Add AFK logout timer to Limsa

Maybe just use a different city. Most if not all of them have an aetherite shard and retainer bell literally right on top of them and I really don't see what the big deal is.

They should add World Transfer to the expac cities as well, a lot of people use Limsa as it's the most convenient place to go world hopping shopping.

Appreciate all the support for adding Limsa AFK timer and the thumbs-ups. Just for the record every evening since 5.2, there has been a login queue. Not to mention the Tuesday 'lag' city, people needing to use VPNs more, plus on-top of the frame rates getting shot for PS4 players.

People have tried to come up with fictional things "oh it's just a new patch it'll go away". We've been through a full a cycle, than a sweeping virus came around keeping people AFKing more in the game. At this point they could support re-adding a game-wide AFK timer to free up more network resources that already are getting strained.

I had a log-in queue yesterday of 20 people. That's sure some strained resources right there.

...and if players who were AFK for a lengthy period were kicked automatically from the server then there's a good chance that there wouldn't be a log-in queue in the first place, saving you precious seconds that would very much add up over time.

We should've just let Leviathan have it.

Heresy!!!

Sorry if my question is stupid, but what all these people are doing in Limsa? I mean, why Limsa?

Many reasons:
1. Admiral Merlwyb Bloefhiswyn
2. It's the greatest city in the game.
3.

Because the market board + retainer bells are literally right there at the Aetheryte plaza. If your GC is the Maelstrom, that's only one aethernet jump away, too.

Okay Abby calm down...

On behalf of Oliver Nexus and Wind-up Nexus on Balmung, I am against this idea.

I wouldn't mind an AFK boot timer, but I'd almost rather see them redesign the other cities to make them more appealing and to encourage people to actually use the one they want to hang out in. LL is just the most "convenient" one with everything you need basically being right next to the aetheryte plaza, so it attracts the most people...and people aren't forced to log out, so it's a compounding problem.
