My character was idle while i was busy typing away with my guildies in guild chat, i was taking a bit of a break from exploring and just relaxing for awhile when Pop! ive been disconnected for being idle, even though i was in the middle of a conversation, can you make it so even if you havnt moved your character for awhile but are still active in chat you wont get dumped out of the game please.

I already posted this. It did not get much response.

The current behavior sounds like either it is a bug or an intentional anti-gold seller feature. Either way, I agree that you should not be considered idle when typing and gold sellers should be dealt with differently.

I agree in principle but you get like a 60 second warning before it boots you that counts down every 5 seconds or something ridiculous like that. Is that not enough of a prompt? It also only dumps you to the character select screen.

The notice can be hard to react to quickly enough. For example, I am typing, the text buffer is 75% full and I am trying to finish my post. I miss the timeout. Now, due to another bug, the guild chat window is empty…

Why kick me to begin with? I am active, I am just not moving.

Outside of the World PvP maps chatting should keep you from being kicked.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t. ArenaNet thinks typing is for kittens!
