    I think the bigger problem in general is that it isn't a reasonable solution to ask someone in the OP's position to simply move. IRL, I've had bad neighbors and I chose to move. It cost me a pretty penny to do it, but I'm much happier for it. And that is in the current housing situation that this country is in...

    Housing is rarely available... and no amount of currency can fix that problem due to the nature of housing in this game. So, moving to a different plot to get away from the "nuisance" isn't really an option.

    It is an option, though a poor one because it can mean transferring to another world that has available housing as the OP has done.

    In a way, housing in this game is a victim of the game's success. A smaller stable population would work well with a ward system. Wards don't have the flexibility needed for growing populations not to mention the demand it creates for more hardware to handle the need for more wards.

    It's ironic that the instancing system that would solve demand problems sits neglected in the background because players are forced to navigate the ward gatekeeping system to get access to the instanced part of housing (the house interior). Remove the gatekeeping system (freeing the server resources it requires) and things would improve greatly. No more arguments over neighbor decor choices while still being able to freely visit other player's housing.

    If the rumored features of Housing Mirage come to pass and they apply to apartments as well as houses, we could see a true positive shift at last.
