- merchant addon can read the history, not really needed
maybe some log addons or chat savings, but how many people are using this?
why not a button to save it manually? (with a function that can be called via lua code to be able to allow autosavings via RegisterForUpdate)
and after writing this text i believe, we don’t need SV autosaving

If this causes the game to stutter every 5, 15, or 30 mins, people are going to complain the same regardless of how long between. I thought 5 mins between saves would be more reasonable than 15. It doesn't matter if I'll have a use for it, but if it's an option that'll fit into more peoples' needs with hardly any impact, why not? Especially with something that'll effect everyone that plays the game in some way. In all honesty, I don't have a "need" for autosave either and I've crashed the game more times than I care to count.

From the sounds of it, Dan's team hasn't fully figured out how autosave is going to work, let alone ironed out an interval between saves. He posted here for suggestions, I made mine.
