Not when they're purported as truth while being spoken from a place of pure bias they're not, given that the individual already owns said property they're telling everyone else to deal with not having and they benefit from its scarcity.

As I said, there's a difference between being able to speak your opinion and it actually holding weight.

My point exactly. They followed the same rules as everyone else. Opinion still valid.
But they lucked out, affecting their perception. Not quite.

Ah, now I see. You take exception to their tone.
Ah, no. It's explicitly what they say and the reasoning and motives behind it.

I really wish people would stop comparing housing to combat roles. Totally different animal there. Apples and oranges.
No, it isn't. We all pay a sub for access to content we can play, the majority of which everyone can should they put in the time and energy to acquire the resources and ability to do so - apart from housing, which can gate someone off indefinitely regardless of what they have or do.

On this we agree. But for the time being, and really since housing was introduced in patch 2.1, Stormpeaks is right. Large houses are a luxury, not everyone is meant to have one. You don't have to like it, but they are correct in that assessment.
This is a perception, founded on a broken housing system they have continuously tried to fix on the cheap as the game has expanded but to no avail, and are now looking at more extensive measures to do so that further counters this point of view.

Have a good one.
Pointing out prejudices you've already admitted to isn't victim-blaming, and you leave yourself open to criticism when you try to advertise what you have to say as fact.
