I find that hard to believe. I've seen some pfbhz in pubs where I just figured they knew someone because they were pretty average. Plus being over the corp KDR probably means you are better than average, or at least not near the bottom in terms of skill. |

Better than me means that you can be behind the wheel in Borderlands 2 for a whole minute without dying (my current record is less than 30 seconds). My skill at driving in videogames is similar to my skill at cooking. And I make this happen. |

Those are very impressive kill counts and require teamwork (namely bad blueberries) to get. Calamity Jane had an insane 76-8 shotgunning run from what I hear too.
My highest atm is 90-0 sniping, with over a dozen 80+ games now. Still those assault scores put it to shame. |

The behavior definitely taints the game as a whole, but know they won't last long. Last night I AFK farmed the MCC becuase my girlfriend surprized me by taking her top off. But not only did I get laid, I also got a ton of isk and sp. Ca Ching

You guys probably trump the imperfect hate i get. Guess I've just run into all the forum warriors and trolls, shame they are the representation I've got of your whole corporation. I've definitely called you a noob before, but it doesn't mean I look down on you :) I don't know about the forum warrior part, but the impression that we are all trolls is pretty accurate. Faaabulous trolls. Seeing Vanda express his hatred for our corp name alone makes me feel all giddy inside.
But on the topic of AFKing, I don't enjoy redlining for 20 minutes. I can AFK farm my cap while doing something else, and then play Ambush if I want to get some DUST in. If my squad likes to play Skirmish instead, then I just fly a dropship around for 20 minutes because it takes like 15 skirmishes to get a match that will be a good fight. At least when the enemy team can't put up a fight in Ambush, it just means the game ends quicker. In Skirmish, you're forced to sit through a boring 20 minute redline for 1000-3000 more skillpoints than you would have gotten if you were just AFK instead. Pubmatches just mean so little to me, and I assume every other AFK farmer. That being said, I don't like genuinely ruining someone's gaming experience, so I'll try to stop AFK farming.
I think there are a couple of things that could improve the situation overall and lead to less AFK farming though, like better matchmaking for more interesting battles, higher reward for performing well while not leaving behind those who don't do so hot, and of course more content. One of the biggest arguments for AFK farming is people are -bored- with the game, but need SP. I hope you can understand the need SP part(maxing builds, being ready for PC, etc), like I try to understand the need to go so hard on pubmatches. I don't think we need a solution to AFK farming, but a solution to why people AFK farm. |

I AFK farm because I don't care either way about pubmatches and I can go play another more enjoyable game while getting SP, but I think the amount of hate it's getting should at least be acknowledged. The threads are started by a very vocal and whiny few, but there's always some random guy who pops in who also hates AFK farmers |

The tears, so salty, I almost cant drink them all, gonna have to save a few bottles for the MCC
Lol I'm sorry your worked up that your internet game is not giving you the pat on the head you want it to. The best part of all this is that there is nothing you can do to stop from losing your match. I could stop you from losing that match, I could extend my skill and shield you from the harsh harsh world, but I am a mercenary, so whats in it for me?
Tell you what, You pay me ISK and I will get off my Heavy suits well padded rear and I will carry you to the enemies red line.
Make it worth old 2-tons while.
CCP does not make it worth my while to help you, So its better to watch you scream and choke on your blood from high above you.
I am a cold blooded killer with ISK in my veins. Inject me with some ISK and I will pump that blood for you.
Send me a message and offer me something I want, Some sort of payment for my services for wining the match for you and I will do it.
I am a mercenary, of course I am selfish and vain.

Old 2-tons fought more wars then days you have been alive.
I stopped caring about the other clones after I spent what amounts to months on the ground screaming for a revive.
Seen whole squads on my team go 0/40 while I put up a solid 40/1, You can crush so many dropsuit helmets under your boots before you wonder if it was all worth it.
Can only climb so many mountains of dead blueberries outside of a CRU you have left unhacked the whole game and they come tumbling out like a menstrual cycle, right on time all the time and as red as it gets.
My minigun only gets hot for real action now. Rather just oil it in the MCC and wait for a real fight to come along.
Maybe while I'm off the battlefield you can learn how to shoot.
My shoulders are broad, but they dont work for free, not anymore. |

I've played a lot of games but have never encountered this level of crap gaming. Last night I ran into a couple matches where it was my four man squad and a couple smurfs against a team of 16. 6 on 16 is not really a fair fight. When this game dies out because those who actually want to play stop playing because of those who AFK, I hope those AFKers appreciate what they've done to kill the community. No wonder so many are turning to Defiance.

Lets say you enter a match and your team is losing badly , dominated , all the ammount of AURUM wont win the battle.
What do you do?
Rush in a hopeless fight only to lose ISK and maybe get a kill or 2?
Quit?
No , you stay at least you get some points.
If you wouldn get points , the losing team would most likely quit the match and the winning team would get less points anyway and match would end prematurely because opponents left and you wasted your time for NOTHING.
There are some reasons why some matches are bound to be lost from the start:
1. Too many snipers in your team , you need ATTACKING people
2. There is this map (dont know the name) with 3 objectives and one team is closer to all 3 objectives , by the time the other team gets to objective B the other team has objective A and C and they on the way to objective B , hard to push them back when they so close to objectives.
3.Broken matchmaking , setting n00bs against "prostitutes" makes you stay in MCC
Fix this and you will make most people to play the game instead of drinking coffee in the MCC |

This entire discussion is funny, and sadly most of the people QQ about AFKers are players that just arent that good apparently.
Lets face it, 95% of ALL matches are decided by 4-6 players on each side, while the rest typically do not contribute.
Sure its a cheap way to get SP, sure its not ethically right to do, but 3 out of 16 players not playing doesnt really hurt your team, if anything, it helps the team cause thats 3 less ppl running out and dying.
And if it REALLY bothers you... just play ambush. Of course then you HAVE to rely on your own skills otherwise you WILL get steamrolled
I have personally AFK'ed twice, due to crying baby etc, but on both occassions still made it back in time to play some of the match.
I have learned that in pubs, you simply CANNOT rely on others, aside from your squad. Although the overall skill level and competitiveness of players in general has increased, on average is still substandard...how often do you play a match, ambush OR skirmish... that is close? |

i'm the least casual gamer on the ps3.
you... are a casual noob.
and you are scared of V2K because you know damn well most of you deserve to be booted from about 2 outta ever 3 of your "matches".
if the matches don't matter, the you won't mind getting kicked out so we can get some real players in here?
but only a casual would think it the other way: the matches don't matter, so the casual has the right to hide like a vage while the real players put in the work.

You are a casual babby
You want a ****** mechanic in the most pointless matches of all: high sec pubbie matches
Proper players who want to get on will be in FW and PC when it gets here, pubbie matches mean **** except SP and a little bit of ISK
Im still in my NPC corp because i dont need a corp yet, im in no rush, being in a corp doesnt mean you turn from casual to pro i mean look at you, casual is stamped on your forehead |

I think that this is a completely different set of circumstances. There is a huge gulf between stepping away from a single match because real life demands attention and making AFK farming one's primary "play" style.
The former is totally reasonable and understandable, if at times frustrating.
The later is unethical and exploitative. It also seems to engender abusive self-aggrandizement in the perpetrators. |
