SE need to stop this!

[DeNada]

I don’t see how implementing a monthly fee for owning a house is going to fix this issue unfortunately. It will only affect casual players, the people that can afford to purchase entire wards won’t have a gil problem due to boting, it won’t stop them whatsoever.

Yeah, which is why there's suggestions to only tax hoarders who own more than 1 personal and 1 FC house per world per account.

In that case, the casual players will not be taxed and unaffected while hoarder behavior will be disincentived if they are heavily taxed (Perhaps 50% of house value per month since if it's too low, it's not much of a deterrent) on any houses above the limit.

And in addition, if submersible loot is nerfed in such a way that it is not sufficient to cover the housing tax, that would even further discourage players to engage in hoarding behaviour.
