error 1017

An actual queue. I don't care if I'm 2000th in the queue... if i can just leave the queue running and go do something else for awhile I'd be happy.

The resolution to the server issues is simple.

BOOT EVERY CHARACTER THAT'S BEEN IDLE FOR 30 MINUTES OR LONGER.

Done.

PROBLEM SOLVED!

I'm completely shocked this is not part of their server management protocols. It resolves myriad problems and is an expectation MMO veterans have for this genre.

The way it is now, you're requiring players to never log out because it's often impossible to log in. Half the players probably aren't actively playing at this very second anyway. I leave my game logged in overnight when I'm sleeping or when I'm off running errands or whatnot so I don't have to bang my head against a wall for the five hours after I get back to my keyboard.

Booting the inactives makes all the room in the world for the players trying to log in. This is especially helpful on the Japanese servers which now are flooded with English speakers (like me) who couldn't get into the US/EU servers due to really craptastic server management by SE.

Fix the lack of anti-afk systems. Get them in place and kick afkers out.

Erm all of the above!

On a positive note. I would like to see the jewelry that we ware... surely they can make earings and rings visable on toons, even necklaces would be nice.

[Matrinka]

I think you can see the necklace on my inactive cat-girl.

[Gordilio]

Yeah, but isn't that part of the body piece?

[Derceto]

The terrible tab target cycling and the horrible click targeting detection.

[Kirasha]

You sir, need to be hung by your toes and slapped around with a wet towel for a good few hours. You are aiding in the issue of afk and idling players yet make a post about it on a forum made for stopping it? For shame sir, for shame.

[Matrinka]

Yeah, but isn't that part of the body piece?

Sadly, I don't know for sure. Due to having 2 service accounts, with my main character being "inactive," I can no longer access the Lodestone to check it out.
