Let me know when you finish that room where players can pick a gate to go anywhere, so I can delete it. Adding a "gate room" is a terrible idea. It would really just lower player interaction.
Trinsic wasn't a main town on IN because we had teleporters to it, it was that way because the players decided that it would be that way. Granted players were led there during the Britain event but after that ended they could have went anywhere. Really the community was strong enough where a few players could have said "lets go to skara brae" and that would have been the main town instead. Just like how serps wasnt the easiest red town to get to but it was INs main red town because the players chose it to be so for the most part.
Making the pits have a more RP feel won't change anything either. Even with a certain feel, it won't do much when people will easily ruin that feel with a few simple strokes of their keyboard. Plus the whole safe zone thing doesn't really work into a RP reality very well. RPing isn't easy or fun when your actions are limited.
