Institute Temporary AFK Kick Timer

[HypnotikAcid]

In my opinion and i could be wrong.. but after the response they gave in this thread im starting to believe they have an agenda....

This agenda being what we've im sure have all read about them breaking records for the most concurrent people logged in. What does this mean? Well this means the most people logged in at the same time at any given time so... by allowing people to stay in game because they are worried they wont be able to get back they are able to "PAD" the numbers. I see cities of people using /sit at chairs to go afk all day/night. And in a recent review they were hoping to hit the 200,000 mark that is why they will not introduce something until sometime after next weeks 'server fix'.

There is absolutely no reason to be ok with people idling on a game and not playing it when other paying customers are trying to get on, especially after Producer posted that these limits were to make it fair for those who were playing to be able to play a stable game. WHERE IS IT FAIR THAT YOU CANT GET IN BECAUSE SOMEONE ISNT ACTUALLY PLAYING AND TAKING UP SPOTS

While I support this, I know it won't do much. people can easily bypass this using scripts to have your avatar take a step every hour or whatever.

If they really want to go through that much trouble, let them.
Most of the playerbase wouldn't be so obsessed with staying on and doing nothing.

I've never understood why people do this, aside from having a bazaar feature like in FFXI, but I've also never seen it as an issue. I understand that it's an issue at the moment, but wait until the server limitations are increased before complaining about this sort of thing. Congestion issues have only gotten better and better since the start from my experience.

24/h AFK is just stupid and is one the main causes for the Server issues.... The Devs should have implemented this ages ago...

this, and also NOT removed the queue, so then the servers don't get constant spam from people trying to enter the realms.

I can't believe so many people are clamoring to make the game worse over a temporary problem. No, wait, I can.

Impliment NOW a 30-60 min afk auto KICK.. When everything settels down, make it like in FFXI you can enable or disable your own auto kick AFK function.....


Its just BINARY!!!!!

Hopefully temporary. And how is an AFK kicker worse?

It gets rid of players who aren't doing anything but hogging game space. There is no reason to be away for more than 30 minutes and still be on. What could you possibly be doing in the game by just standing still for hours?

No. Seriously.
Why do you need to be on for over an hour doing nothing but taking up space? It's not like you can't just log back on again because, good news, there will be room and a functioning que system.

I sincerely hope they don't implement this. It's one of the things I'm loving they DIDN'T do like every other MMO. There's other ways to fix server load problems, and this surely wont be the grand fix. It may help temporarily, nothing more.

-1 again
Just let this thread die because its not going to happen

I think thats none of your business, people pay for that "space". I know it sucks that people cant log but that hardly is the problem of other people and I don't see why they have to suffer.
