So we are allowed to name players now? Or did the moderation stop.
Considering Leaver botter on EU got purged even after the name of the account in question was removed, except any replay files
You see, I play 4 vs 4 RT and there is almost always that one guy who AFKs for 5 minutes to deny us resources and then leaves, by using a bot 24/7 non-stop
I reported multiple times in-game for cheating/botting/hacking, but nothing happened. So you don’t look at it and just use it for toilet paper since it seems to be on shortage
So I have simple feedback for you
Fi…
2 - AFKing
This method is more original : it also consists in not playing a game, but by not doing any input during a certain time instead of leaving it right away. This is commonly referred to as being AFK « away from keyboard ».
The aim is in fact to make sure not only that your partners are being left alone, but also that your resources won’t be shared with them, contrary to what would happen if you had freelost. In other words, it is a way to increase your chances of lowering your MMR with each game queued.
However, contrary to the freeloses, this also affects all the partners of the team ; who would not only have to deal with outnumbering opponents, but also quite likely see their own random team MMR forcefully lowered.
Since the main drawback is the time consumption, the most desperate smurfs do use bots set to queue the games in their stead, and to then automatically leave at a set timer. They can be recognized as the games are almost always left at the same duration (at ± 5 minerals mined each), and as abnormally large quantities of games are played in a row (often ≥ 24H long sessions ). This is a form of hack referred to as botting , more about it here . It is of course strictly forbidden by the code of conduct.
