Sorry, but trying to "force" people out of AFK won't work, especially when you now get a whopping 2 SP per WP instead of 1. Try making the game more fun to play so we won't want to AFK instead of trying to brute force us out of the MCC.
Who ever said that the purpose of this event was to "force people out of the MCC" or to "punish" anybody? 
Maybe CCP just thought it would be nice to give us a double XP event but, in light of how many people simply AFKed the last time, arranged this event so that AFKing would be less effective? |

Maybe I'm misunderstanding how it works then, because I was under the impression that PASSIVE SP gain (from sitting in the MCC, for example) wasn't doubled and that only ACTIVE SP gain was?
Regardless, my comment was more for a clarification of the PURPOSE of the event (that it was somehow meant as a means to prevent AFKing), rather than how it works.
All I meant was that, just because they have set it up in a way that they hope to discourage AFKing during the event, doesn't necessarily mean that discouraging AFKing is the REASON for the event. |

I'm still not sure I understand what all the complaining is about. Double SP event or not, people are already AFKing anyway, and will continue to do so until CCP implements a way to prevent it.
So, what are we left with?
If you play normally, you'll get a little extra SP, and an increased SP cap for the week. Great.
If you want to run an Active Booster, you'll get a little more SP. Even better.
If you're an AFKer, you can stand around even longer doing nothing until you finally reach the increased cap. Not really my cup of tea but, good for you, I guess.
Win-win-win for everybody, more or less.
Or would you prefer that CCP just didn't have the event at all?

If afk was banned the population would NEVER hit 3k is that what you really want? 2500 dedicated kb/m evetards to play a lobby shooter with?
Kill afkers and you will kill dust
Did you just copy/paste this post from another thread, or did you copy/paste it there from here?
Either way, I'll just copy/paste my response:
AFKing =/= playing
They're not keeping the game alive, they're making it worse. |
