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

[Bourne_Endeavor]

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

To be fair, they could very well be working on one. It's not easy to simply change code, especially something like this where a misfire could lead to them kicking off people for no reason.

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.

Burger King has a capacity of 50 patrons. You pay for your food, and eat it. You finish eating and then lay down in your booth and take a nap. You have the right since you paid for your service, right? The people who are waiting for a seat who have already also paid for their food just need to stop complaining. You are more important than they are.

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.



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.

Well, they certainly got attention....

I would wager it's not the type of attention they had in mind when they cross posted their reply as a new topic.

People that were intentionally avoiding auto-logout are the reason we have this mass logout implemented.

You asked for this.

While I do agree servers should have been locked when capacity was getting to be an issue. They didn't however so yes I support the auto log out system fully. I'm sorry but your sub fee doesn't rival mine or anyone else's for that matter. We all pay a sub fee also to log on. Please tell me why your sub fee is more important then mine or anyone elses? Also please tell me why you feel like you need to be logged in 24/7 and even during times your not even playing. The last I checked nothing in this game as far as systems goes absolutely /needs/ you to be logged in 24/7 to accomplish things. Ever since the update it takes me 30 minutes to log in instead of two to three hours. I pay a sub too. Why should I wait three hours to log in and play, all while you're asleep IRL and have your character logged in afk crafting or running in a circle?

[Cyclingsofa]

Do you pay a premium sub? I'm not sure why you believe your use of the services supersedes the rights of other paying customers. But forget that I have one question, why do you need to be logged in when you are not playing the game?

Point is their service should be able to service all, we shouldn't be having such arguments back and forth between customers. It's an engineering and system problem, not a user problem. Let's not turn on each other for stupid reasons like this, your argument is pretty much invalid as it's completely besides the point.

We wouldn't have to circumvent AFK kick timers if they weren't in place - And they wouldn't be in place if the servers could handle the load. It's a software engineering challenge moreso than hardware, but they're just treating the symptom and ignoring the root cause yet here we are with the likes of you defending this bollocks. Hurray you.

That's not how this works... Their servers just can't handle the influx of players, that's not players fault. People don't want to log out because there is a queue if they want to play again. It's a catch-22.

Besides, SE want more players to play, not less, so this problem has to be fixed in a better manner somehow - By SE. Not by customers turning on each other over a broken service that can't handle the amount of customers they sold their freaking product to. Please...

Didnt read every post but i support it. If I go AFK but I am near doing something quick, I just move every so often to reset my timer. But if I'm not feeling well and I lay down, for what I think eill be 10 minutes, and I fall asleep, boot me, I have no reason to be on. Let someone else who wants to play be on.

[PharisHanasaki]

Can we get a boot twice a day since people are still bypassing the AFK boot for no reason at all? :P I don't think they got the lesson yet.

Cerberus has little to no q since the curfew enforced, no sign. force kick good. only bad for selfish people.

[Kaedan]

I really don't get people who call the server resets "worst idea ever" or "horrible" or whatever else. Because it's STANDARD across MMOs. The fact that SE is only now doing it is quite surprising.

And no, there exists no valid argument against what SE is doing. 10 minutes of down time in completely off-peak hours is not at all a hinderance and the benefits are quite significant.
