I get the need for the timer and until this morning, I had no issues with it at all. This morning I was in the arena duo'ing Fabled Vallon Zek, certainly not a fight you can AFK in. I was ported out from the AFK timer despite being very actively engaged in the fight. I'm not talking about a secondary toon sitting in the back of the room, Graecus, my main and tank, was booted out of the arena for being inactive and I was very actively engaged in staying alive.
It needs some adjusting... Seems some zones should be excluded. Arena, tower...

Adjustments can and will be made, those are some sound examples for exclusion, since there is only one way to get in them.

I may have an entirely incorrect understanding of the issue the timer was meant to remedy, so I may be off base, but there is a fair bit of foraging required for any number of quests that become even more annoying than clicking on the forage button every minute or so already was. While it's not really a huge deal to have to zone out and in quite frequently, it feels very unnecessary. Especially in zones that nobody xp's in. Specifically N.Karana, Plane of Growth, and Western Wastes for Earring of the Solstice foraging. I am sure there are more zones where people forage or fish but don't grind out AA's in.

You do not need to move in and out of the zone. You need to move in the zone. |

Also, not sure how much movement is necessary because I have moved around some and still been booted. |

Would it be possible to add the Pally epic Fishing area (OOT, Overthere, Gunthak, Nedaria; and the Druid epic Skeleton Song zones to an exempt list for the afk timer? Those require a lot of standing still unfortunately.
Appreciate it.

I've been camping a mob for a part of the necklace quest. I have my eye on the screen as I work at my computer, so it's not like I'm actually even AFK, and getting booted to the Nexus is to say the least annoying. I mean why would a L80 get kicked from Frontier Mountains simply for feigning death at a quest camp?
I honestly don't understand why everyone has to be punished for something only a few people were doing, whatever that was.
It intrusively breaks the game's immersion, and to be blunt its an obnoxious fix to counter whatever it is you've trying to prevent.
If it's AFK exp farming, parse out whether or not someone's getting significant exp as part of the script. If so, then continue said script.
