I hate going near or around start. It's filled with afkers who are making the game slow.
I suggest a partial disconnection from era if a person goes afk. The player is disconnected from the server and a menu replaces era on screen.
The menu will have one button. It will say "Connect to Era," and maybe "you have not moved for x minutes on the server. I know the actual app kicks you off era if you afk for too long. However, when you lock your device, afk no longer matters. Ghost Mode would take those device lockers and force them to idle off connection.
An added bonus to ghost mode could be that you can still use pms, gms, and the main menu.
