    Suggesting to increase the length of time hired merchants stay up on the FM from 24 hrs to 48 hrs. It is a pain to set up your shop every day - would be a lot nicer to do it every other day.

    Even if we can't increase to 48 hours, even having it go up by a small amount (5-10 mins) would be pretty good QoL for people who set up their stores daily. Due to the nature of 24 hour timer, the stores need to be set up earlier and earlier each day, until a persion needs to set it up twice in 1 day.

    I support any increase in store duration.

    48 hour far too long, as it removes virtually all competition to snag an expired fm spot. That said, I could see up to a 25 hour duration working well (a 1 hour extension from currently). It gives players who set up shop when they get on daily (say after work) a window to reset, while still allowing forgotten shops to naturally expire.

    More than longer shop duration, I just wish I could see the tab of what sold and who bought while retrieving my items from Fredrick.

    Don't see any reason or interest to make life easier for people potentially having same good spot for over a month.

    Who even cares about fm spots with unlimited free owls? Just put it up somewhere. I agree that doing it every days gets very tedious. An extra hour would solve a lot of the getting earlier thingy that akash stated.

    I also see no reason to reduce the amount someone has to log in to the game really. I also don't care if someone has 25 mules having to do it 25 times everyday.

    The same logic was applied to 24 hour quest/event timers. It was widely understood as a QoL improvement that actually improved QoL so that people wouldn't get stuck with a naturally shifting schedule. Resetting shops works exactly in the same but opposite way.

    Maybe we can reach a middle ground. Ch1 spots expire in 24 hours as normal and other channels get the 48 hour expiration timer. It gets tiring for host to list splits everyday and to constantly list their other items too
