No more player bazaar?

[Hulan]

While I don't feel one way or the other about Bazaars themselves. But you do all know that there is a very considerable overhead consideration to this decision as well? Bazaars encourage players to leave their characters logged on even when AFK, which in turn places undue stresses on the servers just to maintain character data for players who aren't even playing. Every incentive they give for players to log of when they're not playing translates directly into a raw improvement in server stability and speed.

It's one of the reasons that, from a programmatic perspective, EVE's skill system is pure genius. It ensures that people will continue to play (since you can't progress content wise without logging in regularly) but at the same time guarantees that everyone who is not at that moment playing is logged off - saving resources for other players.
