What they are saying is all you would need to do is auto-run in a corner and you won't get kicked. I am personally against an idle timer, they aren't needed if you have the capacity for the amount of users logging in. Yes right now SE don't have that capacity, however they are looking to rectify that, and once they start charging the game will cover the cost of this increased capacity, whilst still covering the development costs and making SE money in the process, the upside of no afk timer is that we can go to the shop for 15 minutes without having to log in again, we can have some food and get straight back to playing.

Also when they increase capacity there will be less afkers because we won't be getting 1017 any more.
