    And then you'll see all the AFKers jumping or running in circles while botted to prevent this. I don't bot, but really, I can't blame people for not wanting carpal tunnel by clicking past a 1017 error.

    This is why I suggested the AFK timer reset only on XP gain. Goodbye AFK's nice knowing you.

    Easy enough: Load up your inventory with cheap mats, craft something with it before AFK timer would kick you.

    AFK timers will never be a solution, there hasn't been one in MMO history that couldn't be circumvented within 1 or 2 minutes of setting stuff up to do it. I'd rather spent 1 or 2 minutes setting it up than face a whole evening trying to login..

    And I'm sure if that if any of those cross the line into botting you will get penalized for it. That being said, I wouldn't call it the one and only solution, but part of a bigger solution involving improved server infrastructure and more servers as a last resort.

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

    This obviously isn't the place for you to rage. Perhaps you could use the search function and figure it out for yourself.

    So what you're saying is to avoid AFK logout by coming back to the keyboard and playing the game? What exactly are you trying to say here?
