Security issue, Putting your computer to sleep does not require re-login.
Time: Any
Frequency: Always
World name: Any
Character name: Any
NPC name: Any
Monster name: Any
Class/Level: Any
Party or solo: Any
In-game time: Any
Area and coordinates: Any
Steps:
1. Fully log into FFXIV with your character
2. Doze off, let Fiance put your computer to sleep when your not looking
3. Wake computer and tab back into FFXIV
4. A 9000 error occurs. Press OK
5. Re-select any character and log back in again, no passwords, no authentication.
The amount of time required does not matter. You could have your computer asleep for a few hours, to a week and it will still let you log back in on your character. I see this becoming a security issue when there may be malicious people sharing computers, such as in a dorm or brother/sister disputes.
