So that you couldn't rest effectively. Or so I believe.

Edit: Or not. I don't know. I don't see any other problems with it.

This stupid tactic poison thieves are using to "wake <victim> ;suggest <insert terrible potion, pill, etc.>"

Yes, it's possible for the victim to input a command before they suggest after waking you... but I'm convincing only if you have a client other than NetTerm or Telnet, like Zmud, etc.

My solution: If a victim is mind-control poisoned, when the thief wakes the victim there should be a couple pulse lag on it and an echo to the effect of: "So-and-so is under the influence of toxic poisons and you find it more difficult to rouse them from their slumber." --or some such.

I think that waking someone trying to sleep right outside your cabal, when they are trying to retrieve,raid, etc, is a very valid thing to do. Especially if you are not in their PK range. It gives someone that is trying to defend something to do other than standing there and looking dumb. And there is no Lag in being annoying in real life, which is basically all waking people up is. Yes I know it hurts your healing, but if you are raiding my cabal, I will do anything I can to stop you from healing quickly.

And so it goes...

And when you wake someone up, they can go right back to sleep, and there is a timer on when you can actually wake them back up again.
