I don't agree to this. Many people are logging in there from work just to pop
up every 10-15 mins for a few words with friends.

Many people also tend to answer (when asked to help with a couple mobs) 'Don't
wanna spend my power hours, waiting for evening.' even if they had time.
You're not completely wrong tho, Favo.

Solution: new command powerhours

Grrrrr. So solution: new command powerhours [command]

command being automatic/manual/start

automatic as it is now [default]
manual dont start powerhour until you manually start it
start start powerhour

Everyone\'s happy, people can chat in game, people can help others and not ruin their powerhour.

Short answer: No.

I will sooner remove the power hours completely than to make commands for
people
to minmax better on them. They were introduced to help busy people hang on to
a
game which is filled with no-lifers who spend 10+ hours doing exp, causing big
tune-issues.

If someone is so lame that they won't help out a friend in a party for fear of
losing
their daily powerhour then they must be pretty sad people.
