    Can we remove the AFK logout timer now?

    With dungeon queues getting longer and longer I believe this needs to be removed.

    As someone who enjoys watching TV in another room and turning up my volume while waiting for a queue, Id like it removed because when you queue as a dps or as anything for pvp the queue can sometimes take longer than the AFK logout timer permits. Does SE just expect us to sit there by our screen while waiting for these ridiculous queue times?

    tl;dr Please remove it SE, I think your Playerbase and Servers are stabilized enough by now.

    Given how ridiculously easy it is to work around (talk to the Retainer bell/sales NPC, cannot be booted), they really should just remove it. And the 1000 character limit these forums have been stuck with.

    I just put something in to place that moves the stick on my gamepad so my camera keeps moving around. I agree they should remove it

    No, if you are too afk to move a step every 40 minutes, you are too afk to respond to the dungeon queue.

    Oh please no. Before someone says "but the server are better now!" Please remember that is in part because of the timer.

    Comprehension is hard. Point is, if you're not able to wait for the queue (as it can sometimes be longer than the AFK timer) then you probably should just do what you're doing and not be logged in - since you clearly want to watch TV. It's annoying waiting for that AFK DPS, anyway, in the queue.

    Terrible reply. Easy thing to listen for the sound that comes up when your queue "dings".

    They can just come and move themselves if they're in danger of timing out. We have enough of an issue as it is with people being afk doing something instead of waiting for the queue to pop.

    I would assume that the reason the OP turns his volume up when going to watch TV is so he can hear when he finds a party and accept it.
