    SE already stated AFK people aren't the cause, therefore kicking people won't do anything, they filled up faster because more people are getting on now. Funny how that works, huh?

    Most people that play on PC does - Even ignoring the semantics, most that seriously play the game uses at minimum a Parser while there are LS/FCs that uses full fledged bots that won't admit to it.

    Resolving AFK Character Issues

    "From several users on some of our more congested Worlds, we have received requests for a feature which automatically logs out characters who are AFK for an extended period of time. We are actively looking into the implementation of such a feature, but have decided to first concentrate our efforts on increasing the number of Worlds and optimizing the Duty Finder servers."

    In short, it is something that they are working on and will be implemented but unfortunately is not on the top of their to-do list at the moment in lieu of these server problems.
    There's no contradiction in it as that snippet doesn't say:

    "People that are AFK are the reason you can no longer log in."

    In order to contradict what Yoshi stated earlier, he would have to say: "The reason you can't log in is because there are people AFK for long periods of time.
