We are in very clear DESPERATE need for more quarters. With these recent playercounts, it is clear that there simply is not enough quarters. Everywhere is always full and it takes weeks to even find availability at all. We got those new quarters in Sibayad but they did not seem to lighten the load much, especially since a lot of characters cannot even safely live there, which to me really goes to show that there is a problem and we really are struggling to have enough houses.
Guildhouses are unheard of and nicer houses simply never are available. (understandably! People get nice places and want to keep them because chances of ever getting another nice quarter are slimmer by the day with these numbers.)
I just want to throw out here the frustration many of us are likely feeling. Getting a really cool place to live and then decorating it is one of my favorite things about Arelith (I play the Sims just to decorate houses, I live for this stuff.) So, inability to find a cool quarter or guildhouse for my friends is a big part of my enjoyment that we miss out on. I am sure it is the same for many others. I do believe that more quarters, especially guildhalls for groups, would even be an incentive for people to stick around and keep the numbers up!
I hope we can see some expansion to the available quarters.
