

Also let me add. There are also NEW FC's with nothin gbut sprouts that were made after people found out the rules. Therefore allowing them to work the system further.

As they say, don't hate the player, hate the game.

But really, I don't take issue personally with sprouts having a house. Housing is fluff content, and honestly it should be available to everyone who wants it, whether or not they're new to the game.

My only hope at this point is that the new system creates such a massive backlash that they're forced to raze the wards and create a decent housing option for everyone (not happening, but the dream is nice).

Won't happen. Ever. It would create far more drama and issues for those that have spent money than it would solve. You can't value how much somebodies plot is worth if you raze everything and give out an amount.

And it's clear it isn't a "Sprout" thing. Just more people taking advantage of a system to get away with it. But idk. I guess whatever SE wants at this point

[Nihility]

if you meet the requirements I don't see why not. Sprout's aren't like a lower class of player
I imagine you need a paid account to buy a house anyways

if quitter's get the houses they'll just go back up on the market after a while anyways

[Lecru]

So you were okay with entire wards being bought up by FC's or people with the same name?

Because with your logic. Those were also all separate accounts. Yet it caused a wild fire through the community

Free Trial players cannot even hold more than 300K Gil at one moment, so yeah only paid accounts can apply for a home.

You do realize that a sprout says absolutely nothing about the player?

You do realize that alt account plot sniping or massing a large amount of alt accounts together to amass plots is no different than when somebody did it to an entire ward and people complained, leading to multiple changes, correct?

That has nothing to do with what I said.
