Players that go AFK in Island Sanctuary is a Problem

[Ilisidi]

There is one in pc version also. I do not see any player names except those on friends and whomever I am in a party with (just their initials). Way less clutter on screen

I don't mean that. There's four filters that you can set to target or ignore certain kinds of usually targetable objects, regardless of whether their name plates show or not. Those for are also available on kbm, but there have been enough other solutions posted for kbm already.

I would like the option to not show any PCs in a five malm radius or so. So I can see what emote the NPC makes and who of them is and who of them isn't head tracking the WoL.

OR ppl could not AFK in an instance....


For you information, my default selection is set so ill always target the npc/object first so for me it doesnt really matter, its just annoying - especially on whales etc..

Many things here are annoying, I don't care to be a Karen so I choose wisely on what I cannot filter enough to satisy me GL getting the afkers dealt with though because it's been the same thing for the almost 7 yrs I have been playing hehe..

no-one should be kicked for AFK in their island sanctury. That was supposed to be the whole point of it existing. Somewhere to chill out and relax (until your 30 mins is up)

Moving the exit spawn point to the side of the building would be better. Then it wouldn't matter how many players have been kicked AFK and whether or not they're mounted. They won't be in the way.

The kick is need to free up instance server space, just as you'll get kicked from a dungeon after 10 minutes AFK if you were in it solo or with Trust/Duty Support.

Other players want their chance to be in their Sanctuary as well.

from the time i started working on my island i have had no trouble getting to it except one time when the servers were overloaded them it just took me a little while longer to get in guess they are crying about the servers not being big enough for everyone to get in easy well they will fix it sooner or later so good luck with that.

I suspect that eventually the auto-afk-kick will be feel removed and that's it's just there to handle the initial wave of interest.

Sounds like blowing up for sake of complaining. People are always going to afk.

I know there are many players working on their Island Sanctuary since it's release, but those that decide to AFK on a mount and are kicked out after 30 mins is a problem.

Problem being is those that go afk mounted, sometimes on HUGE mounts then covering the NPC and most players, in Moraby Drydocks. I know, I know you can simply use your shortcut function key to target interactive objects/NPCs, but it's still annoying to have these mounts clustered there.

Might want to do a set up like you did with this years Moonfire Faire where it auto dismounts players that are kicked out on these mounts from Island Sanctuary.

Press the X key on the keyboard... then you can click through the Player and his mount and click on the NPC ( or whichever other keybind you set, X is standard )

Yes people should be kicked in AFK in that island, since it is a limited ressource, and you can exceed the amount of players being able to be on the Island due to it is instanced.

The kick is need to free up instance server space.

I am aware of the WHY, it still goes against what we were told was the very point of its existence. All this getting kicked stuff is getting very tiresome.
