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

Actually, keep the auto log out, it discourages people from afk'ing in dungeons and with CT having 24 players, I guarantee you that there will be at least one person who is going to try to do this again.

In one of the letters from the producer, Yoshi did a description of what a Queue while logging in, and the 1017 error are.

The Queue while logging in was described as a Queue that was made when too many people are trying to log in at once, and queues them up to keep the lobby server from overloading. It is only the queue that is too full, not the world server.

The Auto Logout feature will actually have a negative effect on the queue (adding more to the Queue) because of people having to log in again after they got kicked. If it were removed, it would not make the queue get any worse. The only thing about logging in that has a potential to get worse by removing the Auto Logout feature would be the return of the 1017 error which was the error for the world server being too full. I don't think we have a lot of danger of that happening.

I still think it's a valid feature. Players just need to move or do something to stop it from happening.

The only thing I might ask for is a timer display of some sort perhaps starting after 10 minutes of no activity showing how long you have until kick. It should only display on your own screen, and disappear when you move. No one else should see it. The 20 second warning you get now is short and I would like to see something better.

What you guys dont understand about removing this would mean less times for you loging in.think about it, many people just sitting around holding the the servers for 6 hours tops while they go to work and you cant get on. This was a problem since day one and this auto logout function help fix that problem. Either login or never.

edit excuse me.

I'd like to read the reasoning of the people that are so against the auto logout feature.

What reason do you have to stay in game when you are not at your computer other than augmenting your, or your parents' electricity bill?

Remove auto logout and release my 1017 friend free!

Everyone I know uses the crafting menu or npc shops to avoid the auto-log out anyways. I'm not sure how it makes a difference either way.

Because a vast majority of people aren't going to bother with that when they know they can log back on in a couple minutes. The only people who are doing those things are the ones who feel they will be afk for more than 30 minutes, but are still playing. That's really not a problem. I feel they made the time limit too short, but it's no big deal to me. The whole point was to stop the people who were remaining logged on 24/7 because they would not be able to get back on again. That problem has been solved, but none of us has any data as to how much the auto-logoff is effecting that.

[Ecks007]

Hmm, just curious, but do you people doing the complaining know there is a rather simple way to avoid the auto-logout?

I do it all the time when I know I'm gonna be afk for an extended period of time but still want to keep my game up.

[Fiosha_Maureiba]

I support the Auto Logout feature.

Revenant's Toll
Quarrymill
Any City near the Retainer Bell (except Limsa, you unloved pirate city)

I want my Quarrymill gathering leve nodes to show up! Why aren't you running toward the FATEs, why aren't you chatting, queued, or crafting? Why won't you let me see my leve nodes in peace?!

edit: Aw man, this is in the Website Feedback section. Like putting a disc in another movie's case. It's still in your possession, it just takes longer to find later. OP, why you do this?! So much rage feels this morning.
