To the people who are logged in overnight

Agree completely. Well put

Would be nice to hear a reason WHY they won't implement an AFK timer it that is all that is needed to alleviate server congestion and allow a natural flow of simultaneous online population.

Really is infuriating a child could figure this out.

I want a T-shirt that says "I logged out during 1017" If people logged off for sleep/work/school then logging in would take everyone 10 minutes instead of all day for some. I paid for the game also. I bought 1.0 CE and bought Realm Reborn just to get pre order. I still log out. I'm surprised people are so selfish towards fellow fans and gamers. Yes it sucks, Yoshida explained why it happened and they are fixing it. Lets be nice to each other while we wait it out, and log off. I wish they would just flick the servers on and off a few times a day just to clear out the people sleeping and at work :P

If an afk timer is implemented, and you still can't log in due to the world being full, what happens then? Someone just created a thread stating there needs to be a play time timer that kicks you after a certain amount of time actively playing, dumbest idea ever, but I am sure a lot of people will support it if the worlds are still full after implementing an afk timer. So, what happens after afk timers are in game, everyone is actively playing, and a lot of people still can't log in because the world is full, do you ask these actively playing players to log out after a few hours because they the world is full and you continue to QQ. Where does it end? Do you people honestly believe having afk timers will prevent the world from filling up? I'm pretty sure even with the afk timer, a lot of people will still complain they can't log in because the world is full, so it really won't help anything at all, it will just cause more people to QQ about something else.

That's how you are acting towards the afkers - spiteful, envious and bitter. There is nothing redeeming in yelling at them for doing what they do, there is no great moral goodness on your side, you are just picking on people who are suffering as much as you but are trying to alleviate the pain of the terrible launch in a way that allows them to enjoy the game on their time, with their terms.

TL;DR: I need to go look and see if I can get past the grayed out start menu again, stop tearing down afkers because you're envious of them for playing the game when they want >.>

PS: To hell with you, 1000 character limit!

If the world is full and everyone is actually playing, then good. This thread was only started because of people being logged in for 10 hours and not playing. 5,000 people aren't all going to be playing 24/7. Spamming log in would still be easier because the flow of people logging in and out would be smoother.

No...

Nope...

Log in b4 you go to work

[whistleklik]

You can't really blame them. I wouldn't log out either if I could get in. Direct all your vitriol towards the incompetent developers and not your fellow players.

ok so sometimes you have to put things into crayon so people understand.
So you live at a college and you pay for a meal card to eat, now the student population can not support the size of the cafeteria they built. So it only seats 230k people but 350k people want to use it. So everyone attempts to go but only 230k people get inside. Most eat and leave but some stay and sleep at their seats. So the other 120k people who tried to eat start getting mad about the cafeteria being full when they go to eat and some of them decide to stay as well. Now less seats are avail for those who eat and leave. The people who do not leave keeps increasing at this rate the cafeteria that was for eating now becomes a hotel for fear they will not get to eat again if they leave. People who do not leave are not the root cause of the problem the lack of cafeteria size is, but they have made the lack of space smaller and created a larger problem. When the only time they leave is when the building shuts down.

I was hoping that with the news of the new servers people would lay off a bit, seems it was a wasted effort.
Thankfully the afk kick timer will be implemented so this bs hopefully won't be repeated again.

I have just as much trouble logging in as much as the next person but I don't go about making the problem worse by staying logged in when I'm done playing.

To all of those QQing about the "terrible" launch, clearly you haven't been around for 1.0 or for many MMO launches period.
They're fixing things in a timely fashion. Deal with it.
