Hoo boy. I understand the logic behind it, but past experiences have me shaking my head at the idea. I have seen some nasty situations come out of land claiming in MMOs.
Having a public place where groups often meet that they don't necessarily own would be safer. Saying "this is mine" without really having any claim to it can cause some major butthurt and can start some really immature fights. I remember a certain argument between rp guilds over a back room in a castle. Dear God. That was ugly.
Sticking to housing is just more fair to other players. When you get two groups wanting the same spot, it can get real dumb, real fast.
Working in established taverns and whatnot though, I wouldn't see a problem with.
Ultimately it's up to everyone to decide what they want to do, just figured I'd slap up a warning sticker here. If everyone is mature and fair about it, of course it wouldn't be an issue! Just... not everyone is capable of behaving like adults.
