Not I, don't speak for me.

Okay let me rephrase... most sane people wouldn't mind having this implemented.

If we are AFK, we are just holding space on the server unnecessarily and for no reason other then to make sure we can play later rather then logging off... an AFK timer would make this a non-issue... therefore we have no reason to be against said timer unless we just want to be douchebags.

I stood by SE and justified every problem they had, but the fact that they wont code in an afk timer is just lazy. We paid money for a product that isnt working after official launch. If I thought fixing the que was easier than simply adding an afk timer, I would say to do that. Saying "we'll do it next week, maybe" is a lazy and insulting response to the biggest problem your game currently faces. Basically you dont want to take the time to try a simple solution now, in an attempt to appease your player base. You want to devote your man hours to frivolous balancing issues and wait until next week when it will most likley still be an issue.

The gaming community is watching you take a game that could have been amazing, from something that was reviewed as total trash, and thanks to poor technical planning and now putting off your number one problem of logging in, will forever put yet another black eye on the FFMMO and SE names.

heck afk timer as a temporary measure. make it even something along the lines of 4-5 hours afk it boots ya and it would have a great effect. been sitting here for 4 hours trying to log in.

I'm going to say no too.. sorry. And someone saying it took them three days to finally log in. I find it hard to believe. Yesterday i logged in and out 4 times, 1st tries got in..

I don't really get why some people need to be on for over an hour doing nothing.
Why would it be so bad to just log on again? Why do you need to fill that slot while not playing? What's the advantage here?

Just wish some who are AFK would get the heck off. I've spent my entire day off trying to log in and couldnt. Since tuesday i have been considerate in logging off when im not playing and then play the freaking waiting game when i go to log back in. But now no one wants to log and i havent gotten to play all day. Next time i wont be so considerate.

I admit, I actually thought of staying logged in to keep my spot. Then consideration came, and I logged off.
Haven't been able to log in for the past two days. Part of the issue is the part of our community that's selfish; the other is
needed AFK timers and active ingame GMs to boot RMT and bots.
Im for it!
AFK timers please!

Thanks much Yoshi P and development team for your time and work. I love FFXIV ARR!
When I'm able to log in ^^;
