Custom placed tree to block house near Yew Bank? [Solved]

Hijacking the same post for a different question.

So now this house is now gone, and there is a tree here to block future placement. Why was this allowed? Or was this house previously grandfathered?

EDIT:
Original Title: What happened to that ridiculous Yew Library?
Original Post:

I was running around and notice it was gone now.

I'm talking about that small marble N of Yew Bank, that used to have 10+ layers of bookshelves -- it was a complete eyesore.

Anyone know the backstory? I'm curious.

Wow. If this is the case... something suspicious is going on, because the house is gone and now a tree is there so you can't place a house anymore.

@Hoominaga Do you remember that tree always being there?

@ham take off your tin foil hat man. Custom tree? wtf can't you forum search before posting embarrassing shit like this? Or log onto test, or go start a runuo server and look at the default tree placement. That old tree has been around forever. Here was the original shot of when I placed the lrg tower. Hoominaga managed to fit in the sm marble. Notice the large tower is now 4-5 tiles to the west, preventing the small from being replaced.




or circa 2014:

This one doesn't show far enough north west to show the tree, but I thought it would be fitting for you @ham
A special present for you

Dang, here I was thinking I found the next big thing.

fwiw I did do a quick forum search but I guess I didn't use the right keywords -- couldn't even locate the sale thread that @One posted.

@El Horno, Thanks for explaining it to me and providing the screenshots. All of them.

Is that a wart?

10/10, would read thread again.

FYI, that tree was always there, having owned that large tower... the one behind the bank and the loggy that used to be there, I can definitely swear it was always there. by shoving the front tower over, it prevents the placement of that Hoomi house that was there
