couldnt find any suggestion similar to this so here goes:

after months of begging on our knees we finally got the reconnect option and despite its flaws its still great
now you know how, for example, the msn messenger attempts to reconnect every 30 secs after the net connection was lost?
yeah, an auto-reconnect would be nice to have in gw as well
its easy to put in and i dont see any downsides - if someone gets disconnected my bet is they'd try to reconnect anyway, and if not theres always the "cancel" button

got the idea when i started deathleveling for the ldoa title
basically people with crappy conns have no shot at the title unless they sit by the comp all the time
since the time you need to reconnect in is set to 10 mins its not really possible to save the situation while you're at school/work/sleeping - which is what most do while deathleveling
i know many people whine about wasting hours upon hours because after getting those precious charr high enough to get the xp suddenly everything goes to hell

anyway, yeah...

/signed for auto reconnect, but not for the above reason.

that will just make that title an even easier one to achieve, is just being made to sit at your computer to earn a title not easy enough?

Nope. Some people are so lazy they want to turn on their computer and go do something else while earning a title.

Great title, by the way, when you can get it while not playing the game. Hell ...... not even being in the same building as your computer!
