When I play I don't have the ability to just sit at the computer and fly all the time. I do a sortie land and then go attend to the kids or the missus and come back for another sortie. I probably only spend about 50% of my logged in time actually playing. If I got booted I doubt that I would log back on, I assume that I'm not the only person in this situation.
except for the stupid 12 hour rule which is more of a problem to some people than ENY
Is it really so much of an issue that, at MOST (with standard installation) seven clicks of the mouse get you logged back in, that you wouldn't bother logging back in and/or quit Aces High if auto logout were implemented? This is assuming that HiTech were to code it to where it would COMPLETELY close out Aces High. I doubt that though, so it would only take four clicks of the mouse to bring you back in (which is from log in screen).
Now on the issue of 12hr time limit, I would agree with you on. 12hr is harsh. 6hr limit would be far better, but I wouldn't revert back to 1hr. 2hr minimal could be okay.

Personally, I don't think it an overly bad idea as it would lessen the load (if only slightly) on the server. 15 minutes of inactivity will auto log you while in tower.
"Well I log in a lot of times just to chat with my squadmates and friends...". Okay, good for you.

You wouldn't be auto logged for AFK since you'd actively be typing and/or using VOX.

"But I go afk while climb out on bombers/etc., for more than 15 mintues...". And?

You are flying, so you would not be considered AFK.
