UPDATE: Considering the recent developments concerning SE's policy on housing/FC trading, we have decided to take down the offer. We will simply continue to gather gil and wait for a Large plot to open up to be claimed (we're at 60M anyway, that's not too far from being able to afford a fresh new lowest class large plot, yay! That took only a year and a half!).
If you see a large plot available and would like to let us know, that would be great, of course, and we are also open to donations should you feel your pockets too heavy.
However, keep in mind that when we get wind of a new large plot available, our current FC house will simply be relinquished and free for anyone to take it, so please don't ask us to "reserve" it (I've been getting a lot of those whispers, sadly). It wouldn't be fair for us to reserve it for anyone, considering all the requests we've been getting.
Seen how the focus of the thread is over with, I will not mind if the mods decided to delete it. Thanks a lot everyone for your time and care!

Hello all,
Those few of you who know me well in-game are aware that for the past year (more or less. I started after 2.3's patch) I have been working tirelessly to get the Free Company I am a part of a Large house, for a variety of reasons that go from plot purposes to making my comrades happier. I don't have star-crafting classes, I don't do raids, and I don't have the RL riches to sell wedding bangles or dyes, so my gain in this year has not been extraordinary high. By crafting HQ low/mid level gear almost everyday (I had to take a break for my finals), and with some help from another FC member here and there, I was able up to this point to gather about 45M gil.
In my naivety I thought that would be the amount I should look for, as that is the price Large plots reach after a full devaluation. However, it has come to my attention that the server has gotten richer, and as such when the next (if?) batch of wards will come, we will likely not be able to see Large plots devaluate low enough to buy them. They start somewhere between 70-90M, and I'm not sure that at my pace I will make it in time to reach that much gil.
Needless to say, I can't even turn to pay people to relinquish a large house. Even if I was able to pay them to relinquish, I'd never have the gil to then buy the plot (since it'd start from 70-90M again) before someone else snatches it.
So here I am now. After hearing that the option to change name to free companies is in the works, I'd like to turn to Free Company owners who for whatever reason may want to give up their FC with large house. It's a rare occurrence, but it is there.
Our current offer is of 58M + a completely free relinquish of our small plot in the Mist, ward 7 plot 17. You do what you want with that.
I will update this as I manage to rack up more gil, but for now this is what it is. I am well aware of the unlikelyhood of this kind of trade, so I'd appreciate if comments of the sort were kept elsewhere. I have been working hard (and am approaching mental exhaustion after a year of crafting) and I am doing this for my free company as much as I am for myself. Please respect this feeling and modulate any discussion you may desire to begin in this thread.
Thank you,
Blue

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
"What makes a strong character is how they deal with their flaws, their fears, their turmoils, their troubles that get in the way. That's what makes them relatable." -- N.C.
