Against SE Auto-Logout System. calling for a peition to end this!

[Rinuko]

I'm not against a AFK kick system. I'm against a full server kick though.
SE needs to place a actual AFK detect system in place

[Valcarde]

You know, I really did like not having to wait 3 hours to get into the server last night, since folks like you got the boot during the day.

Its almost like people trying to avoid the queue simply made it worse for everyone else and yesterday was proof that, yes, the queue was exacerbated by people bypassing the AFK system.

So... cry more, please.

If there are 10,000 log-in slots on the server and 4,000 of them are taken by AFk cheats, the servers capacity has almost literally been halved for no good reason. Those people are not present. They have no reason to be on the server taking a slot. Yet here they are. They're not going to be back for 8+ hours, then they'll play for 2 - 3 and go afk again.
If they were not AFK and people were logging out as normal after playing, The queues would move at a steady pace. Alas, They do not, because there are thousands of places locked that will never move.

Its got nothing to do with the number of created characters because under normal circumstances, They're not all logged in at once. Thats the problem. Characters that shouldn't be online because there is no player behind it ARE online. Take them offline and the queues are normal for an overpopulated server.
The restriction exists only to prevent additional players from getting on the server.

Keep the forced logout. Stop being so entitled OP. Go read the ToS. I can't be arsed to link it again. You accepted any interruption of service and agreed SE can do whatever they want. And ffs it's 10 minutes. If you expect to be on a game 24/7 seek help. That's unhealthy.

Also, your OP is a copy paste of your post in another thread.

This is by far the worst idea SE has come up with. FFXI never had this problem
1. They should have restricted character creations UP TO the server Capacity.
2. Now that it is too late, they should invest in servers to support the increased populations ( not everyone is going to move servers, and we shouldn't be forced to)
3. I pay a subscription to be on the game 24/7 unless its maintenance, this move only shows they want me to pay a sub, and log in when they want me to.
4. It should NOT be considered an EXPLOIT for staying logged into the game, FOCUS should be on WHY the Servers CANNOT handle the amount of characters they allowed to be created.
5. It is no secret SE makes healthy profits and well deserved, but it is a shame they have gone this far just because of the bottom line, this does not reflect QUALITY, this is a CHEAP move, and making the players who are all paying customers take the heat.

Why make a separate thread about it when you have already posted it in another? It wouldn't be because you want attention? No. Surely you have a better reason.

[Natashio]

Well..it's already implemented. Just like it and take it ¯\_(ツ)_/.

[Krokov]

Don't forget the forced log out is already been made knowing that it's temporary measure.

[Eldevern]

Sorry for the OP but you don't pay for 24/7, they never said you will have a 24/7/365 access. They are very explicit about the fact they can kick players, shutdown servers, they can do whatever they want since they respect the law and you agreed with their ToS. Plus with your purchase, you agreed to have a fair use of the ressources they provide from their point of view.

Even if their idea doesn't look to me like a solution, and they lack of anticipation, I can't agree with your way of complaining.

[NorthernLadMSP]

Totally for the auto log out. If you find a way to circumvent the rules and cause grief to other people in doing so, you deserve what you have coming.

For those of us that don't play the system, this is no issue.

4. It should NOT be considered an EXPLOIT for staying logged into the game, FOCUS should be on WHY the Servers CANNOT handle the amount of characters they allowed to be created.

Sorry, but if they implemented a temporary measure to log out people that go afk after 30-min so people on queues can have a chance to play and you find a breach on that system to remain logged in even after the 30-min it is an exploit, cuz if you followed the intended system you should be logged out after 30-min afk.

[Hyperia]

This will go away once they patch the exploits people are using.
