Meanwhile the other characters on the same account can come and go at will no problem.
I'd hope this could be fixed, but after returning from a 17 year absence to find problem that existed 17 years ago, I'm not very optimistic.

Ugh! It sounds like a bug to me too- but were you going in and out that door a bunch right before you last logged out?

I just had this happen to me recently. i wonder if it has something to do with the load of people in Prime and the housing system being a hog so they are trying to artificially slow it down? this is the first time I've had this happen.

Homes were coded very differently than any other room in the game due. While we love the benefits the system gives (extra storage, privacy, a place to RP and express your character to name a few), they have many quirks to put it mildly.

I chatted with some of the other GMs, and the "All this activity is beginning to make you tired" system can occur not only when you enter a home but when you interact with the door or window of the home (such as knocking, opening, or moving) inside or outside of the home. This effect also has a short timer that does not drain unless you are logged into the game. The timer is character-based, meaning that if one character interacts with a home (your or another), it shouldn't have any affect on another character's timer.

There haven't been any recent intentional changes to make it occur more, but the GMs are looking to see what can be done to help alleviate it. I can't promise that anything can be done quickly or even Soon(tm), but it's on a radar.
