Housing Walls

[KhudusQestir]

if only we had instance housing. Then we wouldn't have to worry about our neighbors.

And this is why I bought the medium and small next to my FC house, so I don't have to worry about eyesore neighbors too close by. Cheers.

OP is in a medium arranged in a way that they have a long stretch of courtyard all to themselves from the front. They are harassing the other player about a small's rooftop that is partially hidden by the marketboard across that courtyard. That's it. Part of a rooftop. The rest of the small house is entirely out of view.

Meanwhile I have that problem as well on Large Shirogane, but it's whatever

i do not really agree with op. it is what it is, i would never dream of /telling or bothering anyone because of their house's wall. i've had my share of moogle walls nextdoor.

chilling coincidence though, my situation was/is with Mist 15/14, so it is eyesore rooftop i am futureproofin for, too. the medium at 14 had owner before i relocated my alt there after the house went to autodemo. former neighbor's house was nice, so it did not bother me and when it became free i decided to secure that it would never bother me in the future.

For those harassing me for having an opinion that many others share, I've reported the posts. You used to not be able to mix and match housing exteriors, for the very reasons that I've listed. People wanted the aesthetic. I can wish that didn't change, and wish that the change would be reverted. Or wish for instanced housing so that I don't have to look at it, but others can still have it: And then everyone is happy.

I haven't harassed anyone, I made a post on a forum, with an opinion. Multiple people share that opinion? I'm not surprised. I stick by my guns. I think the changes need to be reverted, and the paissa walls, carbuncle walls, moogle walls, Gingerbread walls be turned into special walls that fit the aesthetic of the housing in the game and not such a trolly, gaudy, and tacky eye sore.

I can be disheartened all I want by having no choice but to look at Shirogane houses in Ishgard out of my front door. Other people can feel sad that they have to stare at a carbuncle house, or a moogle house, or a Gingerbread house next door. Yeah, we can have opinions you don't agree with - and we don't deserve whatever this is, because we have an opinion you don't share. But kudos to the dozen people who got reported for bullying in this thread. Ridiculous.

Except for, you know, the owner of that house you've been harassing ingame.

We also know this is you because you've made the smart decision to out yourself on that twitter post and have made other tweets that have direct tie-ins with several characters from your Free Company.

If any forum moderators or even GMs see this, I implore you to stop this person from harassing others over their choice of housing style. It's actually pathetic.

They should never had designed the Shirogane Castle Walls skin to be significantly taller than any other housing skin combination (though the new Highland roofs come close to matching them).

Fortunately my personal and my FC plots are in positions where no neighboring plot can block the view I'm interested in regardless of skin used.

No one's been bullying you here.

I don't know the truth of the claims that you've been bullying others so I'm staying out of that particular argument.

But I can tell you that the more you keep reporting others for trivial things under false pretenses ("they're harassing/bullying me!"), the less likely GMs and moderators are going to pay attention to your tickets. Then what will you do when you have a legitimate issue that requires their assistance and you can't get a response?

Here's a truth you're neglecting to add into your post: the housing skins in your screenshot are not the Hingan exterior fixtures. They're the Shirogane Castle Walls, a specialty skin much like the Paissa, Moogle, Cafe, etc. There was never a restriction on where you could use the Shirogane Castle Walls.

Even if SE reverted the change allowing use of the district themed exterior fixtures, you'd still be starting at those Shirogane Castle Walls.

Learn to live with it. Set up your outdoor furnishings to block your view of their roofs from your house yard. Once you're standing in the common area of a ward, you have no say over what the view can be like.

Move to plot 11 and stare at the snowy area in front of your house. No one forced you to pick that location.

My FC house is plot 11 and I love it - nothing to block my view of the entire ward when I'm sitting on the side and I'd be able to chat with anyone playing in the snowman park (sadly haven't seen anyone doing it yet - great neighborhood feeling, YoshiP).

Doubt the OP would be happy with it since it's only a small, not a medium or large.
