I was # 289 in queue so thats incorrect.they have a basic mitigated queue system. Currently its capped at a very low number somewhere below 200 i beleive as ive yet to see over 187. And then its only in short spurts. While i agree its not hard to wait it out another 5-6 days for the new server base, You cant expect even after adding a couple servers that its going to resolve all issues with logging in, continuing the global queue will just further help mitigate but allow fair gameplay.

they also need to boot idle players who go afk to take naps so they don't get stuck out...
tater that is a excellent idea, As it would also help with the current congestion. But as things go atm i dont think thats something they have any coding built for yet, as even in FFXI they didnt have any sort of auto-kick timer i dont see them implementing it here either.

They did have an Auto-kick Timer in FFXI... but you could toggle it on and off....![]()
Yep... think the max idle time was something like 30 minutes... forget. I toggled it off myself, as I would routinely go AFK to eat and stuff while the LS would gather for events. Then there was that whole Abyssea leeching thing people did... lol.
At least with XI, there were actual reasons for AFK'ing---there are NONE in this game. I have yet to see any perceivable benefits. You can't bazaar, there's no need to track the DoT/Repop cycle of a 24 hour NM.... really, what is the point? All they are doing is securing their access while not playing, stealing that access from a would be active player.
Thats exactly why they are doing it...

yeah.. and exactly why SE needs to come up with a way to stop it. Imagine it wil be an on-going issue--might even be a mechanism to help combat the RMT camps. Had to turn off shout/yell because of the spam that was starting up from them (wonder if they've started botting already?).
I wonder if this will make the game go FTP... maybe SE broke the game again.... i dunno... doubt it.. i'm just mad
