1017 would be solved by kicking all AFK Players...

While I will agree with the AFK Timeout (just like FFXI has) ... something that does concern me is the wait some of us have for getting into a Duty via the Finder, as on average it takes me 30-50minutes.
This is ridiculous on it's own, but often I don't really have much else available to me when waiting for them. It likely would be a single fix to exempt such people, but then I fear that would only cause most of the AFK people to simply move to clogging up the Duty Finder and those areas instead.

Something that is annoying the **** out of me though are the RMT Bots, there is no block, ignore or report that I can see... hopefully Square can get on top of this like they did in FFXI, as it's annoying and ruins the experience seeing these leeching ***holes.

Dear Square Enix,

First off I'd like to say I love this game; and that's the reason why I signed up for beta (Phases 1-4) and that is also why I must say some things about the strange way you are handling too many people connecting to the gaming servers.

1) The Queue:
The Queue worked just fine in Beta - why get rid of it now? I'd be glad to wait for 2-4 hours to get into the game; just as long as I KNOW I'm in line to get in, and not receiving an error message basically telling me "Ooops our bad; can you try later?"

2) AFKs:
I bet there isn't a single player (who is on Sargatanas) that hasn't seen at LEAST 20-30 people just AFK around city LightStones or around major "Mission giving" Characters. How is it that the company responsible for Final Fantasy 11 would not think to provide a timeout (or kicking out of idle players) in this MMO as well?

I believe that if you kicked out everyone that has sat around idling for at least 45 minutes these 1017 errors would appear about 75% less often. This is because all of these AFKs that are just congesting the cities and taking up vital server space would be gone; and people actually trying to play would be able to get in.

Just needed to add my 2 cents as I'm a paying client of this game.

Thanks,
~Shukero

omg - you are so so smart Shukero. I can't believe Square Enix didn't think of this. Wow. You must be so proud! I'm so certain that SE will respond to you and not the other 20,000 people that have this same exact idea!

Man. Can I get an autograph?

FFXI never had auto-time out. They had a timer that you could turn off. I'd stay logged in for weeks doing bazaar.

What's an RMT bot? Do you mean gold sellers? type /blacklist add "Name here" with the quotes and all if that's what you mean.

RMT = Real Money Transfer.
