    Suggestion: Now that we have a player slot limit, I believe that the server should auto-kick people who are AFK for a certain amount of time.

    Reason: This would prevent slots from being wasted by people who are AFK'ing for long periods of time. It would allow other users to join.

    Any Other Information: Nope

    Well, for one, more then half of the server is donators, and for two, that would just cause more spam in the chat whilst there is already 100+ players typing in the chat. Making communicating 10x harder.
    I don't mean to get on the negative side, but that is just my opinion.

    The kick message IS off, but when people are kicked/banned, it shows "______ left the game."

    If there's an auto-kick, you guys do know it doesn't have to be a short time-frame. Chat wouldn't get spammed if the kick was after about 60 minutes of inactivity.

    Again, with the 100+ people on, a lot of them are AFK. In this case, a lot of AFK = a lot of spam.

    ;

    Even if set to kick after 60 minutes? I don't think they would ALL go afk at the same time. :b

    The leaving game message can be disabled too I think.

    No, there shouldn't be an AFK auto kick. Many people AFK with a purpose (farms growing) or other things. This isn't a good idea, people should just donate and exceed the limit. 10$ to gain permanent access to a server isn't much. I don't think it would be fair to kick people out, imo.
