Can someone tell me why everyone is upset about the logout timer?

I don't really understand. 30 minutes is excessively fair.

I've played alot of games that had a 5 minute one. Now that's crap. 10 minutes is acceptable. 15 minutes pretty good. Anything over that, I consider great.

This takes strain off their server, and makes room for people, you know, playing. People who log their character in and park it overnight, take up server space that is not needed. There's no reason to do this. Your character no longer sells stuff.

How can this be anything but good? It cuts down on the server load, future downtimes will be much, much shorter, it frees up cities and areas, so better FPS.

Overall, it's a great improvement that I thought would be here day one. It was a rookie move by SE to not have it day one, so many problems would've been solved by it.

So why do I see all these upset people?

I mean, even if logged out...with one click, you can be back in in 15 seconds.
