Freon's inbuilt defense against afking is to boot players who get punished for camp 4 times in a row, but we have that disabled.

Because you'd get kicked only after cca 30s of idling. (normally it's 2 - 3 min).

Aren´t 30 sec enough for a active player ?

Or do you see a problem if someone has to download a map ?

No that is checked by your ping being 1020 (if you're still dlding, loading etc.). However we usually idlekick after 2 - 3 mins, 30 secs is too short. However it's true that the inbuilt idlekick is bypassabe by putting smth on your keyboard.

I may overact a little but in my case i go spec if i have something important to do or i post s short "afk" if i know im back in a minute or two.
Let´s say my minute takes three and then i get kicked cause i was not sitting 17 minutes (look at above screen) in front of my monitor pushing buttons ?

Sorry but such a bold behaviour needs at least a warning....

On #3 idlekick is set to 4 minutes right now. But as I said if you put smth on your keyboard etc. it will bypass it. Same as in spec - if you spectate someone you won't get idlekicked.
