Get rid of the Auto-Logout already or make it an option in the menu.

Good for you, thing is that's just how you play. We don't have a ton of people anymore so taking the auto-logout out of the game is not going to bother anyone since there's plenty of room now. Clearly you have some problems if you think your play style should be imposed on the people that want to have this much loved feature from FFXI and FFXIV 1.0. Grow up.

What does this have to do with play style? Lol, if you're logged out it's because you aren't playing.

(the ones calling for auto-logout to end) You must the same the people that cried endlessly about culling in GW2 (while playing on a toaster) then when it was removed said "omg why is my computer crashing?""why is there so much lag" etc. You need to be saved from yourselves.

This is a positive thing for the game as a whole (and All MMOs) and easily trumps whatever personal inconvenience you are stretching to invent.

Best necro I've ever seen. No need to apologize.

Astounding... And yet we're stuck waiting until "sometime after 2.3" in order to get the stupidity of Ready Check addressed. (Forgot there was an update to this. My overall point still stands though.)

To add to this, I could maybe see this four to six months after the PS4 release but to do it before hand is asinine at best.

Not sure where you got that. From Camate's post here:

"Greetings,

I have some additional information about the upcoming adjustments to the Ready Check feature to share.

The development team is currently working on the below:

Changing the feature so it cannot be used while in battle.
Changing the feature so the name of the person who initiated it is displayed.
Addition of a "wait" or "hold" button.
Changing the feature so when you close the Ready Check window it does not automatically pop back up. (The tally results will be displayed in the chat log when doing this.)


The team is currently looking into whether they can implement these prior to patch 2.2."

EDIT: Wow.. You even responded to Camate's post about the Ready Check, but you still somehow got "sometime after 2.3"?

I'd forgotten about that. Still though, it's possible for 2.2. That doesn't mean that it'll be 2.2 at the latest.

Like I said in my edit though, while I don't agree with someone just parking a character online 24/7 and taking up space, to do so when a new influx of players is due within a month is beyond stupid to me.

We don't know the number of people that actually play this game but its safe to say it's was less than early access and launch. The feature was added because of all the people, since they are removing this I think its safe to say its not a lot of people playing where this would become a problem.
