Report afk abuse

Yay! Back to AFK’ing all my honor then

I thought there’s supposed to be a timer before you get removed?

should be but appears if its a group or a premade that reports you its instant

Depends on how many people report. If there’s a small number, you get put on a timer. A larger number (not sure what the numbers are exactly), it’s instant

Edit: so in the event of a pre-made, anyone seeing someone new join, the whole lot of them can instant report and boom, you’re done

100% abuse of the system and needs fixed

not what im doing, but ok. Answer me one thing.

Did this happen once? or is it a frequent thing? 1 out 10? 5 times out of 100. Give us a rough idea of how trivial this whinge is.

Twice in 16 years.

And no way to automate or police it. It’s the people choice. Majority rules. It sucks, but again, it’s better than allowing everyone to AFK

‘Report AFK’ should only kick someone if they’re actually AFK. Anything else should be a normal report.

remove the instant kick Majority should not rule in Bgs since we dont have a vote kick in them

thats what I am saying but you have people like Grizzle who seem to think its okay to be used as a “vote kick”

So again, I just have to move or cast a spell every couple minutes and spend 20 seconds in a 20 minute BG and not be kicked.

That’s the issue. Your “solution” is to allow people to AFK

its not that its ok. Its the best system that works, doesnt always work perfectly but 9/10 times it does. Would you rather they hire 1000 new GM’s just to monitor individual BG’s? How would you make a better system that players can use without an hour long wait?

AFK abuse is supposed to be an actionable offense; tell Blizz to get more Customer Support instead of advocating for a system that allows players to be abused who did nothing wrong.

Twice in 16 years isn’t really abuse…
And if the group only did it a couple time? Not abuse either. I agree it sucks, but again, it’s a stroke of bad luck.

It’s like the vote kick from island expeditions. Sucks…but majority rules. It’s a tool given to the players, run by the players.

Oh don’t give me that tripe. I don’t even do it.

It’s just an old joke that I was referencing. Quit being so serious. lol

Op, there is a timer next to your name in game if you don’t see it ,you are not present.

100% what I thought hence why I filed a gm ticket Hopefully suspensions are issued to the offenders

yeah but for real, its bannable.

Correct me if I’m wrong or it has since changed (indent pvp much and still working on rank ten just for artifact xmogs) but if reported for afk I thought you get a short 1-2 min counter where unless your actually afl you can dispel by doing stuff?

negative if enough report its instant
