As much as I want to fully agree with you, after looking at threads about this for a while there are some people that are playing on worlds that legitimately still have 1017 issues during peak hours. For those people I can understand why they want the timer... I don't have 1017 issues anymore on Hyperion so it seems like just a band-aid for me but that's not necessarily true for others.

That being said, I'm for increasing the kick time to 1 hour. I'd rather not have an AFK kick at all but under the circumstances (some worlds still getting 1017, digital downloads being re-activated) I can see the point of introducing it. I just feel like it's currently too short and punishes people that are fully intent on playing but may have had something unexpected come up.
