Please tell me the auto-login "feature" is only temporary

Does the AFK timer make any kind of warning noise before it logs you out? While I'm happy there's a timer, I can understand the concern of people who might alt-tab to say... browse the forums... while I'm the duty finder which can take more than 30 minutes. As long as there's some warning notification so you know to alt-tab back in, I don't see a problem.

I've had days where I've taken a 30 minute poop. So, bad idea.

I wanted to throw my two cents in here with my specific circumstances. I personally could benefit from the timer being 45 minutes.

For example, I've been spamming Ifrit HM to get a bow for the past few days while my daughter is in pre-school. As a DPS I have a longer wait time than a tank or a healer, which I'm not complaining about because I use it as an opportunity to do other things around the house. The average wait has been 25-35 minutes, and longer at times.

I enjoy the ability to look for a group while I can get some other things done. I realize that housecleaning punctuated by a 10-minute MMO fight here and there is the epitome of a first world luxury, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy that luxury.

I'd be fine with bumping it up to 45 minutes; I think anything more than that would be too long. Either way, this isn't going to cause me to uninstall the game and cancel my subscription or anything, just a different viewpoint to add to the voices already here.
