Excellent idea! I love the idea of time online as a currency. Although
this still applies to pay muds.
My main UO character was red for four months. During that time he was
almost useless. Now that he is blue again I can actually go to a town
without getting whacked. That four months of effort I put in is VERY
valuable to me.
Chris Allen mentioned in a psuedo Skotos meeting that time a resource that
you will never get back. This idea makes time online a very precious
currency.
Wes!
