    "Why is it always full?!?!?!"

    Because it seems advertising worked, and A LOT of people want to play so they filled up the servers so able to play.... Sorry for a realistic sarcastic answer but come on guys this isn't anything new to MMO launches.

    Now they do need to get their shit together in Canada (NOT JAPANESE DEV's you whiners) and fix the server structure and add more for all the new incoming people.

    SE really needs to do idle kick

    It's really stupid when people are AFK they don't automatically get kicked or get disconnected when IDLE!. they should have it like Star Wars and AION where you kicked if your not doing shit. So the smart thing for SE to do is IDLE KICK! lol...if SE cant afford to make more server or expand it, then idle kicking is best thing you can ever do, so people log in with out worrying about their server being full.

    You're clueless, aren't you, go visit the Rift or WOW PVP forums, both games which have idle AFK kick, and see the huge number of complaints about 'botters and macro users suing trivial ways to con the game into thinking there's a player controlling toons when the player is AFK.

    IDLE AFK KICKING DOES NOT WORK against those determined to be douches.

    Not the issue, because 'sitting round while AFK' generally won't last very long, in any case the current situation totally entices people to deliberately 'subvert the system' should AFK idle kicking ever happen.

    I say again, it's a placebo, in games that have it it doesn't work at those times you NEED it to.

    IS the issue. If less people are encouraged to sit around AFK then there will be more people in the game that are actually playing. End of story. Right now, my friend and I have just decided that we will never willingly log our characters out again, so long as this system is in place. We're not botters, nor do we ever want to be. We aren't computer savvy and don't want to go on questionable websites to download programs that may or may not have malicious software on them. But we will sit AFK in the server while we go to work and school, if it's going to be that easy. We don't want to spend our few hours of free time clicking Num0. So yes, what is being proposed will dissuade a lot of "casually AFK" people.

    Your argument of "it won't fix all AFKing always forever" is a pointless argument. If it helps, it helps. To use your language, it doesn't have to be a panacea, but it's definitely not a placebo.

    No I am not clueless, i know about the macro users and usage on auto controlled characters. But thats their problem NOT mine. I can careless about that, cause they are the ones who are gonna get banned. I am Simply talking about when your afk and not doing anything, just log off so other people can get in or have SE just do Idle kick and let them worry about catching macro users.
