Hey Devs, how about booting afk players?

[superkrill]

No, he's not asking for a boot system, he's asking for the devs to boot afk players. Entirely different.

well whether it's automatic or manual, you can't honestly say manually booting won't help. it'll help

[_C-a-e-r-i-t-h_]

Logging into the game 16 hours before you plan on playing is the only reliable way to be able to play the game when you want to play it.

The problem is not with the people who do this-- they aren't helping any, and sure, I'd rather they get booted so I could be on instead, but the problem is that this is the only method that works.

Don't blame your fellow players. Any countermeasure that's implemented can be just as easily countered and broken.

The fault is with S-E not giving two shits about NA/EU players and not doing a single thing to fix this.

Not it isn't the ONLY way to log on. Everyone else is sitting in this invisible queue smashing 0000 to get in.
Of course the fault is with SE, but you guys AFKing are making the situation worse.

EVE online implemented a maintenance period everyday, the servers go down for 30 mins. do this

Afking 24/7 as many MANY do in my server just shows how rude,greedy,ignorant an narcissistic teenage gamers are in this game . It really is sad that I can ONLY play this game as my friends as well when it comes evening time in Australia, because Americans are logging off. (some) For last 3-4 days the exactly same people have been afk in same town 24/7. It really is disgusting. Personally I wish we were able ot train mobs to them an get them killed, since its only way to get at them. Of coarse since there is no death penalty in this game that really wouldn't have much of an impact

I just now logged into Hyperion. Took about 30 mins.
