Prevent Lotro from closing itself?

[luxlunae]

I've had the game log out my afk characters, but never actually close the game.

Really? Mine always closes the game after a while. It seems to take much longer to time out in game than to time out and close the character screen.

I do not want to bot-hop, just hoping for a setting because I"m too impatient to spend a 45 seconds logging in when I'm only playing in 15m bursts.
