I like the idea of taking pause out of the game. It no longer is needed to signafy that a player is away from keyboard, because we have emoticons now. Plus it would make gameplay alot better considering a player cannot pause to avoid PKs. If you dont wanna be PKed, run, use unstick me, fight back, or tell them to "GET THE BLANKITY BLANK AWAY!!".

If any of you have played Phantasy Star Online, there is no pausing in that game because it's based for online play. If the player doesn't want to be bothered, the player goes to the town level where no PKing is allowed(unless a player is cheating using a hacked item, or is using GAME SHARK).
