but I'm going to contribute anyways since I'm a master Merchant and therefore I see opportunities here and there for improvement and expansion of the class' area.

It came to me while I was roaming Tatooine... in several cities you see these sort of multi-player apartment sorta things... I was thinking how cool would it be to live in one and then I thought.. hey if I could, how cool would it be *manage* one of these.. the idea is you put down one of these and invite players to come live with you at a reduced rate, less than owning a house. You wouldn't have to pay taxes because that's the landlord's job but the tradeoff is you could not make these residences public. Think of it as the exact opposite of a merchant tent.. a building or structure devoted *only* to residence just like a merchant tent is designed specifically for commerce.

Oh well.. just a thought.. I figured it had some potential.

Speaking of houses.. I hope that eventually the ranch homes you find scattered across Naboo and Tatooine as NPC homes become available.. there are some very nice looking houses out there... would be great to add some variety than what we have now

I don't see new idea posts as drivel. I was being a bit sarcastic in the other post. I for one think that is exactly what these boards are for

It's been suggested many many many times. The general response is "yes, that'd be kinda cool, but it's way too much work for too little payoff."

I think renting apartments in non-player cities would be a good money sink for the game and a way to utilize tons of worthless buildings in cities. The problem is how many per player? Do they cost lots? If not you could have the wealthy renting out tons of space for storage. For the low money players, well they might want it for storage or extra content, but I doubt SOE would make them hold that much stuff and since the bank already holds 100 items for you it may not be worth a new players time and money.

I personally think it would be cool strictly from a content standpoint. So many of my houses have been resigned to storage buildings it leaves little space to decorate a living area. It would also be cool if merchants could lay down apartment buildings in player cities for rented space, but with so many houses going for free these days they would probablybe empty. I would love to have an apartment in Coronet or Theed or other static cities as well, just to hang out in and craft, a nice view wouldnt hurt either.
