To the people who are logged in overnight

Give it a few weeks. once the free trial periods are over, many,many people will not be continuing to play...server levels will drop to SE's projected levels, and the paying players will have np's logging in. I'm expecting atleast a 50% drop in the playerbase once people have to actually start paying. I'll be staying, this is my new crack. So, we just have to deal with overloaded servers until that happens and SE implements their fixes..supposedly by early next week for the fixes.

SE forced our hands with the combination of server caps and no AFK timers. The only way for people to play reliably when they want is to stay logged in. Blame SE, not the players. Once they fix their end, we should see and end to this being a problem.

I always take 30 minutes more or less to log in and I always log out when I am done, except for weekends I only have 1-2hours to play maximum, but I still prefer to log out and let someone else play, feels more right. Also, if I would leave my PS3 on all day I would likely fry it's hardware at some point

100% agree with Therils post above. I'd imagine an afk kick will be implemented very soon.

No, you can't blame SE for this - every new MMORPG has launch troubles. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. They didn't force your hand, you chose to stay in, there's nothing preventing you from hitting "Log Out" or "Exit Game", if anything you're hurting yourself by not getting a proper rested bonus by staying logged in.

You can blame a lot on SE, but I don't see a gun held to anyone's head in-game and out saying they need to stay logged in.

I can't log in today to play. I have learned my lesson. I will stay logged in overnight from now on. It was a hard lesson to learn but I thank Square-Enix for teaching me this valuable lesson.

I log out whenever I'm not playing, except when I know I'm only away for 5-10 minutes.

It's a shame not everybody shares this level of respect for their fellow players.

I am too nice and reasonable of a person. I work hard to get past 1017. I play till I have to go do something in real life, then exit the game to give others a chance to play. I don't care if you are frustrated with logging in, I just feel it is kinda pig headed to deny others a chance to play by staying afk. Because what if the others happened to be you? I think people need to be a bit more courteous than to just go afk for an entire day because they don't want to be frustrated logging in. That's just how I feel about it.

[Malys]

Forced your hands? Seriously? They just tied your hands so you can't press log out?

Selfish behavior is ALL it is. I might have to spam log in every day for an hour+, but I still log out when I'm not playing & let others get in,
just because I'd like someone else to do that for me too & it's just the right thing to do.
