Here's a fun experiment: try making a character on a JP server, and see if you have any trouble logging in. I'd be willing to bet you don't.

Then try looking around and seeing how many "AFKers" you can spot.

I'm currently on Valefor looking at a good dozen of them, in just this one spot. This thread's logic dictates that this means there are probably hundreds - if not thousands - of them, and I shouldn't have been able to log in at all!
