To the people who are logged in overnight

[Jennestia]

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.

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.

You can blame SE for the following - Not taking into consideration all of the metrics provided from previous betas and preorders, not implementing an AFK kick, server caps. I'm not blaming SE for my want to stay logged in, I'm blaming them for the circumstances that allowed this to happen and made it viable.

Plus, if I'm logged out in a sanctuary, I'm getting my rested XP, whether I'm logged in or out. It's an unfortunate fact that, given the opportunity, people will take advantage of an issue like this. In this case, everyone loses. Either I stay logged in so I can play, or I log out and have no idea when I'll be able to log back in again. This same thing goes for everyone.

SE is the only one to blame. It was in their hands to spend more money for a better server infrastructure.
