With all the little girls whining I thought I'd throw in a piece of my endless optimism.

AFK Sampling has been crushed for the time being... so wouldn't harvester demand go through the roof? YAY. (Even tho I was harvesting AFK faster than a medium mineral extractor- insane - so I might miss it a wee bit hehe).

I don't think it will increase demand much if any. Maybe some will by another personal harvester, but not med or hvy.

I could certainly see the demand for medium and heavy harvesters increase. This would be because the crafters who have been using a medium house and personal harvesters may upgrade to a large house, losing 4 lots in the process, thus losing 4 personal harvesters. The 3 lots that they would have remaining (considering one being taken up by a factory) would be that much more important to bring in close to the same amount of resources. Therefore, wouldn't they want to increase the size of their harvesters? Of course, they may just cancel their accounts, hehe.

I doubt it will have any effect on harvester sales more likely people will just not bother to suppliment with surveying now.

No one will be upgrading to a large house. In fact you will not be selling any large houses for a while.

The patch tomorrow morning will change the house itemlimits to 75 per lot with a maximum of 250 items, making smalls and mediums MUCH more desirable than large.

actually afk sampling hasnt been killed. there is a way to get around it already.

Do tell Rovani

its a simple matter of activating the esc key during your macro.

the escape key will close the window and wont interput your macro.

Figure out how to activate it and you will have your answer.

And yes there is a way to do it with ingame macros.

I'm AFK sampling now and the Critical Event doesn't seem to stop me. It's still there when I ALT-TAB, but I'm still pulling in the resource! Wohoo! Take that ,SOE!
