My FC has gone from 30 players online everyday to 1 or 2 online every day. So this idea is basically punish those who take a break even harder than the current housing system does, and give houses to those who play and feel entitled to one a better chance. It also forces FC's to constantly recruit for fear that members may leave, or take breaks and cause the FC to lose there house.

Making more small tweeks to a broken housing system just makes it a more broken housing system. Everyone needs to hold out and see what island sanctuary ends up being and just chill. The housing situation is likely to never change, it sucks but if you feel you are being cheated out of content or paying a sub and not getting the full benefit of the game, than quit until it's fixes, which is likely never.
Yoshi P has already let us know to lower our expectations on the Private islands. Indicating he knows what the consumers want but is not willing to deliver. I would love for Private Islands to be a success but I think he wants it more to be a Lord of Verminion type of thing which is not what we want. Sort of like FFXV promising cool VR shooting content and what did they do? Focus on the aspect less then 1% of players have trophies for....fishing.

Square Enix is famous for under delivering unless there is an emergency. I'm still shocked they completely tore down FFXIV 1.0 and remade the game.
