Why do people still AFK at Aetherytes?

What does it matter to you? It's no longer affecting you so what other people do should not concern you.

No, I just find it really odd people are still doing it. I mean, we have no way to sell items on our personal Bazaar like in 1.0/FFXI as we have Retainers.

It's really just a matter of convenience for most. If I gotta go afk to walk dog, make food for the kid, or run to 7-11 it's just less hassle then logging out and in every time. I'm sure others feel the same for going to sleep or taking naps. It's just personal preference really.

Actually it does still affect others. Especially on the half dozen servers that haven't seen character creation open up at all since the maintenance last week. People going AFK in low level areas are partially responsible for the character creation locks.

so you're saying people can still afk in higher level areas? lol. anyway, I wouldn't blame current server locks for people afking. I am sure there are far less people doing it now after last weeks maintenance. SE just needs to unlock them like they have on some other servers.
