Do they keep their shops open all hours of the day? No. Therefore they are still dumb. They stand at their shop like a mindless drone of a vending machine that stays in one spot for their entire eternity. Some of them have been the same shopkeeper since I started playing in '97 meaning they are over 1000 years old. Lets stop trying to make NPC's something other than what they are. It wasn't 'unrealistic' that they would stay where put. Not when compared to the plethora of other things they do or do not do.
Ah...I see the dejection and loneliness has gotten to you too. Taking your anger and frustration out on poor ancient shopkeepers who are killed and abused daily.
