Pay your Rent or loose your home

One thing I did not like about Archeage...if you went on an extended vacation (I believe the time limit was 14 days) and you didn't log in to pay your rent, you lost your home (max prepay of rent). On the flip side, we don't want people to hold sandbox land that don't ever log in. What is an acceptable length of time we should be allowed to prepay our rent, so we don't loose our Home in town, or our Freehold? Apartments, as they are instanced should just be a lockout until we pay our rent, but sandbox homes?

Archeage was 5 pre-pay of 1 week, so on top of the current week that makes it 6 weeks ahead of you.. I think on a game like AOC where spots of freeholds will be even more valuable, having people able to prepay for more than a month can only hurt the game and fake a value on the real estate because of inactive players.

My father passed away on New Years Eve. I spent at least 6 weeks arranging initially funeral, then estate, and other family legal issues. I'm still waiting on some rulings from various authorities. As well as grieving of course.

There's no way I could have spent any significant amount of time on a game. Maybe enough to log in and pay taxes, I don't know. But that's just me. Maybe others could, or would need to.

Thanks Animus for this Feedback. While i am aware that Ashes can probably not care for such Problems for every Players if they arise,

i won't act like i haven't read this because of You and i notice the sour taste. But i can only repeat myself regarding one way to this.

People - " i " - am no Exception - will need to band together in for/like an Example hold a Freehold. If you would be the Owner - and i would be your Friend,

i would of Course give my best to support You during these incredibly difficult times. I am aware i have no Power if an overwhelming Force would destroy our Node and make your Freehold a Free-Plunder-Place to ransack and destroy and to overtake.

But i would never leave You. It's just no my Style. I would forgive if others would leave me when my own Parents would die and i would have a heavy time - but know i would never leave Anyone who this would happen to.

Why ?

Because there is just not Reason to. Cruel, painful and hard Times just happen to any of use from time to time. The last Moment in my World of Verra will be when i will be no longer physically able to play the Game with my real Body.

Ooff. Did i just made a cringy, heroic-like Comment ? 🤮 🤮 🤮

I just want to give my best. I doubt we will end up together in the same Team, but i will do my best for everyone else who might just end up in the same Position that You just described.
