Do you really thinks SE never thought of that?
How difficult is it to simply asking your friends to make an alt to a solo FC to bypass that laughable requirement?
I also can simply lock the entrance and just decorate the garden with few pieces of items and claiming i am a minimalist
What are you going to do about that?
How difficult is it to have two active subscripted accounts?
Let's be real, right now if I go to McDonald for a simple meal it cost higher than FF14's monthly subscription
That makes all your "ideas" pointless isn't it?
Not really no as these ideas are a suggestion, and as I said I'm happy to brainstorm and talk about things.
There is no 100% way to stop this unless they really knuckled down and added too many restrictions completely but then that would make the game rather tedious and as another mentioned which they should look into, doing something like that would defiantly make it not alt-friendly at all.

Most likely SE has thourght about it, but we wouldn't know would we
For the FC part, that came to mind instantly; never said there wouldn't be work-arounds but making it more of an obstacle stops the majority from abusing as simply.
And true on the design, no issues at all there to be fair, I don't think thats the focus here.

If you have ideas or something please do share, but as it stands I still feel this would be a good way to help prevent and/or delay people from abusing the system as much as they currently are.
You saying its fine for someone to own an entire ward?
You saying its fine for someone to mass make FCs to do the same?
If not then why not try and help think of ways around this which would benefit all; and that's exactly what I'm trying to do here.

I said this wouldn't appeal to everyone, but that wasn't my goal.
My goal is to try and suggest and discuss a solution to make it more fair than it is now.
