Idling + ARR= resting bonus

[PSxpert2011]

So, I was dozing off in front of my PC until I knock my forehead into the edge of the desk. (I think i learned a hard lesson then) >.<

So there's many players standing around the city doing absolutely NOTHING! While SE thinks that game-wise it's alright to eliminate bazaars in 2.0, why not eliminate idle characters all together! v.v*

While considering such a idea, this is how it could work(but it would be optional and by default in the configuration settings). This is the means of humanizing our avatars and the world.

To the point:
1-While standing idle for 10~20 min. your character starts to /stagger.
2-After 30 min, your character starts to /doze off.

(IRL, i don't think I find it pleasant and very tiring to stand around all day doing nothing and people around you would feel suspicious and creeped out.) :P

3- When 40~50 min goes by, your character lays down and rest (activating resting bonus).
4- 51~60 has gone by, your character falls asleep. (optional: You log off) zzz
By logging off, you go to character screen (default)

While most people wouldn't want this to happen, the settings can by turned to 'off', just so you can be presented as a mannequin... While others can show some life (or throw a slumber party) in the middle of the city streets (or around a camp fire).

too weird?



not my best work of art but you get the picture

Skip it all, 1+hrs of idle = autolog to character screen. Rested if they're at an inn or camp, otherwise no rested bonus for them. IMO be better than giving a "Hey, if you idle wherever you get rested! Let's idle at Garuda entry!"

The only reason anyone would have to idle after ARR launches would be for repairs, since bazaars are going away. Still, I think most people just idle in town because it's an old FFXI habit. I log out of the game because it's less stress on my computer.
