Boot AFKs

Most of us (are trying to) understand the cause behind not being able to login because "the World is full (1017)". It bites, and it's terribly frustrating that my small windows of time to play the game are usually thwarted by SE. What annoys me more is I'm being denied playtime for a game I bought, when we all know that servers are filling up with players who choose not to log out.

I get that an MMO at launch will have issues, but wasn't it obvious from the open beta and early access that the servers needed some tuning before launch? It's not fair to tell me "try again later" when there was a known server issue, and to top it off, there are characters logged in right now who are AFK. I'm not allowed to play because someone's screensaver is currently running.

If SE wants to do anything to calm some of the tensions their fanbase has, start kicking AFK players until the servers are stable enough for us all to login without issue 100% of the time. There's no excuse.

Please don't let this be another Sim City 5 launch.
