Thread: Removing abandoned houses?
From the FAQ stickied to the top of this forum:
Q: There are structures in my city from players who have left the game/no longer active. How do I remove unwanted player structures from my city?
A: There is currently no way to remove player structures from a city if the structure was fairly placed (meaning with /grantzoningrights or with no zoning enabled and not due to a bug). Placing items that prevent a player from accessing their structures is considered griefing.
While a house with 0 maintenance will eventually become condemned, those structures will remain and not be destroyed due to lack of maintenance. According to Tiggs, "Condemned houses will stay until the time that the Character/House Purge system kicks in and clears out houses of inactive characters and cancelled accounts."
