To the people who are logged in overnight

IF everybody who is staying logged in AFK would just log out then their wouldn't be long in issues to the extent they are now. OF course the first few hours of EA were horrible but now people are playing based off their respectable times zones. I already noticed it is easier to get in at around 10pm EST. It would be even easier if people would log out. There are literally thousands standing around AFK. If they would log out there wouldn't be any congestion problems.

What SE needs to do is a server reboot even morning to boot all the AFK's. This is something a lot of launch MMO do that I've seen though it was more for maintenance reasons but they only brought down the servers what, twice, since EA started?

I love the people that excuse their selfish behavior by saying "SE forced us!" No they did not. SE may have made a bad system, but they didn't force you to be jerks to other people. That's all yours to own.

SE are stupid !

Instead of restricting log ins, HOW ABOUT you do a quick fix and kick AFKers, talk about ass backwards.

I do blame them but i will also blame the the players. Plain and simple it is rude and shows a blatant disregard for others no matter the excuse cause that is all it is. I will continue to log out because it is the right thing to do. The new generation with its total belief in self-entitlement is disgusting period.

A ban for wanting to play the game that most of us have waited very patiently for since its inception. That is utterly rediculous. That would be sure to alienate the fans that want to play and lose potential income for SE in the long term. Just be patient, I know it sucks when you want to play, but find something else to do, and try to play later. It should be fixed early next week, we'll probably be getting abit more free playtime due to the server instability. You'd swear someone stole the last cookie from the cookie jar on you, impatient whiners.

p.s. as a sidenote, I logout when I'm done playing. But I can understand why people would stay logged in.

those people are abusing an exploit and grieving other players by keeping them from logging in. if square doesnt do anything to them they would be liable in a class-action for not enforcing their own rules.

other rules have been enforced against other players, inconsistency is tantamount to discrimination. im being discriminated against by square.

at the very least, teaching others how to exploit should result in a lengthy ban from the forums. unless they want to make it ok to do that.

Sorry, no. I had been logging out every time, but yesterday I spent from 4pm to 1am trying to log in. I am not willingly logging out again this weekend.

I always log out to give other people a chance to play because i'm not a tool bag asshole

Thought I'd mention in full disclosure that I do log out overnight, and am currently logged out and suffering from 1017 and 2002 errors. While unfortunate, I have other things I can do in the meantime and am enjoying an incredible brunch. However, I do Kong myself in prior to going to work and stay logged in during the day (shouldn't you all be in school or at work anyway?).
