I just don't see the need for all the hostility in this thread; The plead was quite logical and doesn't hurt anyone.

Australian here. Not enjoying matches where only 2 players from each team leave the MCC. Not enjoying it at all.

In the end though, if you want to AFK I can't stop you, but could you at least do it somewhere that doesn't mess with everyone else's game? It would go a long way towards making things more fun for everyone. You guys can all farm your SP without having to reenter as many matches, and we get to play the game without people making the teams uneven every round.

All CEO's, Directors, and Officers send out Mass mails telling everyone that wants to AFK farm to do it on the ASIA Battleserver.

America, Europe, and Oceania seem to be the most active and CCP isnt going to hand out an AFK server or stop players from doing it.

SO tell everyone that wants to AFK farm to go into there system options scroll over to Battleserver and AFK in the asia servers so people can actually have matches on the other servers.

Its up to the community at this point to step up and take action, No1 is going to do it for us obviously, so lets get it done!!!


P.S. This is not a debate, we've had too many of those and gotten nowere so lets just get it done.

lol OP what a ****** ass idea, you're suggesting to just divert into other servers, what a Genius... howbout we Oceania, Europe, and Asia just AFK in your server.. I bet we'll never hear the end of the whining and crying about AFK, posting videos and screenshots..

Definition of a scumbag here, folks. "Don't AFK on games I play, go do it somewhere else and ruin other people's experience. As long as it's not mine and doesn't affect me, it's all fine!"

The reality is that there are very few players on the Asia and Oceania servers. I've queued for both, and it's not uncommon to be in a match thats 4 vs 4 anyway. If these guys are going to AFK, the least we can do is find a way for them to minimize the harm. Like it or not, this is a good way to do exactly that.

To be fair, after downtime we usually switch to other servers for better fights with fewer afkers.

It's a bit chicken and egg, really.

I just don't see the need for all the hostility in this thread; The plead was quite logical and doesn't hurt anyone.

If you want to AFK cause you don't want to play this POS game (in it's current form), then all you have to do is just jump into another server with tons of other people doing the same thing.

Its not like they are telling you not to AFK anymore; just to take it somewhere else so that everyone can be simultaneously fulfilled.
