It's time to implement AFK Kicks

[Kelryth]

its not a wrong that people are not logging out cause they wont be able to get back in because they want to be able to play the game for which they paid for and want to get the moneys worth...it sucks to other people don't get me wrong but I don't blame them one bit..

I do. The AFKers are choosing to stay in and not logging out to let other people play the game while there off doing something else. This is called greed. These people are being greedy. Their thoughts are "who cares if others can't get into the game when I'm not playing if I don't log out" Their parents obviously never taught them the concept of sharing.

They should just have a popup that comes up after 2 hours if inactivity asking if they want to stay connected. Give 30 seconds to respond and then kick. Yes there are a few people that might get around this with macros etc but the majority would not IMO.

It's gotten so bad I just created a character on the Japan servers just so I can play, and that character is higher level then my 'main' character I use to play with my friends on NA servers.

I have no idea how you are getting on, it is 5AM here, one hour from the server time of the JP servers and it is still full. I haven't been able to get on for almost three days.

depends on your view, I won't go into my view as to why it's wrong as it will just start a catfight :P

isnt it considered exploiting when they stay logged in aka afk inorder to prevent from getting locked out like all the rest of us honest and respectfull patrons?
i hope all these afkers wont beable to login for the same amount of time they were exploiting !!

no, an exploit is taking advantage of a bug or other programming errors etc. considering the having no AFK disconnect was a design decision as it sits currently there is nothing wrong in SE eyes for someone to be AFK 24/7

No 15 min 2 hours wouldn't solve much.

Woooooooooooo finally made the que after 1h of spamming...

This is true. Every MMORPGs should have an auto-AFK-kick feature, it's the basics. If you add that to the server size problem they are trying to fix right now, it indeed makes a lot of problems.

I mean.. what would be the point of letting someone being AFK all day long ? They ARE NOT playing anyway ! The ONLY reason people wants to stay AFK all day long is because they don't want to log out and not being able to log back in, issue that wouldn't be that bad if they weren't doing that in the first place ! They are in some making worse the situation they are trying to avoid.

Got to say they need to add a 15min timer I logged out early this afternoon and logged back in two hours later same person stood there exact same spot. This needs fixing before anything else get rid of all the afkers in game.
