Only issue with this is : who's late night? Late night EU is prime time NA, late night NA is morning EU. And there are many of us who have to log in during those late times to get to play due to the congestion of the servers. While it would boot AFKers, it would cause issues for those running late night dungeons.



As already mentioned: There are ways around AFK timers as well

What would prevent me from weighing down a movement key, or even making a keyboard macro so that my character would run around in circles without any input from me? I could just hook up a controller and tie up an analogue stick so it's shifted in one direction, and even use a turbo button feature to spam button whatever.

To be totally honest I think SE are right in that an AFK timer is a placebo solution. I much prefer them focus on upgrading the software and hardware of their servers than hastily implementing an AFK timer that would solve nothing. If people want to AFK and stay in the game, they find a way.

The issue is that SE didn't provide adequate servers for the player demand. Hopefully next week that will be fixed somewhat, but until then we're all in the same position. There's no need to start putting blame on people who are equally affected by SE's mistake, it just leads to a witch hunt and in community fighting and the best part? None of this will matter when SE has fixed the server overload, because it will be fixed, just like every other game that had an appalling launch due to server issues.


While we can do our best to make sure we are not the ones contributing to this: the core of it is upon SE to fix their servers. Until then, we can merely minorly bandaid the issue as we are a small fraction of the entire population of the servers.

I don't believe debating who is right or wrong to go about certain methods about getting game time in is going to get us anywhere but to bitterness among the community. A roleplay community is already a smaller portion of a game anyway, so we should do our best to not grow sour with one another. While we may not agree with each other's actions: We have to agree to disagree.

I state this because, while I am a fan of debate, it seems much of the conversation that is going around it taking a turn past debate and into negatives.

SE is supposed to be fixing this issue this weekend, let us all hope that they do so we can put this issue behind us and all enjoy the roleplay potential that this great realm has to offer. I know I am looking forward to all the possibilities. I hope that those who are unable to make characters will be able to: also, keep trying. My friend got that message a few times then late at night (4am EST) he was able to make a new character onto Balmung.
