I wonder what to do when in the server but AFK.
There is not so much fun when many of the players an your team is AFK and waiting for the round/teamchange.
Its make the reams uneven....
What is the toughts about this?
Thanks

We may consider implementing an auto AFK kick, with an idle time of 45 minutes / 1 hour or something along those lines.

45 minutes??? O.O We shall put up a Community Vote for that one, with different options.
I do not agree with 45 minutes, reason being: too long. I think Steve_Pick will agree with me but let's see where the discussion goes.

I vote for a Community Vote. Laugh (when this stuff gets implemented of course, prior announcement).

We don't want to kick people who are just taking a small break, going to get a drink, going for a piss, going for a smoke or whatever.

I wouldn't be comfortable with anything under 30 minutes on this. 45 would be my choice as suggested.

30 min would be my choice, as if 3 or 4 are off for a drink,it makes a big difference if you lose that many from your team,these breaks
Seem to happen at round starts, so the imbalance cause problems for one side.However,now that I can swop over,I would decrease the difference by one.if it helps with the balance.
In the UK,at work, You only get 10 or 15 minutes for tea breaks .lol

Laugh Laugh Love this. Actually though, I take as long as I want/need OK

I've added a new Idle-Kick script to the Wake Server for testing. I'm not sure if it's functioning but let's see, it should kick after 30 minutes, unless you are an [LS] Member in which case you are exempt. It will only start functioning when there are at least 6 players in the server.

Like this, as had a lot of hassle from one guy (invincible) for not kicking idlers,As there was no limit then, wasn't too keen to do it, in the end Carbon and I decided to go for it,as it was really bad

In that case the teams were completely disbalanced. Our team counted 8 idlers in a team of approx 20 players, while the other team was fully active
