    Afk Timer Excessive?

    Does anyone else think the AFK timer is a tad excessive? I mean I think the game definitely needs one but 30 minutes isn't really very generous, thats not enough time to run tot he store really and it barely covers watching a tv show. It just sucks because usually it takes 5 minutes to get in game from clicking on the launcher and thats if theres not a queue time.

    It's not a huge deal but I think it would be nice to be bumped up to an hour

    I personally think 30mins is about right. Now the login issues are getting sorted its a 1-2 minute time to log back in. Well for me anyway.

    Honestly, since they increased the capacity of the servers during the maintenance a week ago, the longest queue I had to get online was 3 people (only had two queues total; every other time I was able to log on and get in-game instantly). Were people really still having trouble logging on? From my experience on Gilgamesh, an Auto-AFK-kicker wasn't really necessary any more.

    30 mins is perfect. If you need to hop up and use the WC real quick, grab a bite to eat, grab a drink, or take a smoke break, that's plenty of time. If you're going to be gone for 30 mins or more, you probably should have just logged out anyways.

    I love how people did nothing bug rag on SE for not having an AFK kicker. Then once they add one, there are like 10 topics calling it the end of days because they added it. Classic mmo player base, love it.

    I would have liked to see a 45-60 min auto-boot timer. Sometimes I get up to cook dinner while waiting for instance queues that usually last about 30 mins or so. But I guess this will help with some of the congestion.

    Good lord, 30 minutes too fast? i'm irritated that it's not a 15 minute timer!

    If you're gonna go watch a tv show or run to the friggin store you most definitely should log out, you should not be taking up a server spot.
