Please. You couldnt be further off from reality if you tried. For two weeks I've been dealing with on average 3 to 4 hour queues. Today I was 1,327 in line at 5:15pm Pacific time and it took an hour to get through. My second time a couple of hours later took 20 minutes. Everyone I know has seen a drop of login times, by 2/3's. That's a HUGE improvement. I knew the AFK-exploiters were making our problems several times worse, and people were justifying it. Then I watched people cry about the auto-log out when it was announced this morning in /shout chat and on facebook FFXIV groups. Well the sky didnt fall, they didnt do this during prime time, and it made logging on MUCH better.
