One Minute DC 'Forgiveness' Time

[Neofelis]

My suggestion is a simple one. One minute of forgiveness so that when someone disconnects, they can log in again without being kicked from the game. I believe this is necessary so that people with poor connections can play without worrying about their internet dropping for ten seconds, causing them to instantly lose. I believe it is also a reasonable amount of time in that if someone combat logs, the person only has a minute that they can stay offline without autolosing, and the person who was fighting them can just wait for them to log on again.

It is called PvP Logging and alot of people will do it.

I do like the idea of the one minute forgiveness time, but instead of actually disconnecting, your client/body/whatever will stay in the game until you have reconnected. That way, there are no combat loggers and if your internet hiccups for 1 second, you can just rely on the forgiveness time, hop back in the game and resume playing.

That would be a good idea. But how will they do it?

Then we're away from pvp loggers too, this would be nice

I agree as long as your body is still in the game, I have been disconnected a few times and got back on with in 30-40 seconds (Damn internet going out) but of course I still lose
