I wasn't trying to create a Nihilum vs others with the insta poofing.
I believe it was commonly used with Nihilum, and not Holocaust - because Nihilum played blue and knew about it, and Amelinda didn't really care for whatever reason.
Fallen a cleric, has had trains on him in fear and insta poofed - that's a huge advantage for breaking fear, and winning planar PVP.
Emumu has used it tons in the Sol B naggy days, it's rough when you burn down one of their heavy hitters, and have him insta poof at 20% or whatever and be right back in when it's convenient.
I am sure non Nihilum use it, and Holo probably wished they thought of it - but it's just a greasey bug that is basically insta camping macroquest ability.
I don't know the coding or specifically how it works as I don't have an IP exemption - but I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to figure out, as said before having a second window open and logging in kicking ur other guy out of the world or some shit.
It has had significant effects in the past like the fear cleric resing scenario - but ultimately the same would have happened server wise, and really isn't a big deal other than it should be fixed for teams99 hopefully.

This should be an easy fix really. Just need to change the connection check for existing char logged in and take out when IP exemption is enabled. The user should get char is already logged in and have to wait the full timeout period.
This isnt just a problem on Red, it is used a lot on blue to pull as well.
