Institute Temporary AFK Kick Timer

[GinTama]

Sounds like laziness....seriously. Beta tests ran fine....and you should have expected EXACTLY what is happening. Your SE for gods sake and this is FF of course there are TONS of players. Why would you even make an MMO and not expect to need an AFK kick time, and a login Queue. Beta testing is for testing....Release day is for playing a game that we payed for and........we cant play?!?!? WTF

there is a login queue and the hell with afk kick timer, i dont want to be kicked just be cause i go afk for 15-30 min. I plan to pay for this game but if I get kicked even once while I am afk even if its 24 hours I'm out. Subscribing to the game means for me i can play when I want and how much I want. How I use my time online is none of anyone's business.

It wouldn't be that short of a time window, obviously...... >.> Usually it's about after an hour of being AFK when you get kicked. And you are not the only one paying for the game either.

An hour? So I guess if I want to make dinner, I get kicked off? Or if I take a longer shower? Or run out to get carry out for dinner? Or the myriad of other activities that could take an hour but don't mean that I'm done playing for the night?

And all this just to solve a problem that won't exist in a month? A problem that really isn't a problem in the first place, since the number of AFK people is ridiculously small? A problem you all have latched on to as the One True Reason™ we can't get on, despite having absolutely no evidence?

Cripes, I hope SE doesn't take you seriously.

I'm going to take a stab in the dark here, but I'm willing to bet you've never seen this. You may find it informative.

I hope the following people watch this
Joy Rider - Behemoth
Strawberry Lion - Ragnarok
Ceol Ashwin - Sargatanas
Yuko Skydancer - Balmung

Maybe they'll stop afk'n while they sleep and let someone else on =P

No, they won't. Some people are just born d-bags and can't "share" and don't see any point or value in it.
Although, this really is SE's failure to adequately develop a solid back-end. Perhaps they didn't have enough time this go-round - it's been what 2 years now?
There is no excuse on SE's behalf - but the d-bags mentioned above don't have to exacerbate an already maddening problem.
