That's why I don't stay logged in constantly anymore 300-350 is typical though :/

I would support a forced log out after 30 min because it would make the game run better for everyone else that is actually doing something. Every MMO I have played besides FFXI And FFXIV has a forced log out. Having it optional doesn't work because everyone will just turn it off like in FFXI so they can AFK in Port Jeuno to bazzar stuff. Since FFXI doesn't have forced auto log out Port Jeuno has gotten full on several occasions causing people to crash since the game can't handle more then 700 people in 1 zone. Then you can't log back in because the zone is full.

Here is why I support forced log outs. If you are afk doing nothing in town you are taking up server bandwidth and resources. The servers will have less lag and run better for the people who are not afk and actively still playing the game. I rather have less loaded down servers and a better game play experience then having a bunch of people staying logged in using server resources making the game run slower for everyone else. Uldah actually crashes occasionally because too many people afk all day there.

I would say needing to be afk for repairs or melds is not a problem. If I shout in uldah for repairs, I can shout once and almost all my gear is fixed within 5 min or less, rarely do I ever have to wait over 5 min for gear to be fixed.

I can only imagine uldah would have much less lag if people actually were forced to log out after 30 min.
