All in less time then it will take for the Leve Quest girl to re-spawn. The only place this isn't true is U'ldah.

I don't know why U'ldah is immune from this but it's the real reason people center there.
No the real reason that people are in Ul'Dah is because that's where people decided to start shouting for groups/sales/trades/etc when they realized that search features in the game were terrible. It's better to consolidate everyone in one area given the circumstances lest you're just trying to play solo that day.

It's also no surprise that people chose the Ul'Dah Mercantile House as their "Official" spot to sell stuff in.
