Request: Boot inactive players so active players can log in

Fix queue system and boot afk, very simple square. This is stuff that should have been sorted in the beta.

That's the thing, though. This game should not have left beta. Anyone who's actually gotten to play should see that it's not complete. At all.

The problem is that when your boat is sinking you should man the bilge pumps, not grab a bucket. In this case, adding more servers is like grabbing a bucket.

Quote from http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/73680:
"From several users on some of our more congested Worlds, we have received requests for a feature which automatically logs out characters who are AFK for an extended period of time. We are actively looking into the implementation of such a feature, but have decided to first concentrate our efforts on increasing the number of Worlds and optimizing the Duty Finder servers."

Analogy: Adding cars to a popular rollercoaster ride won't solve the problem that people are sleeping on it and preventing other people from enjoying the ride. Also, it might result in further instability with the ride itself.

I don't care if the servers have to be down for a bit for them to implement this obvious fix, they need to take care of it now.

Thing is, implement the damn AFK kicker for a month, then remove it when servers stabalize. Its easy as that. holy fuck the coding cant seriously be that hard.

It is completely unfair to those that want to play to get stuck not playing because people have decided that they have other things to do after they log into the game so they leave their characters standing in town while they go about their business.

Totally agree.

I didn't know it was possible for a company to lack this much common sense.
