Limit housing bids for FCs

[BloodiedTongues]

My perspective is from someone who started on Maduin almost 3 years ago rather then being someone who transferred here, so I never had the benefit of having other people to bring over from another world, or having people to return to when I wanted to data center travel. Despite being a longtime local, I've yet to benefit personally from being here this whole time.

I actually like your perspective a lot (same for the other local to Dynamis in the prior comment), and it is very enlightening, since the local perspective isn't one I'd considered at first. For me and the two I moved DC's with, we did it out of the necessity to escape from bad actors, one of us wanted to finally get a house since the lotto had been awful to him since he started the game, and we just wanted to kind of vibe! I found that the main reason (from mine and aformentioned friend's experiences) that we were on Crystal was just because of potential RP and/or FC stuff, I moved from Diabolos to Mateus in my early days due to someone telling me to - and I did the same to one of my friends, so I'm more comfortable in presuming that to be the case for most people.

As well, it seems there's a lot of RPers here if the constant advert spam in party finder is any indication, but I don't RP myself, so I constantly feel like I ended up on the "wrong" data center despite having been here longer than most of said venues have been operating.

Regrettably the PF advert spam is a plague regardless of DC. I RP and usually it's just a lot of the same.. flavour? of RP (clubs/taverns/cafe - to which, no shade to any of those, they all have their place. Clubs however can be very oversaturated).

At best, I've considered "lending out" the housing space to others on Maduin wanting to make a venue but they lack the funding/haven't met the requirements yet with the added possibility of a "double venue" due to the houses close proximity, but I imagine most people would rather own houses wholesale for something like that, so my houses remain vacant outside of bells/NPCs/jukebox because I'm not adept at interior/exterior design whatsoever.

I've not seen too many people lending out spaces, and if that's your perogative I'd say go for it. I do understand your perspective though, and maybe the rose tinted glasses will get old quickly for me, but I've enjoyed myself thus far d(Q~Q)

Simple fix - Only the FC master can place bids.
