the problem with what everyone is saying is that hospitalizations are the source of many concerns and complaints among a large population of our players

hosping is generally fine (not at the time, but you know, as a part of the game), but some players, as we know, have seriously taken things too far more than just once, and it begins to detract from the gameplay, especially from the lower level crowd.

being able to keep someone in the hospital for a long time at little expense can be a burden for the one youre putting in the hospital, whether or not they deserved it. so someone called you a pigwhore. do they need to stay in the hosptal for 3 days straight? probably not.

sending someone a message should be just that - a message. if they continue, then continue the message. but that shouldnt mean they cant play the game anymore

i agree with one other point someone made - make berserking someone give a longer hospital visit, esp if it costs the same as a hospitalization now energy wise. that makes sense to me.

after all the attempted solutions to Hosping, i think this is a relatively fair one, as it eases the complaints of not being able to keep people in the hosp for long periods of time, but it actually costs something now, besides 15 minutes of regen.
