Threshold will become famous soon enough
Re: Vacation mode

I remember this feature being called "hibernate" on muds back in the day.

Keeping up with the Joneses, we originally had a hibernate command on Threshold.

I think it was something like this:

I got rid of it for a very simple reason. Nearly 100% of the times it was used, I would get emails from the person asking me to remove it early. Almost every time someone used it, they regretted it and would ask me to remove the hibernation.

Ultimately it was a pretty pointless feature that accomplished nothing positive. It just made more work for me.
