They don't do squat with server hardware as you seem to think they do.
Still developing and implementing the Afk timer would take away from resources that could be spent on the new upgrades. It takes more hten just hardware to complete this process. You need internal testing of stability of the new servers. All this takes man power. No sense wasting the time building an afk timer boot system. This would have to be completely programed on their platform for the game from scratch... it probably at this point wouldnt even be ready to be implemented let alone tested before the hardware upgrades would be in place.
