Housing Demolitions / Housing Concerns

[Aethoren]

I did a small tour of the ward I live in. At least 26% of the houses have owners who are still level 80 and I assume haven't played since shadowbringers. On top of those there are the clearly used for RMT houses (Bare house, teleporter, house named after the ward/plot, 1 person owner of fc)

Thoughts:
1. Yes it is impossible to provide for everyone, but this could be roughly be 8 more people per ward of happy home owners

2. Yes, I feel for the suffering of ukraine, and hate what Russia is doing to them, but one look at a conflict tracker shows 30 active wars/conflicts.

3. Did square perhaps break the housing demolition utility when they implemented the new lottery feature? Maybe, but no way to prove it either way. Speculation.

4. Not having it turned on makes the lives of RMT sellers of properties lives easier. They don't have to worry about wasting time popping over into their hundreds of houses.

5. Please, can we get rid of the walk of shame to get your bidding refund? It's a kick in the face having to walk back there, and see someone else in your lost home. I had someone who won the plot waiting by the refund board, clapping and cheering at people who came back for it.

Sincerely a homeowner, looking out for my friends who have to stare at 2 abandoned houses next to mine daily.

Yoshi did say in the Live Letter LXIX, I think, that they want people to return to the placard. Mog-mail would collapse under the strain.

Mog mail currently doesn't accommodate amounts over 1 million gil, anyway, if memory serves.
And I believe that's a cap that the devs have no intention of messing with.

Please explain how this is clear to you.

WOW, I am not sure I have read something this selfish, mean hearted, and arrogant all at the same time in my life. I'm not even sure where to start, and for the purpose of mankind, I hope you are simply a troll meant to stir.

A. 26% of a wards is 15.6 houses, math may not be your strong point.
B. https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker listed as the only impact "conflict tracker" online, unfortunately shows only how the effect of world situations is an 'Impact on the U.S.' listed on every little dot. I fail to see how (example) 'conflict in Myanmar' would match equivalency to the last time someone threatened war to any country who stood in their way (ie. Russia moving into Ukraine) I'm going to bet the 146M people in Russia, and the 43M people in Ukraine, wouldn't bet a donkeys wet fart on your statistics, and don't care about turning housing demo back on dear. However well done, you exceed at self-entitlement.
C. Willing to bid on (because I know how) the "friends who stare at abandoned houses daily" beside the "friends", are really just your alts.
D. Take your walk of shame, you deserve it, In every aspect from mathematics, to global conflict. You have an American stamp of approval.

THIS is the meanest, most selfish, most arrogant thing you've ever read? In your life? This post about video game housing? Is this your first day on the internet?

They might be a young person. It's odd though.
