I've noticed I get a lot of pvent offers that I'd really like to fulfill but their timing is less than ideal. Specifically, I'm often logged in when the game has no other active characters to RP with.

I was wondering if it would be possible to add in an option to delay accepting a pvent? The way I see it working is that typing 'pvent delay' would prevent the code from timing out after an hour if you hadn't yet accepted the prompt, under the assumption that you're still searching for available players to RP with.

*mumble* I think that's a genuine problem, but I'm reluctant to let pvents be extended to whenever a person feels like using them because the purpose of the system is to encourage RP when people otherwise might not take the initiative and do so. If they can use a pvent whenever they want, then the urgency mechanism is lost.

An hour extension doesn't seem like a bad thing, though... I'm just not sure it's quite the right answer. Further suggestions, anyone?
