The ongoing problem with going AFK in a scenario

Post#1 » Tue Nov 16, 2021 5:23 pm

Scenarios for a while now haven't allowed players a chance to safely go AFK for more than 10 seconds, before being kicked out and put on the quitter cooldown. What I propose is either a small 3 or 5 minute increase in how long you can be afk, or a reduction on the quitter cooldown, maybe both. Either way it would certainly make scenarios alot more player friendly, especially since you really need to grind them out for certain builds you need or want to get.

3 to 5 minutes sounds a bit extreme, given that a sc lasts only 15 min on max.

I guess so, if there's anything you can add that could make this better go right ahead

If you get kicked out after 10 seconds (TEN!) of being afk, record it, I doubt this is true.
In any case, don't make up numbers to have a point, this is no base for a discussion.

This is not true. Usually I play while I work and need to be afk even on scs and I don't get kicked so fast. Check if it's not some addon bug or something like this.

As far as I know I've had this problem since I started playing RoR, with and without addons. It could've been possible that I got kicked by players for being afk, but every single time I go afk I'll get kicked in seconds, so pretty difficult to come to that conclusion

I'll go ahead and test it out whenever I'm free since that never came to my mind in all the times I've been afk

ok, so I've tested it, so far nothing happened for at least 30 seconds, I'll keep track of the amount of time I go afk in scenarios before I come to a conclusion

What you shouldn't do is staying in SC spawn, if afk.
