I started an album: called here but not.

Yes I completely agree, I basically watched each location for approx 5 minutes, If people were talking or conversing or going to the restroom what ever I would have gotten false estimates. However, It was such a large concentration and after the 5 minute period I took a screen shot. Again, this isn't going to be statistically significant or collectively exhaustive. I don't know the population, and did not perform sampling that my statistics prof in college would call meaningful hehe.

They are just pictures, but their number and multiple locations would give you a plausible reason to raise your eyebrows at the numbers. I have approximately 20, in areas from Ul'hah to Gridonia to Limsa, there are more and I am not going to be foolish and suggest 30 would be a proper sampling size for a non known population.

It is a coping mechanism that people are using to stay in game. That is all, but it actively prevents other people from logging in to play.
