Remove auto-logout feature

[Kiara]

We do not have any plans of eliminating the automatic logout feature at the moment. However, we would like to keep an eye on the conditions now that it has been implemented, and if we determine that adjustments can be made we will look into extending the time before you are automatically logged out.

Hi Camate,

Thanks. I just wanted to say I don't mind an Auto-Logout, but I vote for "1 Hour" for Logout, as the ideal sweet spot. There are times something comes up and then get some food or other things and come back, and 30 minutes feels a tad too short. (We miss out of potential /tells or FC / LS Chat when we get logged out.)

Thanks!

IMO its even better to make the autolog optional.

Agian that goes completely against the point of the afk system, its not there just for fun there is a reason for it.

To be fair increasing the time would an alright idea, then no one can complain because it wont affect DF hardly because most people get a group whiten the hour , but i would say no more than that.

Having it on by default. Most people would probably not turn it off. I admit that my "free gameplay style" comes from playing FFXI and FFXIV 1.0. It might feel good anyway if they increase the time to 1+ hour. But for me it was very surprising that SE actually implemented this. And im one of those who log out when going to work or when i sleep. Just find it a bit annoying during the day to not be able to follow things that comes up in LS/FC or whatever, because of also doing things irl back and forth.

Considering that the standard MMO logs out AFK users after 10-15 minutes, 30 minutes is more than generous, if not gratuitous. The fact that there was none in place at launch was simply oversight. If you're away from the game, you need to be logged out to reduce undue stress on the server for those that are actually playing. It's really a simple matter.
