Pve based afk timeout timers shouldnt exist. As a father of 3 young kids, i shouldnt be ounished for stepping away to care for my kids. Getting booted from a gm isnt exactly enjoyable, when i return and have no ability charges or no special or power ammo. Stepping away to feed a 9 month old baby, shouldnt create a penalty to the player. Pvp should absolutely keep afk timeouts.

Too bad we've still got people just AFKing in Gambit and Strikes for even easier weekly completions. I can sympathize with life stuff interrupting your gaming, but the timers are there for a reason. Just try to take care of possible distractions before you sit down for a session, or, as I've had to, try to schedule your sessions when the majority of distractions won't be an issue, like when the family is asleep.

Maybe don't be engaging in activities with 30-minute commitments to other players if you have infants to look after. Please, explain how this is fair to your teammates. Games are meant to be played as a leisure activity.
