    Now, I know most of you hate these kind of suggestion with every fiber of your being and to be completely honest I don't really see the point of adding housing myself. this is more as to show you guys that it can be added.

    The house will consist of an island that will be positioned off map, to get to it you will have to talk with a sky ship/hot air balloon/v.s.s captain at ahmsord/corkus.
    he will give you a ride to your house in return for a ticket you can buy at a different npc (like the v.s.s tickets).
    to access the ticket merchants you will first have to buy ownership of the island from a real estate office in one of the major cities (selchar, ahmsord, dogovi, eltom and cinfras) the owner ship is a one time payment while the tickets are needed to be bought per visit.

    upon arrival to the island you will be turned invisible (like assassin's vanish) and you wont be able to cast any spells.
    also the entire island will have no pressure plates/wooden trapdoors/buttons/wooden doors. this will enable for everyone to live together in the same island without bumping into each other.

    there will be a couple versions of the island, a sky island, a void island, a sea island, a cave house and a mountain peak.
    each will be accessible by a transport vessel (airship, voidship, v.s.s, dwarven railway, hot air balloon). the ticket price doesn't matter that much as the economy is shit as it is.

    the island will be built with a medium sized house (like the one just outside of detlas) with a garden, lake/spring and a captain with a vessel waiting on your return.
    each island will have a "mailbox" that will have a ender chest stationed +2 blocks off the ground so everyone can access it without blocking each other.
    right next to the house will be a small pub (letvus air base style). inside you will be able to buy a drink from the bartender or speak to one of the drinkers (global player chat will be turned off) and they will tell you some random facts, rumors (like the stuff @Pretzule puts on twitter), and short stories.

    if any of you see and downsides you are welcome to say them and ill find a solution for them.

    This is already a thousand times better than any other housing suggestion as it solves a lot of problems as the space and the money.
    But it might not really work lore wise.

    the easy solution will be giving it as a reward for a quest and let a gm figure it out.
    I propose a real estate office in cinfras/rodoroc/ahmsord/eltom that will give you permission to get to the ticket seller for the vessels.
    the permission will cost emeralds and will be a one time fee wile the tickets will need to be bought per visit.

    I guess we have a miracle on our hands.

    However... The only reason this one works is because it only tries to act like another area in the game. It's just one more location that you can visit in the world of Wynn, which is a very different approach than pretty much every other housing thread ever. It also doesn't request many features, and those that it does are perfectly fine and fair.

    There aren't really any downsides to this, but that's probably because there aren't many upsides to it either. It seems like an unmotivated idea; sure, this would work, and could be added. But why? Other housing threads have bad reasons to add bad features, while this one seems entirely neutral.

    So, in the end; yes, this would work, and yes, this could easily be added. The only thing this suggestion lacks is motivation.

    The only other features I remember from other housing threads is hanging out with friends which is impossible in this suggestion and having more inventory space which is unneeded but easy to implement.
    If there are more features please list them so I can add them to the thread.

    you should add a "Its not perfect but is definetly better than the other housing suggestion "or something like that to the poll
    EDIT: Well that was fast but i meant:
    Its not perfect but is better than the other housing suggestions

    Actually, the lack of features is one of the strengths of this suggestion. Housing usually suffers from an overdose of features.

    The actual content of the suggestion is good as is.

    THE STORY of me and this thread
    "Sees a housing thread"
    Hahaha housing like the 51th time it has been suggested lets see what newbie suggeste-
    "Sees who made the thread"
    WAT?!??!!
    "Looks inside the thread"
    WAT.....A.... GOOD....... HOUSING....... THREAD..........
    "MIND BLOWN"
    "Sees it being doable, and a money sink that works"
    A while later

    (News reporter) "WE HAVE NEW INFO OF THE BRAINBOMB INCIDENT!
    police found that the walls were. Covered. In. Brains. The suspect is a Person called yuno f gasai, and the UNBELIVABLE murder weapon is a good housing thread. Police think of this as related to similar murders across the globe, and think of it as terrorism. ISIS claimed that the murders were too inhumane to be them, but nobody belived them. Gasai is suspected a member of a terrorist organisation, but he claims " it was an accident". Gasai is in trouble so deep even phoenix wright would sucide If he was assiganed to it. The ghost of the victim posted a reply to the thread, meaning it. could be used to track the murderer. More info will come soonTM"

    YES its a shitpost but at least a detailed one

    Well ya it's a good housing thread, because it's not really a housing thread.
    Housing generally implies a player decorated/storage area aspect.
    This is less of a housing thread and more of a nemract's bar on an island somewhere.
    I should go revive my old not-housing housing thread.

