When ever someone is in jail, they have the option to drop a stone, pay up, or lose stats
A intelligent person would not lose stats
A wealthy man would lose money
A poor man would choose the stone

I am unfortunately poor, and have insufficent funds to pay my way out, so i drop a stone

My problem with the Stone, is that if you "log" out, it disapears and you must re drop it starting all over again. My conncetion has recently been bad, so i crash randomly. 1 minute before getting out, i crash, re log. And to my surprise my stone is gone, i drop another, log out, log on. Gone
I drop another, have a minute left, crash. GONE

My suggestion is, that i would prefer for it to stay if you log on, but it will only be around 30 seconds after its timer. Keeping people from logging out and just walking away, just incase they crash they have the safety


Thanks for the consideration

Todd

I think it is like that so people actually serve the time instead of logging out to hop on another character and play while time is served...then hop back on to click the stone.

A solution may be to make it so when you log back in, you automatically log onto your jail character.

that would be good... but then thats 8 minutes someone cannot play at all. And after being g whacked twice, your want to log and play another character.

Im not asking for it to stay behind forever, just 30 seconds after your setence, so if your logged on another char, your boned, but if you crash you can try to recover for it.

All really depends on what Bob/Echo think

Good suggestion though, could solve it.

maybe the stone can be in someones pack...so if they log off, the stone is still there, but stops counting down....once a person logs back in the countdown resumes.

i think if it can be done azi's suggestion is the best....

i was gonna suggest that the stone only stop counting down if you log on anther character...
but as i said azi's suggestion is better IF it's able to be done.

yah, anything is better than crashing and losing all your time. Annoying when it happens 2 in a row :/
