Tsk. There are already scripts out there available to push a few buttons for you exery 15 - 20 minutes. This resolves basically nothing in a big picture.
    But whats the point? Why make the script? What does staying logged in get you? Now that no one has issues logging in it serves NO purpose.

    Who cares - someone want to be logged on while AFK more than 30 minutes it's his / her choice.

    No macros but you have other tools avialable, from simple controller with autofire to some other more advanced ones ...

    As a conclusion - I personally see almost zero benefit in having this feature implemented since the last maintenance I'm not aware of any issues with login into the game and it's more like a placebo for all those who were before begging and screaming for this feature to be added. And again - if someone want to AFK they will despite any countermesures and the minority who AFK-ed "unintentionally" will not make that much difference if disconnected after 30 minutes. You're more likely to be DC-ed due to the lossing connection to PSN or internet anyway in a long run. The impact to on other players is minimal.

    .

    I saw it ALL THE TIME, people just standing there not responding in town, I'm sure many did do it in an inn but just as many if not more DID NOT. All the excuses in the world don't change it, a city crowded with unresponsive players is bad for the game, point blank period. Having a second monitor or playing netflix while afk does not make you an active player, at best your the standing still guy that MIGHT occasionally notice something in the chat box, thats not the same as an actual person playing the game and moving about the city like a living human being! I swear some of you guys use the most piss poor excuses
