White Tower and !idle rooms

[Niila]

Hello everyone!

Noticed today that a lot of the White Tower zones were marked !idle and prevented safe extraction of idle characters to the void to prevent them from being attacked or harassed in other way while link-dead or deep AFK. The original intention why the zones were made !idle a long time ago was to prevent Novices from leaving the Tower without a permission and as Novices are free to roam the land, this feature of preventing them from going to the void (where there was actually a bug where going to the void sent you to the newbie zone!) no longer exists, so there's very little reason why the zones are !idle.

The !idle is intended to be used with zones that are dangerous to get to the void in (like places where the rooms change or zones pop when you're not there) or zones where quitting out shouldn't be done. So there'll be examination of the current zones with the !idle flag and see if it's necessary, to prevent the feature of putting people to void (and extracting character if they're idle for too long) works where it should.

With best regards,
Niila

And now after a few hours of going through the zones, all zones that shouldn't have !idle don't have it anymore. A few zones that had !quit but not !idle, now have !idle.
