:::Petition:: Removal of 1017 and Reinstatement of Global Queue System

no the logical thing to do isn't add a "wait list" to get on - it's to remove those not playing.

Real simple formula to follow, or as complex as they want it to be to determine if a player is "idle" or actually playing. Spamming the same skill, or moving in circles, or jumping constantly is easily enough detected as "not really there despite doing X" and as long as it's intelligent enough to figure out normal "spamming a skill "combat by mixed movements or exp gains - there won't be any issues with "normal players being kicked for being idle"

Auto-kick programs have existed for years, ever since Online gaming really started up - why in the world would you overlook such a basic feature?

/signed I'm really disappointed at Square Enix over this. Seriously makes me wonder if they are competent at anything.

This is really getting monotonous, every single day the USA prime time locks out Aussies from playing. I am not one to usually complain to loudly, but it seems I get to play maybe 2 hours a night when USA prime is over. Not only that I STILL cant get my account fixed so the mistaken account is merged with my beta one... So I have lost nearly a week of my 30 day free period without having touched the account. They REALLY need to start kicking out the bloody Americans who afk 24/7

They did have an Auto-kick Timer in FFXI... but you could toggle it on and off....

Yep... think the max idle time was something like 30 minutes... forget. I toggled it off myself, as I would routinely go AFK to eat and stuff while the LS would gather for events. Then there was that whole Abyssea leeching thing people did... lol.

At least with XI, there were actual reasons for AFK'ing---there are NONE in this game. I have yet to see any perceivable benefits. You can't bazaar, there's no need to track the DoT/Repop cycle of a 24 hour NM.... really, what is the point? All they are doing is securing their access while not playing, stealing that access from a would be active player.

That was a bit racist as its not just americans. You have to understand that everyone plays on every server. The east hemisphere play on the NA/EU servers , particularly alot of the recent RMA gold farmers have been centralized to NA servers. You cant be so blind to think that americans are the issue, its not, its everybody wanting to play at the same time and the first noticable notion is to go where you can play uninterupted. So i find your comment offensive.

Thats exactly why they are doing it...
