This game needs a play time limit.

I agree afk-ers should get kicked out after a few hours, I jst logged out phoenix after playing for 3hrs but one guy has been afk outside the mauruder's guild the entire time I was playing. I know cos I've been back and forth doing the starting quests.

The lack of a proper queue system, the issues with 1017 etc. The only way to reliably play the game is to never log out if you can help it.

3 hours? It took me 7 minutes at 6pm and 15 minutes at 8:30pm. Either my server is a relative graveyard or you're doing it wrong.

The AFK kick is fair enough and to be perfectly honest I expected there to be one but a restriction on play time would be a very very bad idea.



They get it, congestion is bad but they are working on it so hang tight.

I'm totally with you there.

Also, hilariously horrible idea if legit.

lol, 3 hours. That's nothing.

Stop suggesting stupid stuff.

Forcing people to log out after actively playing for 3 hours - no. People are able to make that decision themselves.

Kicking out characters that are AFK for a reasonable length of time - yes.

Bad idea, also a bad idea to have a game log you out after 15 minutes, an hour long AFK timer with no movement is an obvious "I went into the other room or just did not log off" amount of time, 15m says "Wow, I went to tuck my daughter in and I got logged out."

What you have is the lack of a real queue system and 6-8+ hrs of afk people just holding up a spot.

Your suggestion reminded my of the nintendo 64 displays in department stores where mario told me to let someone else play.
