Long term idea. Mini wards.

only epic fail is aution house. Unless they do it like WoW just more organized. Sorry but an auction isn't you buy it out right. It where you bid on things. And currently ffxi unless they do merge it don;t have longevity. since it requires player contribution. Like windurst ah on my cureent server is all but empty. I would have to travel to jeuno to update gear. This kinda stupid.

Hmm, that's strange. I find that the Auction Houses work just fine in FFXI... and this is going on 8 years

When the game had a healthy population, with a lot of new players, they didn't need to merge them. However, they are merging them in the next major update due to player population. Also, if you think an auction house is a place where you cannot buy things outright, you need to read more about them.
