Unfortunate mishandling of AFK'ers

I guess I should feel bad that I've been logged in for over 48 hours now, but I don't. Took me over 3 hours to get my spot.

Selfish jerks are selfish, feel good about yourself.

And you think this achieves something? They kick someone, and some lucky guy halfway across the world takes the lucky spot in seconds. And yes you should see when maintenance time is over, it wont even be 30 seconds and you'll end up in a 400 player waiting queue.

Also close your pron tabs so you can log in quicker.

Yes, I used the word "fixed" because that is definitely an aspect of the game that's BROKE.

Well the reason it hasn't is the player run Bazaars. which in XI was a significant portion of the games economy. The problem is XI could handle it's traffic, XIV can't.

On one hand I don't blame people for not logging out. On the other hand people who paid for it deserve to play it not spend hours waiting. Wish they prepared for this. Capping doesn't help.
