Auto-kick AFK players after a short period of time

(Old Man) #1

The player depended vote system fails as many people are too …slow to vote. Please add auto-kick.

Make it a minute or two long AFK period and then auto kick.

P.S. No idea if it is possible to AFK games to level up your character, but I wonder if that’s the reason why some people leave their avatar logged into games.

Just a theory: It may be possible to AFK to get the “win/complete X games” missions, or the “daily play mode X” or “first win of the day” awards. Perhaps that motivates them.

Alternately, they stay logged-in from the last game because they were lazy or forgetful, in which case it might be time to do something in the lobbies so that players have to “opt in” to the next game. (Not necessarily the same as locking in their merc choices.)

How can you disagree with this idea is beyond me. Have I annoyed some stat padders nest?

20-30s is far too short, like WAYYYY too short. 2 minutes sure, maybe a minute and a half. But not 20-30s.
