The reason I said we don't need to worry about it right now is because this is not how INX is going to be once we go live. Right now, the idle area (pits) has resource stones for just about everything, colored dye tubs, and something fun for players to do (duel each other). We kind of have a big play ground sitting there and wonder why nobody wants to leave it.
I know that the idle area is very important to XUO. It was one of the things that Maka brought up from day one that XUO really wanted to have in the merger. Imagine Nation won pretty much everything else in the world as far as look and feel goes. We even compromised and decided we would make this area look really nice and give it an RP feel.
Lastly, once we go live... we wont have 150 players with all GM skills and millions of gold and free armor, weapons, mounts, etc. Players will have to explore and kill things and do stuff to get these items. So perhaps many months down the road we will have some PvP junkies hanging out in the idle area, but I dont think it will be anything like it is now.
I appreciate Magus's concern and I think we all want INX to be a success.
