Question about the login timer....

[JPWiser 251]

How does it work exactly?

 

Sometimes I log back in with no penalty, sometimes i disconnect and go afk for 5 mins and come back to a 99sec timer.....

If you switch servers you get the login timer.  If you reconnect to the same server you disconnected from there is no login timer.  I think it's more like 150 or so seconds, but it starts from when you log out.  Before it would add the timer no mater what, now they made it so that if you crash or the server restarts you aren't stuck with a timer.

If the game crashes, you still get a timer

I've always had to wait a ridiculous amount of time when my game has crashed when trying to rejoin the same server

Does the timer count down as soon as you disconnect? I disconnected and went for a smoke (4-5 minutes) and care back to 99 seconds... Just didn't seem to make sens
