#### To move, or not to move...

That is the question.
With the new bog houses available, I am tempted to try life down in the fire bogs, because I know that once the new housing rolls out, it seems that living in a 'region' won't be possible considering our houses will be in our imagination or something like that.
Problem is. I'm having issues giving up my Bortola cottage, because I love living in Bortola, and have been in either Rikki Regard or Lorme Rush since I started!
Anxiety over a pixel-house is upsetting.
Thoughts?

- I thought about this, too. Thing is........I decided not to waste my currants on that stuff for now. The flower market is finally dropping off. New houses will be out in about 2 months. Do you really want to deal with moving then moving again?

- That's what I'm not sure about. Because moving... will be a hassle with the millions of bags I have.
  Decisions are hard. I'm happy enough where I am. And I have a friend who lets me use her bog house for herbs when I need, so it's not the matter of the herb garden. Ugh ugh ugh.
  The inability to make a decision probably means I should just stay where I am.

- I suffered the same anxiety over leaving my Besara treehouse for a 50k mansion in Rasana. I did move and I don't regret it but I still miss that house. I didn't have the same anxiety about moving out of the 1500c apartment I was living in first though, that place was depressing.
  This will probably be your last chance to own a firebog house so if you want it get it while you can.

- You'll be moving no matter what in 8 weeks. Why not move now and spend 8 weeks experiencing the bog lifestyle as it was meant to be?

- I suffered from the same anxiety too, so much so that the only solution was to create an alt.
  I actually play my alt (me!) more than my main now because I love my bog house so much. But my main is unable to give up Bortola, despite his crappy little shack there. Venet Root 4 Lyfe!

- @WalruZ: That is what I keep waffling over. I won't really have this chance again. And baw. baw. baw. baw.
  I CANNOT DECIDE.

- If I had an invite code, I would totally start up an alt for the bogs because I would love to play that way and still have what I've done with my little Bortola girl.

- As for angst over a pixel-house, would you be upset if I destroyed all of your pixel-money in your RL bank?
  Ah, you object, but that pixel-money can be used to buy things of use to you, things that you like.
  Things that you like... like your pixel-house? I rest my case.

- Salai: I'm sure somebody will hook you up with an invite code. I will myself if somebody hasn't volunteered semi-soonish (somebody please volunteer -- I shouldn't be paying attention to Glitch right now).

- I left my 50k Kajuu house a few weeks ago for the fire bogs, and even though I settled into a 3.5k, I made the best of it and had fun. This week, I snatched up a 5k, and hoped they'd give us a new housing quarter soon. Today, I finally got the 7.5k house I left Kajuu for, and I am going to enjoy the hell out of it for eight weeks.
  If you think you'll have fun, do it. The new housing system means we're supposed to be able to customize things, so maybe you could get a fire bog cottage of your own design then, who knows! My point is - we're all going to leave our housing as it is now in March. Why not do what will give you the most enjoyment while you can?

- My thoughts right now over this [very important] decision:

- I guess the question is, will you regret not having bought a fire bog house while you had the chance? it may be pixels, but if it were me I would wonder what life was like living there. and moving now will make it easier when we all have to move. getting too attached to your home could be bad. even with customization, it may not be the same.
  Also, do you spend a lot of time in the firebogs?
  Posted 11 months ago by bored no more | Permalink
- I'm always running through the firebogs for the change of scenery, to collect eggs and peat and jellisacs for the sake of collecting things. So I'm down there a lot, though I spend a good chunk of my time mining as I love it in Ilimenskie.

- Saiai, I lived in Bortola since the second or third week I'd joined Glitch, but then I decided I needed to move on up from my 4.5k rook house to a 10k videogame house (still in Bortola) and then, when the new Groddle Meadow homes came up recently, I debated for a bit, but unltimately got a 15k videogame cottage because I wanted the space and the tree space. While it was a hassle to move so many bags, I figure that I might as well enjoy the cottage while I can. I didn't really want to leave Bortola, but i figured, here's the big house I wanted up for grabs in Groddle, might as well take it.
  Flip a coin and decide if that's what it takes.

- I loved my Estevan Meadows pac-man house and had no desire to move, but since we are moving anyway soon and I am trying to complete herb related quests, it seemed like a good time. The community gardens are not much fun, even with the new locking feature.
  I just snapped up a big house in Shimla Mirch today and it's adorable - I love having all the rooms to somewhat organize my clutter. I say go for it!

- move and if you don't like it move back. If you need help moving just ask people in this thread for help and it will be easy peasy.

- Move. Your house is going away fairly soon regardless, so don't consider the cornerstone -- and this way you'll get to do some herb gardening. When it comes time to imagine your future house, you'll know which garden you like best.
  That said, you appear to have made your choice :)

- I had similar angst leaving my Groddle cottage, but this was back when a bog house lasted 45 seconds on the market, so less time to wring my hands :)
  I don't regret leaving it, but I do often think of moving back, particularly now that both GM and bog housing are readily available. Herbs were a fun change, but I miss the trees and grass!
  Why I will probably stay in the bog house: I love the tables and compartmentalized rooms. I can have a cheese and hooch room, a drinks room, etc.
  What I miss: sunshine.
  Why I MIGHT move: I'd like to live in the far reaches of Aranna before we're no longer tied to geographical regions.
  eta: I wish I had snapshottery earlier on, so I could have saved pictures of my old houses (I think I've lived in six now....). I'm glad at least I'll be able to take pics of my bog house before the changes.

- Well hello there, neighbor.
  And yup, I made my decision to move because.. it's a game! Might as well have fun and take some chances!
  Thanks for the feedback, everyone. <3 <3

- ..The Day Star. I love that phrase. :D

- It's so easy to decide for me it's almost silly. I own about 80 bags... I have a 50k house... I wish I had Herb plots... Sooooo.... (wait for it)
  I'll just wait for new housing when I have to move anyway. :P
  (Which sounds like it's less than 2 months off.)
