Global shouts would cause other problems. As for the first, we do not have a channel system to begin with, so implementation would be difficult.

If your really looking to alleviate the clutter of people posting bazaars and going AFK, the easiest and best solution is to give an error message if you try to setup a bazaar in certain areas, like in this case, you cant set a bazaar within 20-30 yalms of a Moghouse entrance, or 20-30 yalms from an Auction house window. Sounds dum since you can literally walk while having a bazaar active. But it can easily be deactivated if you break one of these circumstances.
It would not alleviate the congestion as a whole as the individuals would still be in the zone in question. Additionaly it would require the implementation of a new system whereas bazaar tax is simply a pre-existing "switch."
An interesting thought none the less.
No you would be very accurate to say it would not get rid of congestion in terms of, how many people are in the current area, however, it would spread them all out so its not just a cluster mess of people in front of the moghouse so it takes an hour to inch your char through them every 2 seconds, move stop move stop move stop, oh hey i finally got into the moghouse. This is actually where a craptacular connection has an advantage, cuz less avatars are loaded up, and u get to moghouse really fast, lol
This. The people suggesting this onslaught against bazaars need to put more thought into the people that would be dis-serviced by plopping bazaars all across the world instead of within 3-4 easily reached zones (read: less than a few steps from the Mog House). The bazaar system is fine.
jeuno congestion....
