Gotta love loving a house after 13 hours to blatant third party software

To get the Developers to build in anti autoclicking software blocks, eg. only being able to click 3 times per 30 minutes or something, that would make sense and render that kind of third party software utterly and completely useless.

Yeah, but that would also break general controls for the game because there's presumably no way to restrict it only to placard, but rather to opening menus x amount of times. When you're house spamming, you just rebind a few keys to your mmo mouse or to a controller so that you can more conveniently go through the menus. Any anti auto clicking block would affect normal gameplay that uses these menus like, say, leve turn ins, collectibles (this would affect people doing Ishgard crafting), etc.

It would whammy console players the hardest because they can only use the menus the keybinding way.

Unless the placard ITSELF has a cooldown.
Or you get a half hour long "debuff/status" preventing you from clicking again.
There are potential ways around that... you know, if SQEX was determined to implement something like this.

How do you give the placard itself a cooldown without it affecting all of the other menus in the game, is the problem.

Yeah, hmm...
I was thinking that since they have multiple timers nested in interacting with the retainer's bell that it probably wouldn't be too hard to get a similar timer put in an interaction with another item, but maybe you're right...
