So I realized that the no kick after the game is over is a really good idea, and the devs did a really good job with that. But I also realized that some people leave their Minecraft open in a lobby and stay AFK there. I got this idea from like TTT servers. Where you would be put into spectator mode after a certain amount of inactivity. Give me your feedback in the comments ;)

This is IMO a very good idea. Not only will it prevent AFKers to raise their amount of games played (idk why they would want to though) and prevent other people from getting points from them at spawn.

The time should be around 10 seconds if someone AFKs from PreGame (around the time for someone to get a sword from spawn, go back to the podium and kill the AFKer) and 2 minutes InGame.

Hopefully something like this happens. I've accidentally done this a few times as it was implemented, it'll be good for new members or some that're just forgetful.

You have my vote, I really like this idea :eek:

Someone was playing on my alt (I lent it to them) which had 1 win and 2 games played, and they went AFK a few times and now it has like 1 win and 5 games played :/

I'm not sure if that's so good. If you are in Pre-Game ok, but when you are in game with maybe your friends. You just wait for refill and do nothing and then you will get "kicked" in spectator modus for nothing and it just will cause rage!

No, it would be a 1 game idle time.

What? I highly doubt you and your friends would just be standing there afk waiting for refil. That is just an awful idea. Anyone could sneak up on you at any time and kill you.

But than it's your fault and there is the chance that you survive. So it's better if you have a chance to survive when you are afk and come back after a few minutes.

If you're waiting for refill you're most likely running around parkouring over the chests. At least my friends and I do. Anyways, there could be a message like 30 seconds from the kicking that reminds you to move or you'll be kicked, similar to a deathmatch countdown or lobby ending countdown.
