Two things. First, why does it last so incredibly long? Why isn't it just 30 seconds or whatever like the other stuff? Yesterday I killed a guy at the top of OHN and then ran about halfway down the dungeon and had to get on another char for something. Well, after all that, he just sits there while tons of bugs run up and surround and kill him. I don't see any point in that. You would be more likely to be killed if you log instead of recalling right after the timer goes and you are being chased, assuming they would have the same timer, so why is it so long?

Second, if it is going to be so long, how come when someone logs, and THEN you hit them, when they get back on they have no timer? People will just log over and over, absolutely endlessly, and then just recall or something. That's just dumb. Doesn't seem to do it's job there. Just kind of backfires half the time.

what I would like to see is a way to cancel logoff if you are in pklog off delay. (make it so if you move, it cancel's the logout, or asks you if you want to cancel the logoff)

Atleast that, but theres no reason for a 30 minute log off timer or whatever in the world it might be, instead of the reasonable 30 seconds for everything else.
