Stop new AFK update in Sky cotl

The Issue

That Game Company is trying to solve the issue of the new update Bloom, where there's a sapling in Home, and people are going AFK to collect free candles dropping. Their solution? They put out a new beta update stating that if you don't engage in gameplay while you and your friends are doing candle runs (for 2 minutes) you will be unable to collect candles. 

Most players are students who need to study and do schoolwork who don't always have the time to collect candles on their own. Candle runs can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours, and not everyone has the time for this. Especially considering most spirits have ridiculous Candle prices. How will some earn enough candles to get rewards in the game? 

Some others have suggested solving the solution by: Not letting the tree drop "orbs" of light that make candles, taking away the tree completely, or adding a 10-15 minute timer instead of 2. 

Here are some complaints from some showing why they dislike this new update: 

"This is a terrible idea lol, like everyone said, what if im studying? we can't be bothered to touch the screen every two minutes just so we won't be flagged as afk. That will also distract us from focusing from what we are studying. Why didn't they just put a limit to how much u can get everyday like what they did (i think?) In the chinese new year event with the dragon??" -Potato Kun Zae on youtube 

"If they are able to detect players are AFK they could just add a feature so AFK players would appear as ghosts to other players, so you won't be able to light them up, therefore would not attempt to socialize with them under the sakura tree. 2 minutes are way too harsh anyway, many other games have 5 or even 15 minutes of "break-time" before you're considered AFK." -sparrow on youtube

"Okay, how tf do they want us to socialize if we can’t even farm with our friends in peace anymore? Like, just make the amount of light collectable from the tree limited. Is it that hard?" - bruh on youtube
