    How does the bazaars being in town make the toys any less shiny? There is always going to be a little "lag" (STOP CALLING IT LAG, ITS NOT LAG IT'S POOR PERFORMANCE / LOW FPS!) wherever the bazaars go- it's not any less unpleasant outside than in.

    I prefer Rolan mart as well, but the original tax was to get people out of Jeuno, I don't see why they couldn't do it again.
    Wrong, the original point of the tax was simply a gil sink and to avoid undermining the auction houess, which also charged a fee. It was the players who decided to take measures to avoid it.

    If they should do anything at all, it's lift the tax on the chocobo circuit and turn those rooms full of AH windows into actual AH windows. It may as well end up being a centralized hub of activity, maybe then people might even actually do chocobo racing...

    Most of this wouldn't actually be a problem if people spread out to each area of jeuno instead of everyone setting HP in port. Some people have moved to ru'lude, but usually there's nothing in Upper except the bazaars (on shiva) and the people looking at them, and lower jeuno doesn't fare much better.
