    Default AFKers in PvP: What the ****

    i have been in two or three warfronts just now in a row where almost half my team seemed to be afk botting, with just occasional jumping and what not to keep from afking out. something has to be done about this. It breaks pvp because when you go to the middle in bg with 5v10 because half your team is botting out ezmode levels, its a **** fest. /nerdrage

    It's starting to get really bad in the low levels (just moved from the 10-19 which wasn't so bad to 20-29 which is horrible).

    A guy who I was equal level with a day ago is 6 levels above me... from losing warfronts.


    If you're intent on not banning botters/afkers make it official so I can join in.

    The AFKERS in the BG's is getting to the ridiculous point. BAN THOSE ACCOUNTS already. If this crap cake keeps up, I will just have to go back to coke and hookers as my hobby!

    I don't know about the coke and hookers..

    But I suspect you'll see most players join em if they can't beat em.

    exactly, this is one of the primary reasons you have to nip this in the bud. just make it so a wf can vote to kick someone for afking, and if they dont respond they're gone AND they get the quitters debuff

    Any idea what kind of bot their using?

    If enough people do it, Trion will complain. So instead of being part of the problem we'd really be part of the solution? :-p

    They're not even bots, that's why Trion isn't going to do anything to them, just like Blizzard doesn't do anything to them either.

    The tears, they're so delicious.

    Live and let live. besides, no world PvP? have you heard of that thing called PvP servers?
