I understand your concern about the lag....EVERYONE is getting tired of it. But hey, nothing we can do about it. SE doesnt use our ideas. They just like creating a game where they are God. Woot! Game God. lol Anyway,..yea...I like the AH idea.
hmmm

Wootness!

First Post!!!

curiousity has me.. Has something happened or are they trying to improve the situation regarding lag, etc..

just a thought. .a passing one at that..

Why don't they create a Huge town somewhere in the middle of nowhere ... call it the auction town.. and Make it the primary AH.. or hell, close all the other AH's or make them all independant of one another.. ie. Port Jeuno is separate from Lower Jeuno, etc..
maybe that will eliminate the lag in Jeuno.. and some of the bazaar's people leave up.. like 10 chars at a time .. getting ridiculous.

but you'd have to put the "main Auction House" in an area accessible by tele, or something.. or even an area where low lvl chars can "walk"
that way the town AH's are used for things specific to that town..
lag is getting horrid..

but yeah I wonder what's going on with this spur of the moment update.

It was a spur of the moment idea... but to clarify, and give more details..
Make all the Current AH's separate.. Lower Jeuno separate from Port Jeuno, Port Jeuno separate from Upper Jeuno, same thing with the 3 main cities. I think we'll find the AH's will become more relevant to the quest(s) in those areas, or needs of that town... such as crafting guilds will have results and ingredients for those guilds.

This new area I'm talking about.. make it a floating city or something easy.. something that wouldnt require any major change to what's already there.. heck you can even make it go from place to place..one week near windy, one week near jeuno.. tie it in with airships, warp points, tele's, or even items.. I don't care.
Put an NPC in the Chocobo stables.. whatever.

and make it 20 lvls or something.. enough to where everyone on the server can be there..
20 different zones.. spread EVERYONE out.. cap the allowed people .. like an elevator. sorry floor 1 is full.. go to floor 2.. or something similar.. but link all those AH's and floors together. and hey just for a spin off.. put an arena in the middle.. veiewable from all floors.. and let people do some true PVP.. one on one stuff.. pissed someone's undercutting you? take it to the arena.. hehehe..
anyway.. have fun with the notion..

I donno about the 20 story floating AH. But that arena would be awesome. I think every city should have a small arena where players can go fight each other, either for fun or maybe even wagers. I also think it would be awesome to have a huge arena in Jueno where they had tournaments. Although one class might own the 1v1 tournaments a team event where you could go in with your LS and fight other LS's would be awesome. It would also form stronger bonds between LS mates.

-Atredes-
P.S. Throw me some feedback and maybe it will gain some SE attention.

hmm... I think i fail at understanding sarcasm (i hope it is) but i'll explain the flaw in your plan of 1 AH...

Imagine Lower jeuno + upper + port + ru'lude + windy + sandy + bastok all in 1 area. You thought Lower Jeuno lag was bad, wait till you see this.

Hope you saw the little flaw there =p

never mind how hard it would be to make an honest gil with all the damned power crafters throwing gil at materials sending price through the roof, and undercutting the end results to hell... with only one ah all that will be ammassed on the one and things would plummit even quicker than they do at times -.-;;
