PC Official Server 1808 So I keep hearing of many players being AFK. How is this possible? I thought you were automatically kicked out after 10 min of idle time? ---

You can set up a micro that will perform a set function at set times. It’s almost like a farming bot. Once it’s set it will perform a function as set. ---

As far as I know, AFK timers were only introduced today, in the TestLive build, and is not currently enabled on most servers. But like Icehuntsman said, they could create a macro or script to completely circumvent the timer. It’s very easy to do so. ---
