I'm sure they do data analysis to understand the percentage of active characters logged on as opposed to the total number of characters registered on a specific server during peak hours, and it's never going to be 100 percent. I don't know of many MMOs or multiplayer games that do not have an inactive timer. In a situation like this, where people logon and don't logoff, how can we know how many people are actually not playing? I'm sure a timer would help a lot. Say the server maxes out at 75% of total registered users. What is happening now is that same 75% is holding the server and the other 25% is never getting to play. Are there 25% logged on right now who aren't playing?
