In-Game Jailing

What about jailbreaks?

Jeoshua:
There already is a jail in-game.  You go there when the GMs think you're cheating or running two characters at the same time.  It is a very... very strange place... with a really big hammer...  :P

Anyways!  ;D I think this is kind of a good idea.  The only changes I would make to the suggestion are that the speedup of the karma/reputation change shouldn't be so drastic.  Instead of a 4 month waiting period for the change, maybe 2 months.  Real time.  Think about it, how long is 24 hours in-game? The speedup factor is x20, so one day real time is 20 days in game... about 1 month fallout time.  If you are persona-non-grata enough to be considered "wanted: dead or alive", as a -2000 karma would indicate, a month in jail is not going to change that.  Now then, 12 days would be a year in-game... still not enough.  5 years in jail might change things, so a real-time of 60 days, 2 months.

No precise enhanced reputation recovery ratio was actually specified, just that if you turned yourself in then it should be faster than if you got hunted down. I agree that it shouldn't be more than double though.

Does anyone know if this idea is workable to implement (in any form)?

I doubt it, people will just make 2 extra alts to use while the jailed one rots in jail.

Alt use/abuse is a seperate problem beyond the scope of this suggestion, I was hoping that someone knowledgeable about the programing in use could give a technical answer.
