Is Alterac Valley (AV) AFK-ing a bannable offense?

We have had multiple high ranker in our server pissing others off afking in AV, but basically replied “lol go away afking is not bannable offense”.

Is that true? That’s pretty messed up if it is.

Being AFK is not bannable as I understand it.

Using something to keep you from logging out is though.

If they are there and answering you, they aren’t TECHNICALLY AFK. They just aren’t participating.

If only there were GMs in game… I’m sure they’d be stunned to see the number of losers pulling this crap.

Yes.

LoL! Imagine being banned from playing a game, for failure to play the game :slight_smile:

You really should include the ENTIRE sentence if you’re going to quote someone.

“As I understand it” was pretty clear.

Apparently they’ve changed their stance because I don’t recall them doing this before.

It was. I don’t see how that makes any difference to my quote though…

They kind of had to
Instead of one or two numbskulls, it began to be ten or fifteen or more, which makes the whole BG a big drag for everyone participating.

It is. They’ve banned several already. They do it by waves but they probably ban 10% of the AFK’rs they should.

I usually see 2 or 3 high rankers in my games just sitting on their mount the whole time or following groups then stopping without even trying to fight. Best thing I can say is focus on your fights and ignore them. You can’t correct people who are like that unfortunately.
