Good reasons for housing:

1. You can impress others by buying nice houses on one of you favorite spots. The more successful you are in the game, the better houses you can afford.

2. A place to store extra items. Maybe a place to buy smithing tools if you\'re a smith..etc.

3. A place to set on fire if you despise someone!!

I would want something reasonably sized... preferably on the outskirts of a major city.

For the inside, I would like a sleeping area, a kitchen/dining room w/stove, a comfy living area with possibly a large chest that I could store all my valuable belongings in.

Not much emphasis is needed on the interior of the house.  Mainly, I just want it in a decent wooded location.  (ie. shady grove near natural water source)

Ofcourse, I would need plenty of flowers and vegetation to spruce things up a bit.  

*daydreams*

Ahhh... that would be my ideal house.  ;)

Have you seen that save place in Vice City near the motorcycle club? it\'s a small building on the roof.
That\'s exactly how I want my mansion to be in PS 8)

I want my house to be in the wild, in the trees or in the city on a high tower somewhere. So I am able to overlook the entire city with my keen eye!

I like the idea of houses. While they are not needed niether are video games or mmorpgs for that matter. Wherther or not they are needed isnt the point so much as wherther the rp and coolness facter is enough to go through the troublke of programming it in.

On the star wars mmorpg they have houses and it works. Because of this entire cities of players have been created and you have a place to find your friends.

I\'m for houses.

I dont really plan on having a house. I\'ll end up spending my time roaming around to all corners of Yliakum. Dont think i\'ll be in one place long enough to bother with a house. A storage place of some kind would be useful though...

*makes mental note not to visit toadhead*

I\'d like to carve my home from the living trunk of a giant tree, well, my inn actually... the Tyger\'s Tail Inn. and everyone can come by night or day to get sloshed!

free firestarters all around

1) meeting place
2) a place to store items
3) to role play
4) help with skills
5) a shop
6) to escape people who constantly harass you
7) midway point for trade runs
8) storage for your pets
9) to show off your uber leet items
10) to occupy yourself when bored

theres 10 reasons why houses are good
you could also have a nice welcome mat telling people to take their boots off and leave them by the door before entering for a nice source of income if you know what im getting at

EDIT: must include how i want my house

a small tower about 3 floors high and kind of 90 degree triange shape with a very steep slope. all edges would be rounded and walls would be made of a metallic substance. would look to be of elven design and would be placed near a small cliff (im talking 7-10 meters here)

lol

1.) To get status, everybody will think: \"wow.. an own house\"

2.) To store items and pets

3.) Hide yourselve when someone is searching for oyu

4.) A safe place were you can rest abit, and just to do some things that are privetely

5.) Please to meat others, when someone want to meat you, you could say \"meet you at my house\", (or meat me at my office when you build an office lol)

6.) You could make a shop of your house, so you can sell some stuff that you don\'t need

7.) You can train at your house

8.) If you have a guild and you make it your guild house, guild members can visit this guild house. You can train together, talk with eachother, have fun and ofcourse make plans like \"let\'s attack (...)\" etc.



It\'s just cool and ofcourse very usefull.

Damn Toadhead, you upset me, I was thinking I\'d be the first to suggest a boathouse.

I\'d want something simple and subtle, a treehouse, in a forest, perhaps perched amond four or so trees, with an entrance through a hatch in the middle by rope ladder, I\'d invite people around and have dwarf tossing contests.
seriously though, I think that housing should be mandatory, every race given a \'shelter\', tents made necessary for travel, and if you can afford it, buy a house.

Can I have a tiny little abode on top of the tower that leads out of the dungeon? It would be a insgle room, with lots of windows \'room with a view\'.
This is of course, until I can afford a humongous citadel to build near hydlaa plaza and make it some god awful colour, I want the HYDLAA EYESORE!

I like Red Jelly Beans!
