Visitant status if d/c...

So iv'e been d/c numerous times due to ISP.. i BELEIVE due to stuff like that.. stones SHOULD be consumed to keep you active.. up until the point of 120min. even then.. if kicked out and cant logon within the 120min.. shouldnt face consequences... And be allowed to re-log to abyssea with the reg 5min cooldown and have to blow 3-4 stones (with proper abyssite) to be able to re-enter w/o the 1hr timer... Just my thoughts.. but i imagine it's BS to everyone else also.... but to keep it fair.. for every 30min your out due to "d/c" u should lose a stone.. just to keep it "balanced".. but to keep it "fair"...

i mt balanced... kill me? gdiaf!

The problem is that there is no way to tell if your connection is cut due to your ISP, your hardware or if it was a forced d/c.

Well if you actuly losee connetion or force dc, time will still be spent and eventuly kick you out. Shes saying she shouldnt have to wait an hour to get back in if the connection is lost.

Then no one will worry about timing out.

"Oh I'm timing out...I'll just cut my connection and then I'll get a free 48 minutes to work with when I log in"

Eh, not really.. you'd be out of time regardless. You don't get free time somehow.

But the OP's idea is pretty bad too. Say you enter with 120 min and 6 stones... as soon as you receive visitant status, your ISP conks out. It takes until next day to fix. So you enter, get kicked out of abyssea due to time-out AND lose all 6 stones...

No.. if anything, SE needs to fix the issue where you get kicked out for 1hour after logging in AFTER time-out has occured.
If you DC at 8pm with 120 minutes left, you time out at 10pm, but if you log in at 5pm the next day(and get kicked out at that time) you still can't enter Abyssea until 6pm... that's a 20 hour 'ban' from abyssea...
