best thing for the error 1017

Put in a "LOGIN QUE", this will fix the error 1017 and the wear and tear on peoples 0 (or controllers version) key. Before long you at SE will have to buy everyone new keyboards or controllers.

Oh and before i forget, put in a 15-20 min afk auto logout timmer.

No one logs out anymore. It's good though, we need as many RMTs in the game as possible. Kappa

Haha I just cant stand to think of how many RMT and bots there are using up all that player space right now. But tried to log for a good 15-20 min and then the game finally said how about instead of 1017 we give you 2002 and close your game out.

Only problem is that it would make players use bots or put something on the W key or on a controller tape down the analog stick and consistently walk into a wall to avoid getting kicked

I would say no afk timer, I payed for my time in Eorzea, if I wanna stand around and do nothing it is my prerogative. I don't feel anyone should be forced out of the game just for being afk, this is a virtual world that my character lives in, and he is going to be there for as much time as I want him to be there, regardless of what he is actually doing in the world. If I pay for 2 spots on an bus, and use that 2nd spot for a carrion bag, that spot doesn't get taken because a person isn't sitting there, it's my spot and I will use it as I see fit. My characters time in Eorzea is his time, and I will have him use it as I see fit

You are not the only one who is paying to play this game. Going afk for even an hour is insensitive.

Wow this thread is full of original and innovative ideas! I can't believe that no one has ever thought about what OP just proposed!

Wow, all I can say is just wow. Do people really act like this? I regret reading this whole comment.

I'm pretty sure if you brought a bag of rotting meat on a bus they would ask you to leave.

What if I am doing my homework while in game and am simply taking in the ambiance but not obviously interacting with anyone or doing content. I am at my keyboard then so am I still afk?

Some players are calling other players selfish, immature, and or childish. These same players claim they are on a moral high ground and say that adults are the mature ones and that anyone who is away from their input device while logged into FFXIV is a greedy disgusting existence.Gandhi might not approve, but then again he doesn't judge people.

Those people that insult those who are logged in and absent are naught but bullies. In order to get what they want they pressure people and degrade them.

Those players being bullied are rather like placeholders. They keep the slot locked so the bullies can come and take it from them. By pressuring these people into logging out because, "they are being selfish", you are asking them to give up the slot they fought for so that you can obtain is without hassle.

In nature, to be courteous gets you eaten. Its a battle of resources. While I may be a prey animal, I won't let some predator threaten my quality of life.

Here is another post from a different 'we need afk timer' thread, I couldn't have said it better myself

I have been trying to log on for a couple hours on/off and finally didnt get the error about NA/EU not loaded. Finally got to see my character in character screen and have a QUEUE!

Before I finished this message I was logged in!

There is a queue, it's just long enough that they have to manually allow when it does or does not accept more people into it.

They've said they will look into if they need an AFK logout AFTER they implement what they're already working on, aka, more servers, higher server capacity, which they plan to do on wednesday after they've finished internal testing. How about you read what they're doing and let them finish what they're already implementing instead of people making the same threads over and over.

Edit: In fact, after 2 minutes of trying, just now got in a queue at 512, and I was in before I even finished typing this. Here's proof.

I had the same thing happen to me today as well, makes me wonder sometimes if the Japanese servers are getting these messages too or if we are just the "special" group...

Nope. You guys are just the special group while us on JP servers have 20,000 player caps lol hehe yoloswag .

But seriously come on, no one is being treated better on the basis of where said company operates from. We, as in the JP, SEA and ANZ communities that play on JP servers are all having just as much trouble logging in as anyone else.
