I don't hate you Mollerz, i find hate hard to maintain in the best of circumstances

if i seem venomous, it is hyperbole

but you are wrong.

If the SP cap were removed, you would still afk, and still try on any excuse that fits when confronted about it. Point of fact is, afk farming is limited by the SP cap as it stands, the current double cap and what will be an epic AFK farm will testify to this.

Its really great that you can be positive about a game that you are helping to ruin by the way .. if and when DUST does start to realise its potential... just remember, it had little to KITTEN all to do with the contributions of the AFK farmers.

You can't provide weapon and map data from the MCC :P

once again :) no hate, but dude... get over yourself :)

There is no "CCP stock price" CCP is a privately owned company, there is no stock price associated with earnings reports or any such stuff.

Were it just you ;)

If the skill cap was removed I wouldn't AFK simply because I could play like a beast when I wanted, and not according to a schedule with an expiration date. It really is that simple.

I have put about $300 USD into the game. Give or take. So it is not just being positive. I have also financially supported the development of the game as well. I am not ruining the game, my friend. I think, if the game were to be ruined, there's only one place to lay the blame. And it is not the player base.

I play far more games actively than I AFK. I've posted plenty of topics. Some I'd like to think have had a beneficial impact on the development of the game so far. Like I said, you already have these preconceptions you've made up in your mind, actively projected it onto AFKers and are going to continue on that way until it's a moot point. I get that. I can only point out all of that stops at your brain, and I assure you, you aren't putting all the pieces of a bigger picture together. You can do what you will with that information.

Why would I get over myself? I am a knifer scout OF COURSE I love glory. But that being said, again, the feeling that I need to get over myself is solely a projection based on a biased perception that is a foregone conclusion in your thought process. Thus, the irony here, is that you should probably get over yourself (:

lol i have no preconceived notions above generalised character archetypes. I think you are trying to imprint my responses for whatever benefit you might reap from such.

if you are afking now, then you are fine with such behavior, there is no reason to presume your behavior will change with a lifted SP cap.

Its nice that you post on the forums :D

but i'd still suggest that afking is not beneficial to either the game or its community, except as concerns the individual benefits of afking, for everyone around an afk'er it just means that that is one less person participating in a match, reducing team ratio's and in those matches with half a team afking, reducing morale and stealing any chance of a win from the team stuck with the AFKers.

if you think that isnt harming the game, i'd ask you to consider the people around you :P

You would have to ignore the fact that I just don't AFK, but actually play a lot as well. I wouldn't even know the stuff I post if I only AFK'd . so if I AFK 30% of my play time and the rest actively partake in battles, as well as financially contribute, as well as post on the forums, I am harming the community?

pfft. there's no way to come to that conclusion unless your personal feelings got in the way.

so the question is do i represent the behavior of most AFKers? We'd need to ask the crowd...

So how long have you been playing? I've been playing since closed beta. hard mode too.. scout. You might not know this, but we have been playing variations of the same themes down to the exact same matches and maps since then. not much has gone well since then, but here I am, still playing and contributing. so is that, again, harming the community?

I don't prefer to AFK, dude. CCP has developed a game where it has become the most efficient way to play the game. I know you want to put all kinds of emotions of grandeur and honor on the cake, but the cake itself is most efficiently made when you AFK till you cap and then play. mayhap sprinkle some pre-cap games in there with your friends/whatnot. I didn't make the cake sandbox, CCP did.

you should explore, for yourself, the reasons behind why I said that is the most efficient way to play dust. you might come to some jarring conclusions.
