Question/Idea: OOC Areas
Question/Idea: OOC Areas
I was wondering if it would be acceptable to have an area that players can access for OOC conversation/socializing?

Ithilla wont have one...seems to me if you want to chat - get out of game and use a chat client.. dont fill up available slots for real players for chatting.

Abyss has an OOC/AFK area one can access via the [afk] command (Talus).
That is the only area where you won't get booted when idle for too long. You get polymorphed, and trading is impossible, but it's a place where you're absolutely free to jaw OOC stuff, or be absent from dangerous areas/spawns while rescuing the kid from the washing machine..
.
Sometimes I really wish such a place would be avaiable elsewhere, too. Would save on tells ingame, and defenitely allows you to go afk without clothes change.
And yes, you get returned to the spot you left, so it's not a way to escape the spawns you create (no rest area, too...)
