    It's typically RMT, via Discord. I've had a house since it was released, so I shouldn't give a damn but I do. Ward housing has failed, imo SE should expand on IS and make the cabin there fully customizable. I'm not sure if it's possibly but if so it would go a long way to easing housing demand.

    I fully expected this to happen when they released Empyreum. So about two weeks before housing dropped, we were informed that bidding FC members had to be 30 days old with the FC. So while that meant that the first lottery was mostly legit FCs, every lottery after that would be littered with shell FCs that did the grinding necessary to level multiple shell FCs to the proper rank to buy up other houses in the wards. This was all made possible by the fact that SE set the bar too low for FCs to buy coupled with SE allowed the first 18 wards to be FC only when these wards were released.

    Unfortunately, this has been happening on Excalibur for quite a while. I knew about this sort of thing since prior to transferring several years ago.

    Playerbase: "Wtf, they are locking down the whole ward!"

    SE: "They are paying how many accounts a month?! Very nice!"

    Considering when IS launched people were complaining about being unable to load into their houses, the IS are instances on the housing server.. so SE could do instance houses but have chosen not to do so.. probably to keep that sub-money from demo timer when it resumes

    The first round of housing was broken due to the winner is 0 bug. Those that made the shell FCs had plenty of time to jump into the first actual round of houses

    What is against forum rules is "naming and shaming" though. I advise you remove the names from your post.
    Found the person abusing the housing system.

    Many who are making solo FC's are doing nothing more than buying FC housing as a personal they're not buying up entire wards. This is certainly the fault of SE for creating the incentive for people to do so with their ridiculous FC/Private split on the new housing wards. They do give up their right to join a legitimate FC however so it's not necessarily a win/win situation.

    In addition there are those of us who create small personal FC's to be able to share a house with our alts (and in my case a few select friends) given the inane decision to not allow alts the right to use a mains house.

    Naming should be avoided, yes, and I doubt these individuals feel any shame, so it's not like it would do any good anyway. Either way, I find it extremely hard to defend people like that. Are they breaking any rules? Technically not, but it's still a jerk move, especially when hoarding a very limited resource. And yes, I view anyone doing this as a jerk.

    Carby houses are always pretty



    But there is also a candy haus...




    Does your "wife" have a house/FC in the ward, or has only just noticed what the rest of us already know of? SE love people who subscribe multiple accounts?
