@Hirnsausen I was just about to suggest basically the same idea, but I was imagining it working more as a "towing service". I think in priority, it's more important to clear out the inactive users' constructs than to clean out constructs that have just been there a while. I believe your idea works, but maybe the 7-day counter should reset if a user logs into the game. So, if a users' construct has been within the "purple zone" for more than 7 days and they haven't logged into the game, their construct is compacted and can be retrieved from the Mission Pick-Up Area as you stated.
Additionally, to resolve the issue of too much advertising or people getting "in the way" of regular normal trading activities: I believe the landing pad for the markets could be segmented. A large area around the market center itself should be designated as "temporary parking only" (24 hour only, tow zone, period.) so that people who intend to leave their "advertisements and shop constructs" would have to move them to a designated "longer-term parking" area around the outside edges of the landing pad (7-day offline tow zone, those logged in can leave their constructs there indefinitely.). This would limit the available curb-appeal spaces while still allowing people to utilize the market landing pad as a place to do business with people visiting the markets.
My two cents!
