Auto Kicked for Inactivity While Active

Capture the Flag:
The inactivity detector was triggered while I was active

Inactivity Detector:
My monitor had disconnected while I was in a CTF game, I expected it to reconnect quickly but it stayed disconnected. While I tried to reconnect, I was using my controller to move around to avoid getting killed in-game and try to prevent the auto-kicker. A team mate placed blocks around me, confining me to a 1 block space (I could have gotten kicked because my coordinates weren’t changing but I was still moving my camera, switching hotbar spaces, and trying to break anything around me). My headset was still connected so I could hear in-game notifications and could hear the auto kicker warning but by the time the monitor reconnected, I was in a dark space without reference as to where I was or how to get out.
I see why the auto-kicker was triggered and why I couldn’t get it to recognize activity, my point of this bug report is because “inactivity” or “afk” don’t describe my situation but was the reason I was kicked.

Hey there

Thank you for taking the time to reach out. While you may have been switching items in your hot bar, this is not enough to prevent you from being flagged for being AFK.

To avoid this in the future, you should move around more.

Stay safe and well
