Players can no longer send friend requests when playing with a free trial account.

* Players can still receive friend requests when playing with a free trial account.

Y'know...the sad part of all of this? THAT is my single favorite scene from that part of the MSQ. Everything else either made me cry, or seethe with rage. That ONE scene brought me temporary peace.

It's nice to see a few counter measures! ^-^

(Be a good person and say that is a end of 2.0 spoiler above the hb oki?)

Does sending friend requests and tells as well shouting count as actions?

Even if they aren't, the RMTs can just program the bots to jump once every 10 minutes. THAT won't be counted as afk.

I know in my server there's some people of my neighbor that always AFK when it's sleep time (I could say they're net cafe refugee). Kinda wonder what happen to them when this happen :(

They did this shortly after 2.0 was released, and within minutes people found a work around; Talking to an NPC/Retainer Bell and AFKing effectively let you AFK without being kicked.

Wonder if they've taken that into account this time.

That scene ruined the experience for me, because there was 0 blood for any of the dismemberment that occured.

The afk measure isn't against RMT, it's because when 2.0 released there were insanely long queue times and server crashes because there was no system in place to kick afk players.