    So basically, it's just an off-map location filled with random pre-made buildings in which players can only hang out and talk? This doesn't really seem to have much of a purpose since players can already do that in Cinfras or Deltas and can actually use spells as well as use the global chat so they can be notified by their friends if they need them or something. Sure I guess rumors from Preztule might be cool, but people do that already on the forums and in the global chat so this isn't unique. I find it really odd too that there are no doors or pressure plates because in Wynncraft we can still use them so we wouldn't be separated by each other at all... Also, what's the point then too if nobody can own a house, decorate it, or even store EXTRA items in it? While this isn't the worst housing suggestion I've seen, it lacks a lot of detail such as: How much do the tickets cost to go to this island (this is important to add)? How much does the real estate merchant cost? When you say the player to, "buy ownership of the island" do you mean the WHOLE island (like having access to the whole island) or a specific house on the island? What can we expect these houses to look like other than a "medium-sized" house at each of these places (pics of design, number of floors, rooms, etc.)? Does each player own his or her house, or are there only a set amount of houses on each island? If there are only a set amount of houses, how can you guarantee there will be enough houses for everyone and that it won't overload the server?

    Finally, there just doesn't seem to be any real purpose behind this thread as to why the content team should focus most of their time on this instead of future content like Dern or Fruma or revamping bad quests. All this sounds like a huge undertaking for the builders and GMs, and this suggestion doesn't seem worth it at all if it's just for people to hang out (they can't even use spells).

    I can tell from reading your response that you didn't read through the whole thread :/
    Most of those questions are answered if you read through it

    To be fair I posted something really similar back in 2015
    As everyone is invisible in the same house the doors will flip open and close non stop.
    There isn't a need for extra space.
    As seen with previous suggestions the ct take the concept and change the details a bit, the prices don't really matter as long as there is one.
    Each island has one house and one bar, you get access to the whole island.
    Again, I'm not a builder altho I'll gladly go screenshot the house outside of detlas (if anyone can screenie me a pic of a medium sized house in Wynn that would be great).
    One island per theme, one house per island, everyone is invisible so it doesn't take a lot of space.
    Well the ct does have some unused builds and this shouldn't take too long to implement.
    Nah I'm more like his good looking clone

    This is the only description of the houses:
    I specifically asked for design, number of rooms, and if the house could be edited or decorated in certain ways. That doesn't answer my questions. Ok, you could say they are like the houses outside of deltas, but that still is kinda vague. Also, there are variations of the island listed, but does that mean that every house on those islands are exactly the same to one other? Is it the same house copied and pasted over and over again? A Deltas themed house wouldn't fit the theme of mountain top or the ocean. I want to leave my questions with Yuno, so I'll stop here, but the fact that you didn't answer any of my questions and accusing me of not reading the post makes it seem more like you didn't read my post.
    ________________________________
    Oh so it's more so like a hub world then rather than a place for people to own houses, correct? Sorry if I misunderstood and thanks for clarifying. I guess then the biggest problem is that why should we do this rather than add a bar or something in an already existing place? What makes this better than people hanging out in Deltas or Cinfras, since they are already established hang-outs?

    Of course different themed houses for each island.
    Yea, it's more of a hub world.
    It's better as you can msg and use guild and party chat but global chat is off, so it's great for guild/party events and just to afk/chill while messaging a friend.

    Hmm... Maybe they could be used for community events or guild parties too (just pulled that one out of nowhere)? Since they are off map, they could be customized to fit an event (like a Halloween event).
