Actually, if you had read the Final Fantasy XIV User Agreement (http://support.na.square-enix.com/ru...1&tag=users_en) you would know that your statement is inaccurate. You do not in fact have the right to "play the game however you wish." Specifically, I imagine that walking away from your keyboard for extended periods of time can be considered disruptive, in that it prevents others from logging in who wish to make more active use of the service.
This is not to say whether or not I agree with the OP or whether the logout timer is too short, or whether it should exist at all, however no one has the right to do anything in this game. You accept an agreement when you log in for the first time, and you continued playing of the game is contingent upon that agreement.
Im playing on tonberry atm. Still getting 1017 up till last night so yeah.... We do need the afk timer,... Well... At least my server does. :P
Tbh I hope they never remove it. Some say its not needed still, but I beg to differ. Yes some of the login issues have been alleviated, but what youll run into now is lag. The more people on the server and the more people in a zone generates lag even if standing there. Now add pets to those afk people with all their sparklies, I.e. carbuncle. This creates lag auto logout afkers will help reduce stress and lag on the server. Besides why would you want to stand around afk for? You cant bazaar and correct me if im wrong but dont you get more rested xp logging in an inn?
Hahahhaahah oh man I can't believe people are actually asking for this to be removed. You guys HAVE to be trolling? Please? I was still unable to log onto Tiamat most of the time due to 1017 until tonight.
Go back to single player games you ignorent nubs.

Less AFKers means more open connections, which means SE will allow more characters to be created per server.
More ACTIVE characters = MORE LAG not less.
Give me the option to turn this off. Sometimes I leave the game on so I can watch and see if anything interesting is happenning while I do other things. There multiple reasons why this is just annoying. Get rid of it or give me the option to turn it off myself like in FFXI.
You don't need a reason to help someone~
