This. When they made the change that allowed for AFK players to stay logged in, I thought it was a baffling idea. And to be honest, it feels like one of the worst decisions overall in the game. I don't know of any other game that lets you stay logged in like FFXIV does and as expected, it is very easily abused.
I support the idea of them reverting that change, even if people can find workarounds. Your average player doesn't know the workaround so.

By the way, this is like a week campaign.

As frustrating as lag is, I think the campaign is a nice idea. gives people who've run out of sub money a chance to try new content. Its inconvenient for us but there are other things you can do in game and gs will still be around after the week is over while most of the free users will be gone

i understand why they're doing this and even think it's a good idea...it's a great way to help get people that haven't played in a long time to be re-interested in the game before 3.0 but that being said....i got booted seven times last night in about three hours before i finally gave up. all i was doing was trying to mine and wasn't anywhere near "heavy areas" such as the gold saucer. omg i hope the rest of the week isn't like this xD
