It could help the server load by disconnecting people who are AFK for a long time (like 10-20 minutes)

That would help, but the time limit should be 30 minutes plus. Because some people are called by someone to do something (ie: chores). Or when you go and take that extended bombing run that went horribly wrong.

just log out and log back in. I agree, set a good timer. 30 minutes? IMO to long

agreed.

The reason is - normally, i would log out, but sometimes I can't be arsed.

Which is bad for server traffic. If I was in one of those can't be arsed moods, then it would log me out. No problems.

I agree with wind.

Sometimes when you load a map it takes a wile, due to the ammount of people on it, alot are AFK.

Nice Suggestion, maybe they could make afk servers

Having accidently stayed logged in for more than a day during one of the BWE's when I missed the [X] button and turned off my monitor

... I agree with the idea of an idle disconnect. I think 15 minutes in town, 30 min out of town (and then last night... I fell asleep while in the Breach... yeah)
