Hi,

why is there a limit for how long you can be afk and after that get kicked from the server?
its not that the server will get over populaited, and its always nice to have this game running in the background for a while and return to it once in a while over the span of a day

I'm not going to lock it, nor warn anyone of you. I'll just delete all of the hate you were showing in the past days.

Now let's get back to the actual thread owner's first and only intentions. In behalf of all these hate replies on your simple question, I apologize Zydian05.

So here's your answer: it was hard coded that way by Blizzard. This was due to the high traffic and how some retail servers actually had a queue to get to your character screen. That's one of several reasons it was in place.
Not that we have such population, but there isn't really a viable reason to remove it either.

Who knows, it may even create another bug that players could abuse and get banned for.
