From: Annah Zamboni Why not just post their dwell? Traffic counts are not always a good sign of sales. Im not sure the reasons behind this but several of my locations with less that impresive traffic count contribute to a good percentage of mine and other vendors sale.

People can personalize their stores in a mall, too. Many malls have stand-alone stores and FIND PLACES available in different ways.
A mall is just stores under a roof. GIGAS, or Anshe's malls such as in Ross, they have plenty of stand-alone feel to them, where you can easily set up any look you want, and browse easily enough by strolling, just as you would have to do if you walked up and down the shishi Rodeo Drive kinda Miramare city street.
I think the only cultural allergenic reaction we are dealing with here is "urban" vs. "suburban" since mall means "mediocre, mass, suburban, hick, C&W" to many whereas boutiques and stores mean "urban, sophisticated, cool, rave," etc.
But that's tripe. There are many high-end goods in malls, too. And some boutiques are roadkill.
Malls are about choice and ease for fly-bys. It's all good. People need a place to sell their wares.
Not everyone is in the upper classes of the FIC or beyond or FIC wannabee just below, some are in the mediocre vast masses who just have a little to spend, and still others are in the great unwashed with only basic accounts. "What about the poor people with no talent?" sez I...
Let the people have malls...they want them. Let those with shishi stores have shishi stores and try not to rain on others' parades.

The fact that there are enough malls that we can list top 10, with only ~20k people sickens me.

Your FIC stuff isn't relevant to the thread whatsoever. The thread is about malls. From: Prokofy Neva the mediocre vast masses who just have a little to spend Money wise, these people would benefit from having their own locations for their stores where they dont have to pay rent - which can be pretty high in some malls. That's why I have my own location in Grignano. Buying land is a one time expense and then it's done. I have seen some nice, reasonably priced little 512s recently that would be perfect for stores. In fact I recently passed a few up in Aqua a few months ago. STUPID ME! From: Prokofy Neva Let those with shishi stores have shishi stores and try not to rain on others' parades I'm really sorry speaking my mind and expressing my opinions counts as "raining on your parade" I guess no one is allowed to disagree with you.
