Auto-demolition needs to be re-enabled immediately.

[Freedom4556]

Housing auto-demolition should be re-enabled immediately. The lottery system will become inoperative within a few cycles if it is not. Patch 6.11a disabled the afk logout, so by the developers' own measures the server queues are stable.

Auto-demo was left off far too long during the pandemic until it became very apparent that it was going to be a long-term issue that the world at large is still dealing with. The "current world situation" as the NA team put it, is showing no signs that it will be any different, tragic as that is.

Leaving auto-demo off for nebulous lengths of time destroys all the hard work that has been put into overhauling the housing system.

Edit: I read a proposal on the Japanese side of the forum that demolition be selectively re-enabled for all datacenters except Europe. If technically possible this could be a very useful compromise.
