    I am still pretty new to the forums, Only really making an account today, but I would like to make a request.
    Wynncraft is a pretty big map with a lot of well build cities and an abundance of space in between cities. Sometimes there are little houses here and there and I would like those houses to be utilized. I propose that players are able to rent (a limit of one house per player) those "in between" houses. As to not pollute Wynncraft with even more houses, or make the world crowded, I think it should only be a few houses in between cities.
    Players should be able to rent a house for a reasonable amount. Just to be fair, I think that the price should be permanent and not a bidding thing (Me being one of them, I know not a lot of people have stacks and stacks of liquid emerald) Depending on the house size, and the location, prices should fair. For reference, If you look on the Wynncraft map, The small house that is bordering Nivla Forest to the east (If you zoom in, it is right under the yellow "province of Wynn text) should be priced pretty low at maybe 20 EB a month. This is because it is pretty tucked away, small, and far from any cities. Now, Take the house right outside of Detlas, to the west, It would be priced at a mighty 1 LE a month or more because it is right outside of a city and very large. Of course, Not all houses should be rentable, but quite a few should because so many people play Wynncraft.
    Also, I personally don't do server work and don't know how hard it would be to do, but I think that the exterior of the house should be permanent, as to not ruin the aesthetic of Wynncraft. I think that houses should serve a purpose. I mean, No one wants to just buy a house for it to be there. So, I think that houses should serve as a trophy hall and storage space, maybe even an auction hall or restaurant. If the player desires, I think they should be able to but (in game) chests or 'trophy cases' from a home merchant. Trophy cases could hold quest items or maybe even weapons that look good. It could be like an item frame, But one that is see-through and showcases the 3-d effects of weapons. A home merchant should also sell carpets, fences, and others decoration items for a house. All of the building aspects should revolve around the fact that the owner of the house should be able to build only inside their property limits.
    (FOR THE TD;LR PEOPLE)
    Those who were too lazy to read this, Basically, I want the houses in between cities (the random little ones) to be able to be rented out for storage and decoration by players. Reasonably priced according to the placement and size of course.
    Honestly, This is just an idea. Other people can add to my ideas and give some other ideas on how to improve! :)

    Alright, cool. I would like a place to store my items, and this is a neat way to do so.
    Also, add a tl;dr, as well as a poll.

    Maybe an enderchest can be placed in some attics, cellars, cottages, ... to make it kind of feel like it could be your home.

    For some reason, people of the wynncraft forums despise housing threads. Either they want other things to be done first, they are too stubborn to see a good suggestion, or do not want the game to move in that direction. I actually remember during one of Grian's gavel streams he said something about player housing, and how he would be willing to add it when everything was done and finished, and they found a proper way to add it. The suggestion is good, but player housing might be accepted by the community when they finish the main storyline.

    What do you mean by to stubborn to see a good suggestion? Many people that are against player housing (myself included), have provided reasonable arguments Against it no?

    Yes, In some ways those arguments are invalid after a certain period of time. Like how some people have said that it would be too much because of the current projects but once those projects are finished, there might be time. There are a few other reasons that are ridiculous but some are good reasons. All that I am saying is that is is a pretty cool idea.

    Reading thread........ Apartments?..... sounds like housing............ KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!


    Jokes aside as you are new to the forums... you should know that ANYTHING related to housing is 100% going to be hated on and spitted on no matter on how good you THINK your points are. People will always find a way to trash on it. My suggestion is to abandon all these types of housing ideas

    What are you going to store? Items? We have banks for that.

    Housing ideas are like satans spawn. The creator is the puppet, forcefully making these threads with the wrong idea.

    I didn't mean to target you if that is what you thought I was doing. You would fall under the category of not wanting the game to go in that direction in my opinion. Most probably would fall under this, I'm trying to target people who feel they have to say no due to peer pressure. When a descent amount of the community sees housing as something not benificial to the game, some might try to blend in with this crowd. If someone provides reasoning like you did, however, that is completely fine. In hindsight, maybe people being "stubborn" was a bad choice of words on my part, because it seems these people just try to blend in with the crowd. (Sorry for the wall of text lol)

    Oh I see, the biggest reason I don't want housing is like you said I don't want the game to go in the direction of plots and housing, cause it's just not how I see Wynn as a server.

    Yall need to stop shutting down ideas based on previous similar ideas
    ________________________________
    As to your idea, I suggest bumping up the price a bit.
    Changing the interior might be a bit tricky but I guess the devs have to decide on that.
    And as to the storage. is it an ender chest?

    Shutting down housing threads is a tradition, at least some of them use decent arguments and reply politely
    Even if its bad feedback, it helps

    its a bad tradition we need to break, the only reason a suggestion should be automatically shut down is if an admin shuts it down or if its unreasonable

    Putting it bluntly, the community in Wynncraft can be very toxic and rude, as shown on Bulix's thread yesterday, and I think that Marco has a valid point. I do not think that that is the main reason for housing threads being quickly rejected though. I really don't see what is so bad about housing threads rn, but I think that people just hate on them because it has become normal. And if you respond saying that people spamming housing threads makes them so bad, then I'll get triggered. People spamming housing, or buff threads doesn't devalue their ideas, it just makes them more common.

    while i don't particularly like the idea, I would be open if they just decided to add it. However, they're continually shut down because of the sheer volume of em. They've been kinda spammed for a while, a bunch of people make the same suggestion over and over. My reasons for not wanting it were lag, wasted development time, and wasted servers/space. Now if they had finished everything then I would be more open. However, they haven't, and I'd rather the team spend their time on new content rather than a glorified bank.
