Private House Relocation - Help! I won but it won't let me relocate!

[Sotaris]

Yeah, Moogle is super crowded, which is why I'm so eager to take the plot. After this result period, the odds of any private plots being available are very low, odds of winning said plot even more so. I was 1 bid in 15 this time, and that's only going to get worse.

I can't move this character to another world, as my friends and bonded are all settled here with private houses and FCs etc, and a wider circle of friends I am reluctant to leave. As much as I love housing, the social circle here comes first for me. Which is on me, I guess. Comes at a cost.

That's understandable. My Old FC had broken apart and people I knew and played with had quit or gone awol on discord and whatnot so, it wasn't hard to take the plunge and transfer to Sagittarius and make my own FC and whatnot. It's ironic to see how empty the plots are though. Like my FC house is the only house right now in Ishgard lol.

Maybe will populate more soon, or most people just want specific plots in Mist and Shirogane.

Just to update you all!

I waited until the last minute as I was really hoping the devs would come up with an answer. The GMs were in touch during the last hour but said they couldn't help, that they couldn't promise any compensation if I relinquished, and that it might not work. And that I had to wait for the devs.

No way I could just let it lapse without trying; I would've always wondered if it would work....and it did! I relinquished my plot in Goblet and was then able to buy the plot in Shirogane as normal. Phew!

Obviously, I've lost out on a few thousand gil but it was absolutely worth it!

I have recorded the whole thing (including showing the bug again and that all my alts have no property) and will upload it asap in case it helps others.

Thanks again to all who tried to help! <3

Damn, I would never dared to risk my current house, but glad it worked out.

Hope they can patch this bug.
