Ok, I was going my normal merchant rounds, killing some pigs, getting leather and pork to sell along wiith some herbs, when I was fighting a pig... All of a sudden it says You cannot learn anything (something along those lines...) so I ate some pork I brought, but later it says "You must (something) to be (something something) fit again"... so I guess I have to sleep... how do I sleep....

Note: Not all quotes are correct, I have bad memory

make some roleplaye that is only a question of time, walk around, play with you char.... the task in iillarion isnt to get skills so fast as possibel

Dude, did you read my post?!

I said I was doing my normal rounds as a merchant, that would be roleplay, and for me to be a merchant I have to get things to... you hear that? yea... this word SELL! And I don't want my character to be physically ill or impared so I need to know, what can I do to keep those messages from popping up?

Wait.
That's what he meant by roleplaying. Talk to people, read some books etc.

And I've tried just walking around and interacting with people

Oh, thanks, but I've tried that for hours about 15 pigs later "I can't learn" anyways, when you lvl up or whatever, do you get to choose your statS? I'm kinda a noob at this game, so confusing >.< more complicated then any games i've ever played

You don't ever level up. The stats you created you char with are the stats he keeps forever. Your skills in certain areas (crafting, fightin) do improve, though.

I understand you.. nothing will happen to you... the only thing is you wont learn ANYTHING.

However you can do what you like, he wont lose skills, or die or anything.

Thanks, thats a releif...

"whateva"?......"furcadia"?....oh please..... ......

Resting basically means doing things that dont involve using a skill. You will 'rest' if you log out, but it takes longer to be able to start learning again than if you stay IG. The longer you avoid using skills..the more work you will be able to do before hitting the cap again.
Dont, however, just leave your character inactive IG....GM's take a dim view of this.

Not only that, but there is a high chance you will regret it yourself, even without GMs giving you a personal scold. We've had plenty of cases. For example, even if you leave your character in a place that is usually very safe, you are still vulnerable to any kind of attack possible. (Think about stray monsters, or possible town attacks with no previous warning. Please also think about those players we always have ingame who have little to no sense of reasonable RP and will kill your idle character for the hell of it. It has happened.)

What happens -> Your character sits ingame for hours as a ghost while you're away. Your skills are quickly draining because the longer you're a ghost, the more skill you lose for being dead. You "wake up" to find that you barely even have the ability to speak. Literally.

I remember accidently leaving my halfling somewhere, and when I came back, he was just a cloud hanging in front of the farming field lol. (I left him for 2 hours..okay)

a quick guide to wait before being able to learn more is 4 hours, you can make good roleplay in that time or even log on to another acount

4hours?! If your logged out yes, its much faster if your ig simply talking around a campfire or having a drink.
