I agree with Edoras.

All this does, IMHO, is encourge people to find private hidy holes and idle or spam train spells and skills to ensure that they get the number of hours without any risk.

But as Big D has spoken, I'll drop the issue.

Because they're not already doing this for flag status and equipment? :roll:

I'll concede Jerinx's point that most of the wealth PCs have (including mine that had his bank account drained) is actually the plundered wealth of others rather than wealth that they actually produced.

I think that the best way to deal with this though, would be either the creation of producing classes, or allowing existing classes some level of production aside from the limited things that are there such as brewing and scribing. This would allow players to feel they have some control over their environment and allow for the world to not be so static, and could free up the IMMs to be actually immortals or plan RP events and what not. Of course it also probably involves far more time and effort than anyone has, so I'll just shut up here.

EDIT: And as I meant to say, would either help with the hoarding of items or at least make it a moot point as you could get somebody to make something somewhat similar.

I find it quite amusing when people try to rationalize miserable implementations like this one. Makes visiting the forums worthy.-

If you want to keep your [REDACTED], play the game.

Seems pretty simple.
