One of the ways to improve playability during this period of reduced player base would be to extend the hours of the order shops. Folks who play at odd hours (mornings for example) are at a distinct disadvantage.
Just a thought.

>>Shawn255: Would love if shops were 24/7
It would certainly make the task of updating the Trader shop spreadsheet a lot easier. (Currently, if I want to catch all of the shops, I have to run the script in all three cities several times a day. Then I have to delete all but the latest version of each shop.)

I don't think a change should cost the Traders--right now, they are doing the right thing--they are paying to be open during the time they are most likely to see a sale. When I was in the Market Plaza entry trying find an open shop, no one came by--I was the only potential customer for some time. I'm not sure that makes sense for the trader.
The change I was looking for was to change the formula so that when a trader pairs for a shop, it is open until they stop meeting their rent obligation.
They may realize a few more sales, and those of us who play during the less populated hours are well served.
Easy Peasy.

I wish they'd push people being more active in their shops and receiving more perks for being so.

The problem with being more active in your shop.. is that you then cant hang out with other traders... who would want the same benefits of being in their own shops.. and you then are away from all the other systems in the game.
Aside from quality of life tweaks like store hours and additional types of mechanics to sell things.. i think stores work well for what they are intended to be.
