Anti-idle disconnect
Seriously take this out of the game. By far one of the worst decisions z8 has made so far.
So you have implemented this into the game to stop farming because they kill idle characters for free kills and easy gp/exp. It's so damn hard to set something heavy on a movement key and have the idle cow run into a wall for 150 kills straight.
This is a bad decision because I can't even minimize to ventrilo, move somebody into my channel or other channels on vent and maximize back into game before coming to a screen telling me I've been disconnected for idling for too long.
Take it out, it doesn't affect farmers in the least and you punished the ENTIRE community (EXCEPT for farmers) by adding this.
This anti-idle disconnect has no reason to be in the game and only causes headaches for people who get kicked by it 10+ times a day. There is already a kickvote option to kick people for idling.

come back
im in lobby with a message sayign i was auto kicked -.-"
or at least extend the time
No, there is no reason to extend the time. This was implemented to stop farmers, no matter what the time limit is their cows will be running the entire time.
There is already a kickvote reason for idle, and OBVIOUSLY z8 trusts the kickvote system since they have done NOTHING about it for the longest time. -
i kno, they already solved that problem anywaysNo, there is no reason to extend the time. This was implemented to stop farmers, no matter what the time limit is their cows will be running the entire time.

Takes you that long to alt tabbed in and out?
No, I do other things while I'm minimized and sometimes I move multiple people and chat where they want to be before I reminimize. Iirc somebody said the timelimit is ~2 minutes which I seriously doubt because I'm only minimized for 30-45 seconds at most.
edit: Also, yes, I have a POS comp as well but it has no problems alt-tabbing in and out for any game except for CF. -
K was just curious.

I get more aggravated with getting kicked out of a game room for being idle too long than from actually in game. Sometimes I just like to sit in the room with my clan mates and text chat or go get a drink and come back. I always get kicked back to the lobby. It isn't too bad in locked rooms because nobody will take my spot but in public games it can be a real pain.

I don't think you can be kicked if you are typing ingame, Yea I have been kicked for long text's. -
what do we do with the people who go afk for a game, not caring about deaths just to get "afk exp" ?
90% of the time when you try to kick an afk guy everybody on the other team will f12 because its a free kill, and EVERYBODY in this game is greedy when it comes to afk kills >.> -

This is why they need to fix the kickvote system. -

I meant being kicked from the "room" not the game itself. If you are just sitting in the room without actually joining the game you get kicked after two minutes I believe. You can avoid this by clicking in and out of storage periodically but it still sucks because you can't leave your computer for a couple minutes and stay in the room. -

Well you shouldn't idle in the room lobby anyways, give the spot to somebody else. -
every1 should b having the all the problems you guys mentioned. a simple solution would b just to extend the time from 2 mins to 5-7 minutes. i mean a brotha cant even get up and go take a **** without being afk kiked. z8 wouldnt have implemented this autokik if every1 wouldnt have been crying about farmers in the 1st place. and look now, the farmers and still farmin with many anti autokik methods, while the rest of the players are losing even more exp for being afk for 2 mins. just to give a few examples of the antiautokik methods, one can download programs from mp.gh that aid in farming, u can tape down a particur key, lets say the "W" key, u can also keep pressing shift repeatedly and windows asks if u wnna auto hold the shift key, then go to options and change "W" to "shift", etc.......
the farmers are still getting theirs', but are you getting your? -
