    I think the main problem is that the people who like to AFK use the whole "The que isn't bad so just log in" argument,
    yet they refuse to do it themselves. Doesn't that seem a bit of a contradiction? Why preach something when you
    yourself are completely against doing it?

    If you are seriously hell-bent and have to be logged in as to not jump off a bridge IRL, then I guess stay logged in.
    If you are paranoid enough to where you HAVE to see what your FC is saying at all hours of the night/day. Ok.
    If you think 30 sec - 1 minute of your life to log back in is absolutely heart shattering and unacceptable. Go for it.''

    I don't get it. There are no bazaars, you get rested exp logged off. I would really love to see a reason besides the
    "I just want to" that I've seen 250x now. Just give me ONE. And I'm not talking about waiting for DF etc, I'm talking
    about the absolute NEED to say logged on for 16 hours while you sleep/work and don't touch the game. I want to see
    a reason for THAT.

    -Seeing FC Chat: Void. You are not going to be able to scroll back up 16 hours worth. Unless your FC says 1 sentence every 15 minutes.
    -Wanting to beef up your playtime to ridiculous levels: Idk. That's just odd to me, not sure of the benefit.
    -Cuz I paid and I wanna stay logged on: Ok. Still doesn't necessarily explain anything, as you are not PLAYING with the money you paid. You are sitting there.

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

    It's a tad bit more convenient and it doesn't really hurt anyone else currently. That's one good reason. It's nice to be able to sit down and not have to wait those few extra seconds to log in just like it's nice to have a computer that boots up in 15 seconds instead of 30.

    But even if there isn't a a good reason, why does it matter? It's what people want to do. If they aren't hurting anyone else in the process, leave them alone.
