Auto-logout exploit?

[Amberion]

I've got something of a tangential question to this, which is that my computer, when running this game, makes my room hotter than the Sun. How can people stand to have that much heat generated when they're not even playing?

Some people actually decided to use an actual computer, and not a radiator to play the game on. Just because you have a crappy cooling system, doesn't mean others have.

BTW, What is with the need of all you afk-timer supporters to know what/why/how others use their game?

True, I could have typed that without snarkiness, but it still stands. If you have a good cooling system, it won't effect your room temperature.

Actually, the fact that the computer is making his room hot tells me that his cooling is working very well. That means all that heat is outside of the case instead of staying in it.

I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.

I hate auto-logout but I get why they had to do it. With the free game time running out and the new car smell wearing off I doubt servers will be as congested as they were at launch. I love afking in games. Sometimes I want to take a nap and listen to the battle and zone music in the background (I'm lame). Other times I want to see whats going on in my ls while making dinner. Who cares, we don't need the afk police reporting legitimate players in the crafting motion. Instead lets report the bots that move in circles all day long where mobs that drop diremite web and fleece spawn.

You can also do it by speaking to your retainer, or any NPC. Just keep the menu up.

I have good airflow.

Hence my room being hot, and my PC being cool.

The need to have the auto-logout work more broadly is had just by logging in. 9 times out of 10 I'm placed in a queue, double digits during peak times and single in off-peak. This isn't during the weekend, this is 9 times out of every 10 logins. I literally clap and squeal when that 10th time comes around. But, the queue is always waiting for me to come back. Sure, those other people are paying real money to play but, hey, so am I. I'm no more nor less important than they are. And yet I'm having to wait all because those people clearly don't see it that way, that their monthly fee is somehow better than mine and entitled to more benefits. Square's fix for the auto-logout couldn't come too soon.

You can make a tab that only logs specific things. Having one for pure FC/LS is not hard.
