Yes Loriel, that's exactly what we're saying. Get on Shifter RC sometime and I'll show you the 'RC Login System' that I have, it's another d/b NPC that handles all of this.
And as for not having a timeout loop do it, Graal doesn't yet have a scripting command for if an RC logs in. It would be easy to add, considering that it does "New RC: #n (#a)" and "New NC: #a", but as of yet it is not supported. You could do it with other events, but it wouldn't be queued properly to it. A timeout that is a medium length is the best way right now to do it.
