    we need it after the upgrades go in place. you do understand they are adding new servers and upgrading the data centers. when they upgrade the data center the login server and queue system will be affected by these log ins. the duty find is gonna be spread across more hten just 2 data centers as it is now. which will promote stability and alow more users to use it. The artificial cap that they have implace on the servers to promote stability of these systems will be lifted hense letting more people in to the servers themselves and into the queue system. Along with other people changing to the new servers. After the upgrades are in place you may still see a queue on your server but you will not see 1017 because the queue system will be able to hold more players, and the limits will be lifted off the servers.

    at this point i think we agree on we need one but i dont feel they need to waste development time on it now they need to focus on the big fix and make sure its working first.

    My question is wh are you even wasting time and energy arguing about this drivel? SE is working hard to fix what they can because this is a deal maker or deal breaker enterprise business wise especially after 1.0, regardless if it is the servers being maxed out or the 1017 being a universal bug, either way, people cannot play and until that is resolved, aren't there better things you could be doing?

    They have a team of programmers who could work on it while the network admins work in the data centres, I am a network admin and network engineer by qualification and know exactly how useless a programming team would be to me in server setup and maintenance.

    Why not get the programming team to work on the AFK system, while the Network and server teams get to work on the servers themselves?

    It isn't a waste of resources to delegate jobs to their required teams, it's good management practice. All of the work they are doing right now is network related. So what is the software or programming team doing?

    the network stuff is actually already done the framework for the servers is uploaded everything they are currently working on is software related stability and internal testings of the game environment
