Against "Simultaneous Logout Measures"

[alimdia]

I am sure they were testing it across the data center to see how populations would be affected on different servers before making adjustments.

Once again the chicken littles were proven their fears were unfounded. It must be horrible to only surround oneself with negativity. I feel nothing bit pity on those souls

Could you be any more condescending? I don't get what's with Balmung people in this thread and their condescending attitude, as if no one but them are allowed to complain about anything.

I just went unsync Pharos Sirius alone just before logout.

After been able to log back in, I was still in the dungeon. Did anyone actually test if dungeon session are canceled by the auto-logoff?

So why exactly can't a dps queue for an whole hour, when the message appears?

Everyone get kicked, not the servers are going down. So it will handle it like a disconnect. You are back in dungeon if you relog within a specific time and you start a queue new if you got kicked during a queue.

I thought they removed that though?

Not yet, just the simultaneous logout measures - you'll almost certainly see a quick post on the Lodestone when they lift the 30 minute AFK timer (though they could always decide to keep it around like many other MMOs do even during non-peak concurrency times, in which case it'll just be "a thing" we learn to work around).

They need to keep it, honestly (the afk logouts). The AFK individuals bloat the server populations through the roof...
