Against "Simultaneous Logout Measures"

[Reinha]

they have 1min to click the check box "Im not afk" and then hit okay or else they get dropped even if interacting with an npc.

One minute? If you never go afk for more than one minute, do you have bathroom breaks at your desk or something? Half an hour would be in line with the afk logout measures already in place. That I would prefer over this silly mass kick of the entire server with only 1 hour of notice (less than DF queue times occasionally).

Im going off the thought that someone accused of afk exploiting would have the afk icon/auto running to walls so they would be gone a while already.

You said this:

add a new option to report: AFK exploiter

which if you click this it causes a menu to pop up on the screen of the accused which they have 1min to click the check box "Im not afk"

People can have their afk flag set to activate in 5 minutes. You can choose it in the settings. Some other player could report them after seeing the icon, which would give that player only 6 minutes away from the computer. Ever. Other not-so-smart players could report everyone at a summoning bell, since that's one way to avoid the timer. Giving 1 minute to respond is not enough because it's not against the rules to afk for 29 minutes or less even if you are talking to your retainer, are in the middle of a cutscene, auto-crafting or running against a mountain because you couldn't be bothered to steer your way across the map and went to make a sandwich instead while the character auto-runs.

Your idea is bad.

Your idea is bad.

Heres a new idea then: Make the current auto log out not a shitty invisible macro of the player action /logout so it actually cuts connection and boot all the abusers using interactables.

And it is a shitty macro of the logout command as you even get the usual command error if you let the kicker go. Thats the real reason people get away with staring at npcs.
