Restart the servers!!

[nnamite]

Going on 7 hours just today alone "server full" I know why because everyone is staying logged in afk. So why cant they just do a restart everyday give others a chance to play?

*Update almost 10 hours now...what a joke

Is there not a timeout for people who are logged in? If they're afk for a certain period of time does this game not kick them out? I would hope they have a system like that in place...especially now. I've been trying to log in for about an hour now with no luck....seems I can only play at late night hours. I hope that people can't stay afk for an unlimited amount of time....

also check out my petition your not the only one who cant login, especially when your limited to timeframes you can play. --- > http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...l-Queue-System <---

I agree entirely with you nnamite, if they were to implement a afk-timeout then restart the servers it would reduce(if not solve) this garbage issue of not being able to log in during peak hours due to afkers

unfortunatly viscaria no idle kicks yet. They "Claim" they may look into one later, but if they follow the footsteps of FFXI then they will simply Not have one. Lets just hope thats not the case.

Nope no time limit they can stay logged in all night and day as long as the client doesn't crash and that's a problem. There is no afk boot.

As much as I hate the 1017 boss, restarting the servers will penalize all those that are actually able to play after being fortunate enough to elude the beast.

not really as it would force log out everyone and then anyone that is really interested in playing would simply log in after the given time of servers being down. This would remove probably close to half the populations of every server currently logged in as I have seen countless of those little red "AFK" chairs next to peoples names while walking through the towns and aetheryte camps

I would find it annoying to get kicked off half way through a dungeon.

Restarting the game "every day" would piss a lot of people off.

wasn't suggesting a daily reset, as I had said prior " implement a afk-timeout then restart the servers" but upon further reflection and reading other posts this would prove to just allow more bots in, instead of those of us that actually wish to be productive inside the game.
