AFK PC's eating up spots on server

I'm not logging out so that people with no jobs can play all day and won't allow us working people back in. We're contributing to society by making the economy work. We have the right to AFK. All you non-working burdens to society can cry somewhere else. I'm gonna AFK as much as I can just to make that point clear.

Kind of making assumptions there aren't ya? We do not all work at the same times nor in the same time zones. If ya wanna throw out ignorant generalizations that is on you. I would guess these dredges on society probably are not playing a game that requires money to play. But hey what do I know I am just a working stiff.

solution shouldn't be: afk timers + queues

solution should be: add more available slots so that the people paying for this game are able to enjoy it whenever/however they want

if someone wants to spend the 12.99 a month to sit afk in town, more power to them.

we need more servers, and we need free transfers from "full" servers to "new" servers

both legacy and non-legacy alike

Don't worry a lot of peoples PCs will be breaking down from staying on for a couple days, then the rest of us will have a chance to get in. :D

Really? REALLY?! I work and I can't play at nearly any time of the day. Does that seem fair by your logic? Stop being an self important jerk to others.

Anyone thats afk idling in town for more than 4 hrs should be kicked and banned from the game for 24 hr.. That would teach the dicks.

I think it'd be a good idea for an idle auto-kick to be implemented temporarily until the server problems are alleviated.

Personally, I like to stay logged in to read linkshell chat/see what I missed while I was afk in normal circumstances, so I'd be kinda annoyed if it was here to stay, even six+ months from now when the servers aren't at capacity.

They could make automatic booting a temporary measure for afks longer then 1 hour. 1 hour is enough time to eat, shower, use the restroom...longer then that and someone else gets your spot. It should be temporary until the server issues are fixed, then who cares? Stay logged in a month.

I agree, we need auto kick.

The problem with this isn't the players, AFK or otherwise. The problem is the system in place.

No one wants to just play NumPad0 roulette for hours to get in, and that includes the people who are already in. They don't want to log out because then who knows when they'll be allowed back on.

Blame the restrictions and the idiotic lack of a queue, not the players.
