    Dumbest idea ever. No offense. Not you, just the idea. I payed for the game just like you. I should be able to AFK all day if I want (I dont do it I am playing the whole time). The problem should be fixed so we can all get on, not by turning the paying costumers against each other for a chance to play a game we all paid for. If I couldn't get in, I wouldn't blame people afking, I would blame SE. Your solution would just let them get away with not providing an entertaining experience for everyone. It's like saying people who go to the bathroom at sporting events shouldn't be allowed back in because other people who couldn't get in want their seats now. Now if all those people paid to get in and couldn't, you dont blame the people not sitting down and watching the whole game, you blame the management for selling more tickets than seats they had.

    I'm blaming both. You paid, I paid, we all paid to play this game at least at this point just for the game as we don't yet have a subscription fee.

    People need to make room for others. I suppose you would be cross with somebody who was taking up two seats on a bench when you really wanted to sit down, why not be cross with those people taking up a place in the server when you want a play. You paid for it.

    And yes, square needs to address their server limitations, everyone should be able to get on; but that's not a reality now, now its about triage.

    Wait... What???

    Most games have that Anti-AFK system, and none of them had any problem with that, ppl did not stop playing because of that, ppl learned either how to counter it, or just don't go afk for more than 20~30 minutes... Your making a wrong comparison there... It's more like ppl leaving the sporting events to do whatever they wanted to do for say... an hour and then wanting to go back... Or going to a movie, leave it in the middle of the session and just go back in another session like 3 hours later to see the rest of the movie, just cause you paid for it...

    Well, whatever... Just my 2 cents.

    A timer will help. It won't correct the problem 100%, but maybe it can reduce the login delays down from several hours, to something more reasonable. This is not about people idling to use the rest room, getting a snack, answering the phone, etc... this is about people who stop playing and do something else, leaving the game idling sometimes for hours, simply so they can play again at a later time. Kick all these people off and I'm sure nobody will have to wait as long as we have been to login.

    What I'm missing here is why the hell isn't there a "Queue" server? Nearly every other MMO I have played has one and its a pain in the ass to get the "World is Full" message and go all the way back to click "Start" again, just completely unnecessary. I know people who played WoW on Skullcrusher who were 1000th in line in the Queue server and waited. They maybe weren't happy about waiting but at least you could WAIT with your spot saved so you KNEW you were getting in. This whole World is Full and no number of people playing, queue or kick back to the opening screen is just ridiculous.

    They have queues just for the first say 200 people as i've never been more than 200th in line.

    Wait so you can get the Server is Full error when you're in a queue? So what's the point of the freaking Queue?
