TL;DR at bottom
First off Hello I am Rin from Siren.
When I first started playing in January(played a few months before only 20 levels
but couldn't really get into it) I lucked out and was able to get a house on my first
try and maybe 1 other person was there for a few hours while we were clicking.
At first I didn't realize how lucky I was or just how wonderful it was to be able to snag
a house in the game. Just thought "my first try and wow I got one, that other guy will
find one soon too".
This was before I knew that it was an RNG timer from 30min-24hours
I was sadly mistaken, as it is now my 6 consecutive month playing straight because
I fell in love after getting out of ARR. I have spent the last month trying to find a plot
for a FC that I started for my friend who is about to get his last treatment.
Every single plot that I have went to has had 10+ players clicking, at one point I was alone
for 2 hours before people showed up only to lose that house to a person who showed up not
even a full hour before after being there for 14 hours clicking every few mins.
This is just tortuous and distasteful. Enough to make someone go crazy from seeing
"This plot is not available for purchase" for the 8000th time and just to lose it. I have spent
that last 3 days just heavily depressed because it doesn't matter how much you try for a
plot of land because it takes one click from someone else at one particular second to
send you down a rabbit hole.
All in all it is just Mentally draining to be playing a game to stand there for x amount of time
clicking something with an army of other people clicking it too.
I know that I shouldn't feel this way cause its a game and I am blessed in real life given my
situation, even compared to other people I talked to who tell me they have spent a few years
plot hunting and still are empty handed. These are just my thoughts that I am posting.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Short Version:
I went mentally insane trying to get a plot of land for a month.
3 days ago I spent 14 hours to lose it to someone who showed
not even an hour before it went for sale.

Question
Now that I am done crying and made this baby post, what are your ideas, how could you fix
the housing crisis in this game if you could?
All answers are welcomed. If you have a "Solution" in mind, please share.
p.s.
I am aware of why they implemented the RNG timer, primary RMT and those people who would
make multiple characters and buy up plots or have a guild control every single plot.
