Well I'm back, once again with new ideas. But I spoke with a few people ingame, and the response to this seemed pretty positive. So I think it's time to see if it can be done.
The one thing that would be really cool, and would add something which seems to be lacking in the world, is a spot where all criminals, pirates and everything can go. A dirty, run down town, with gangs, pirates, black market cartels etc etc. A place with no law, a place with fights in the bars and on the streets, unchecked.
It's just a concept, but people will have to be really mature about it.
Places it could be done.
Newman's Landing:
There already is the shack, but there is a whole valley behind it. It would be really hard, and would require a lot of effort, but if you built steps either side of the valley with wooden ledges, which hold up shacks and houses along side the valley. Maybe even bridges between the ledges.
Some random shore in Tanaris:
This would be easier, seeing as there are loads of shores filled with exactly the same turtles, and even a few of them really far away where you would never go. The shores are flat, so easy to build on. It wouldn't look as good, but it would still work.
Thousand Needles-type area:
Places like the Thousand needles could work. I am sure there are a few hidden crags, and even if not, the cliff either side of the canyon is flat land. You'd have to decorate it pretty well otherwise it would just look wierd, and maybe make a bridge to a few of the needles.
That's all I could think of. I might draw a concept sketch of the places, to give you a better idea of what I mean.
