Java Bedrock FFA AFK Timer

AFK Timer in FFA

* [so annoying for the players with ranks that congregate at top spawns points]

1. and we usually stay still when we aren't fighting. so It has been increasingly annoying to keep moving every two seconds.
2. I've asked dozens of other FFA players and they also disagree with the AFK timer in FFA.
3. It's just a habit because we spend all this time jamming buttons and stuff that we can't have a break.
4. It's also annoying if you're recording a game.
5. when u go get a cup of water u come back and ur in the lo0bby.
   
   
   It's quite annoying, I must add.
   
   
   Please Change it up.

The current AFK timer doesn't fit the nature of Free-For-All gameplay. Standing still briefly is common—whether you're watching an area, waiting for a fight, swapping gear, or simply not mid-combat. Forcing players to move constantly disrupts the flow, especially for ranked players holding strategic spawn points.

Many players are recording, streaming, or even in voice calls. Being kicked to the lobby just for pausing a few seconds—even when you're actively present—is frustrating and unnecessary.

Simple ask: Either remove the AFK timer in FFA or increase the threshold to at least 4-5 minutes. The current setup hurts gameplay more than it helps.

My only argument against this was saving resources / space in FFA lobbies so that players who are NOT afk can enjoy full lobbies as well. But the lobbies reset so frequently that I don’t think it’s much of an issue. I know a lot of people in the FFA community love to just chill sometimes and talk with friends, and the removal of the AFK timer would make that kind of play style more comfortable.

How long do players have to stay still before they get kicked back to lobby? If the time is really that short then maybe extending it few minutes would work.

I'm pretty sure It's a minute to two minutes. I'd just like to get it removed.
