You should add a help section when you gain a madness level for the first time. Might be confusing for newbies.

I'm pretty sure newbs will want to know why there is a voice yelling at them to find a treasure to the west or why Steve the termite has decided to squat their inventory.

Oh my, the abuse of teleportation.

Takes 40s of standing still. Push the person and it cancels.

TROLL TIME.

Time to bust out an affluence set.

Don't forget 40 more seconds to attune witchy things to people!

I DO Like the 40 seconds, but we still NEED the 10/20 minutes CDs!

And those 40 secs should be "on the way" and not standing still, meaning your character should not stand there and do nothing, that's just silly, I mean:
A: "Oh, what ya doin there?"
B: "Rubbin ma hands for 40 seconds to fast travel home"
A: "Oh wow, like magic, huh? Just let me attune this nice little doll to ya first and then push you around a little!"

Should instead be:
#1: klick it (the fast travel, used from home to boston or back)
#2: character despawns
#3: loading screen (HERE is the place to put NICE comments and tips for new players!!!) for 40 seconds, uninterruptable
(Also, do the actual loading here already, so everything is done when the 40 seconds are over!)
#4: spawn at destination 40 seconds after #1

Also: Get rid of that 20 sec logout timer and any delay for traveling home from the wilds, harvest "pvp player" tears, enjoy!
Need something? Here is my Shop (Including some useful info for new/returning players at the bottom of the first post)

Did you seriously considered adding a loading screen instead of the waiting animation? Now i see why Dallane insults the people at idea & innovations

You are not AFK while waiting why would a doll attunement be a problem ffs.
