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

YAY fantastic Although can override it by staying in crafting menu

I don't know how many remember it but you could that is can turn off the auto logout feature on Final Fantasy 11 to those who played it you could either send a predetermined time up to 90 minutes or just turn off the feature completely and there was no doomsday scenarios as these people are saying happened Personally I was able to log on all the time I always had mine off cause I didn't too be auto disconnected, not the auto logout was a big things I know but it wouldn't bother me much what they should, in my opinion, do is make it like FF 11 where and you can set the time or turn it off completely.

In all my years of XI, I don't recall a single person leaving it enabled when they were aware of its existence, but hey, I guess if it's already a thing, might as well leave the option up.

[Krokov]

oh I agree I always turned it off so I found a pain having been disconnected because I left for X amount of time. it is good because as others have said it's easy to bypass just do something makes the server recognize you as being active and not just standing still.

RIP legacy servers, there's already long wait times during prime time. With an influx of players and character parking this is really going to suck.

People can now transfer off legacy servers.

Excalibur queues are frequently less than one minute, even during peak hours. Only exception is Mondays, since the certainly not incompetent brain trust over at the XIV dev team somehow thought placing all the resets on Monday was anything but the dumbest possible idea ever. And that's not changing with or without auto logout.

why do you need to stay logged in when you arent actively doing something anyways? the game only kicks you to the start menu it takes whopping 1 minute for even the slowest PS3 to log back in after an auto kick. the servers are stressed enough as it is without people needlessly taking up space when they are doing approximately nothing

stupid idea is stupid

Waste of resources removing this, along with increasing server-strain whether it's an issue or not. It's far different then 11's complete play online disconnect that took forever to log back in, this simply kicks you to start screen.
