Rookie status for new players?

[Neriel]

today i stood in identity room for 4 hours watching tv.. (the place where you choose your gender and name your toon.)

i was waiting for hearthsecret pms from other villages, the wait was long because of time zone...

couldn't there be a feature where you recieve a "rookie" status that lasts 24 hours - during that status you can teleport ONCE to a hearth secret in the wilderness? i don't think pk protection buff is necessary because it's not always likely for you to be killed by players on your first day.

i want to gather lp while waiting for a village leader to send me the secret, i'm not sure about you guys but i find it annoying to abandon my character for a new village even though its better off starting over in a active town.

sincerely, still Town-less Neriel

Regardless of whether it's likely, no character should have "PK protection" in this game for any reason.

Rookie or not, some ability to teleport to someone else's HF (even at cost of something moderately valuable - numen point perhaps?) would IMO be a good improvement in this game.

Except all it takes is one griefer guessing the secret to someone's hearthfire, and all the three hour old rookies who've been macro-bucket grinding will be poppin' up murderin' errbody.

Except that they can't even get murder in 3 hours of bucket grinding without full change. And even if they can they won't have good combat skills. And even if they have, anyone who lets his/her HS roam free is kind of asking for this to happen.

Well it could also require some form of 'permission' of HF owner for someone to teleport to it.
