Housing Lottery Apology Posters

[Dustytome]

I can't see them taking the time to parse through all the data to specify who can buy a poster and an exact amount they have to pay. Probably just a brief message from the npc and a poster for sale at a generic plot price for S/M/L.

They didnt get their houses for weeks, so they get a little something, is this really that big of an issue that its only available for them ?

I was affected by the bug and didn't win. The way it's worded I don't get the posters either because I don't have anything to really return. That's pretty crappy since there were others affected by the bug who also had their gil in limbo. :/

Whoever is in charge of housing in this game specifically goes out of their way to make it as soul draining and infuriating as possible

People don't need an apology for getting a free house, they already got the apology- it's the freaking free house lol.

Yep, exactly.

If they don't open these up to everyone who wants to "donate" the required amounts of gil, the resell price of these pictures is going to be insanely high.

You assume they will be sellable and won't end up as "Market Prohibited"

Hyperbolic given the advantage of legacy, though if it was like sub for 4 years get legacy I would not even blink (not care).

I don't feel your example is logical. Especially given the voluntary nature of this situation. Do you want your gil and not care for a poster... then dont trade, if you do.. trade.

Don't mind them, they just kneejerk to the defense of exclusivity, this time clearly without really thinking about the situation I guess???? Free house just doesn't mean anything I guess? /shrug

I'm sure they will be, but there are easy ways to get around that restriction.

You people do realize that once they pay the NPC, it's no longer a free house - and they are just getting the pictures for voluntarily paying for them, right?

What a vicious circle argument you are making up yourselves. So they pay - then they get more decor that really is small, inconsequential to the bigger picture and frankly, such a small token of an apology it's really questionable to even make it worth it.

Regardless of if you were affected or not - you didn't win the lottery pick. Which means you weren't robbed of a house - you flat out didn't win.

It doesn't really bother me, but I do feel that those who were affected by this bug (and won their house in the end) were compensated enough. They have a house, which is more than most of the player base can say. Anything more is probably unnecessary. The items themselves aren't an issue. I just question the need for this to happen at all. It makes me scratch my head in slight confusion.
