I will agree that the rewards for time are a bit high... But there's honestly nothing CCP can do to stop people from idling except make the game more rewarding and interesting to actually play it.

If they introduce an idle-kick... People will just use macros on their controllers, or run around every so often knowing how long they have to move.

If they introduce a vote-kick... People will just abuse the hell out of it to kick people they don't like regardless of if they are AFK or not.

They only thing to really do is lower the rewards based on time. They can't remove them completely, because they were put there in the first place as a 'consolation prize' for the people who get like 100-200WP a match at most on a regular basis. This system allows those people to progress at a good pace still...

(As a side-note... The only people involved in actual abuse of game mechanics here are the people using grenades to try to teamkill.) It's hilarious to dance around those people, and make them kill themselves for no reason btw.

TL;DR: The solution is to reward losers less. OP, you get to be responsible for all of the crying that results from that.

Actually, the solution is to punish those "players" who choose to exploit the game and taint the overall experience. Considering the exposure lately to the subject, I'm expecting that CCP is watching.

Have fun.

lol if you think CCP will do something about those "players" then you women are sadly mistaken

We'll see. You might want to brush up on the bannings in Eve to see what CCP might do. Or, you know, not afk.

XeroTheBigBoss Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz 61	Posted - 2013.03.24 08:57:00 - [63] - Quote The way I see it is CCP supports SP Farmers. They have no plans on fixing this.

CCP are going to ban everyone because they implemented something they knew could be abused!!!

Because it is difficult for many to admit that they are losers who are making this game worse with this behavior. It is bad enough to have individuals doing this all over the place but what about corps like R.I.F.T who do this systematically day after day? For me this is simple. Play the game or find yourself a new one.

Nice list you can add me to it too, not that I've been active in dust for over a month other than to check some ranges and get the frog and calamari suits ofc :)

Actually I started a couple builds ago, firat occasionally on my father's account (he got an invite for having an active eve account) it intrested me enough to get the merc pack and join myself, after a build or two, I realized the utter trash that this game was back then, and quit to go play more exciting games. YES, I quit playing! For the same reasons you afk. That's the difference between me and you. If I don't like it, I don't play! Previous toon was skryd mewgun for anyone that interested..

I need every non AFKer to help. Here is a list of AFKers I saw tonight. Feel free to add to it. If you see these people on your team or against your team. Just leave. They can't afk if they have no match to AFK in. Telcontar Dunedain Jamarc Allen Nova Knife Tiel Syysch - all Imperfect if I remember correctly Kingtc12345- Universal Allies Rasatsu You should add me to that list then. Don't cry though, it's a waste of good suffering.

This is not a rumor mill, this is the start of a hitlist for people who wish to suicide kill AFKers. Or at least it will be once someone decides to take it there. Meta game, not rumor mongering.
Laheon Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 214	Posted - 2013.03.24 12:13:00 - [78] - Quote Not sure I really care who AFKs in the MCC. I play the game to shoot people dead, find bugs, and generally try to help CCP make it a better game. Don't really care about SP farmers. If they want to sit in the MCC, then fine, I'll just work that much harder to make up the difference between the two sides.

Who are you trying to convince? You obviously abusing the game mechanic and you know it. I would love to wake up one morning go to work and just stand in the reception. Why not i get paid per hour after all. If they wanted me to actually work as well the would pay me by the amount or work I do rather than how long I am there.

If you want a corp battle to prove you are better then we might be having a serious conversation. Otherwise, enjoy another pointless thread soon to be locked.

Can you AFK farm without hacking or exploiting? Yes. AFK farming is legal, just like stealing, spying, propaganda, scams, etc. Welcome to new eden. Leave your copy of CoD's honour rules in the bin.

We are aware of the situation but we still have to make an official statement about it. I'm closing the thread in order to avoid a massive flame, but if you want to discuss about it in a civil way, feel free to open a new one. Also, I have nothing against a thread from another perspective like "List of Corps that are against farming" or something like that.
