AFK Changes

[Djinnrb]

After 5 minutes you should have "AFK" next to your name. After 5 minutes of being AFK (10 total minutes) you should be taken out of queue if you are in a dungeon(solves afk commence waiting). After 15 minutes of being AFK (20 minutes total) you should be disconnected from the server. There is already a queue system to login to the game but it is hard to even get into that queue. Please make it default so we dont have to keep clicking buttons to login.(I dont mind waiting 20 mins in queue)

This would solve SLOW queue times for dungeons(DPS) and the server would be much easier to get on as well.


Like if you agree!

There's like 600 threads about this already. They already said they won't be doing anything regarding AFK until after their planned fixes on Wednesday.

I know there's lots of threads, but...such a short afk disconnect would be lame. What if someone's kid got sick, and they're in the middle of playing, or they have to take a massive shit that takes awhile? Seriously, sometimes I'll be playing for hours, get up, make dinner & come back...I might be gone for 30 minutes-doesn't mean I should have to log out. It's the people who are afk for hours on end who should be kicked out-the ones who don't care about the thousands of others trying to get on. But, life happens & you shouldn't be kicked off for that sort of thing. btw, I'm new to mmo's, so I have no clue what other one's afk is like.

It wouldnt matter. You would be able to log back in right away. We wouldnt have these server issues if it kept kicking all the afk people out. So if you have to go make dinner then instead of going afk and getting kicked just log out right away and then log back in when you come back.

Sure make it an option like FFXI auto log out if you are just standing there doing nothing

[EdwardSlice]

Definitely need an afk timer but i would say more like 20 mins afk before been logged out.
