Being AFK is equal to a scrubberry. Only less annoying. - Devil

This doesn't addresss what I said in the post. People are saying they are bored. Really, they are being selfish and inconsiderate. I'd take a scrub meat shield any day over statue character taking a dump in real life.

You would take a player who cost you clones over one who does not?

Please stop.

Yes, even if that player is shooting at the MCC with a blaster like a mad man, as long as never gives up, there is at least the illuision of team spirit. or the idea that one day that guy will improve and bring down the MCC the real way.

A scrub can delay and distract and that is more valuable than 0/0 no show. Yeah, effort matters.

There is now no way to judge the initial scoresheet because you never know who will actually play. OK on the flip side. Think what that one squad who is holding up the whole team is thinking when whey lose to nobodys because of horrible blue dots.

You would cry your little eyes out because you would be have more MCC but get cloned.

One of their heads explodes thanks to a friendly sniper, another 2 go down to a Shotgun Scout. We lost one guy who "cost us clones". They lost 3 because he kept their sights off the real threats for just long enough... Who's more valuable? The suicidal decoy, or the guy in the MCC who doesn't even do THAT job right? Even if they really screw you over, I'd rather someone ACTIVELY screwing the team because they're so bad than someone who COULD win single-handed but stands in a corner and does nothing instead because "I'm bored, but I still want to be rewarded without participation".

Oh so we are playing in the perfect world now? How about... All the ****** bluedots derp around in the MCC while people who can actually hold their own play the game as it was intended... not getting killed every 2 minutes. Oh I just risked my life hacking this objective with 5 blueberries surrounding it as I advance to the next one only to have it hacked a minute later. Guess what you still lose.

xaerael Kabiel Immobile Infantry 4	Posted - 2013.03.26 12:24:00 - [45] - Quote Thing is, have these "uuuwhhhaaaaaahhh uuuwhhhaaaaaahhh afking people made me lose the match T_T" ever bothered to scope over the enemy MCC with a sniper rifle? Yup. The enemy side also has AFKers. Don't assume you're such a special snowflake that the AFKers are only on your side. 90% of the skirmishes I play have equal 0/0, 0WPers on each side. Also, before you get supermad at people, the game can and will filter people into the game as late as the MCC exploding. Those people will show up as 0/0 0WP.

J Lav Lost-Legion Orion Empire 41	Posted - 2013.03.26 12:28:00 - [47] - Quote I think we should all just stop playing the game, and sit in the MCC. A whole team sitting in the MCC getting SP and ISK, because at the moment, it's the most efficient way to accumulate those resources.

I don't feel like I need to max my in-game skills and rock proto gear to enjoy the game. I've stated before that I believe AFK farming to be tantamount to macro mining, i.e.- it should be a bannable offense. At the very least, those players who advocate it and openly admit to it should be reset to 0 SP.

Only SP and ISK. What where you saying?

xaerael Kabiel Immobile Infantry 4	Posted - 2013.03.26 12:51:00 - [51] - Quote Do you people read what you write? Macro mining? Hate to break it to you, but that requires more than logging into a game and sipping a cup of tea while browsing the net on your PC. Should semi-AFK mining be banned in EvE then? AFK ratting? AFKing in a lowsec system to scare pubbie miners?
2-Ton Twenty-One Imperfects Negative-Feedback 350	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:02:00 - [52] - Quote 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. Merc for life, Friends for a paycheck.

And I've had matches where 14 out of 16 players had negative K/D in an ambush match. I say ban them from life.
2-Ton Twenty-One Imperfects Negative-Feedback 351	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:08:00 - [54] - Quote 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.
XeroTheBigBoss Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz 62	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:15:00 - [55] - Quote I get irritated sometime but at the same time does it really effect me? If I want to play the game, I will play the game. If some people want to farm let them farm. It's not doing any real harm to you. POSSIBLY it can be hurting the community but CCP will fix this and if they don't than why should YOU worry about it?
semperfi1999 Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 386	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:43:00 - [56] - Quote LOL at people who are mad about this. I have said it before and I will say it again. Go to CCP and tell them to change it to 5 SP per WP and 1 SP per second and AFKers will disappear. If CCP does not want to change it then they obviously want people to have the ability to AFK farm. If thats the case then you cant complain to people who AFK farm.
buddha blezz D3LTA FORC3 Orion Empire 8	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:48:00 - [57] - Quote Go to CCP and ask them if they find it good that people are exploiting the hell out of the game, destroying the games purpose (purpose - people to actually play it) , and spreading controversy into the community by splitting it into pro-boosters and anti- boosters , i for myself wont be spending anymore money AUR just because they allow people cheating in a MMO game
Kleanur Guy SyNergy Gaming 180	Posted - 2013.03.26 13:55:00 - [58] - Quote buddha blezz wrote: no ISK SP gain behind red line is my suggestion Even if ONE person AFK farms, the game will go one way. I'm fairly confident a squad of a GOOD corp will be able to carry a 12v16 match. The game goes in one direction anyways, and that's a redline, this wouldn't help and you would have people in 50% of games getting no SP or ISK.
THE GREY CARDINAL PSU GHOST SYNDICATE 48	Posted - 2013.03.26 14:02:00 - [59] - Quote Those who AFK farm are lame as *****...but so be it. I play to have fun with my corp mates, not because of some sad desire to stay up with everyone in SP that would have me stunt my team. Each to their own though. :D
Knarf Black Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 515	Posted - 2013.03.26 14:03:00 - [60] - Quote "I'm sick of carrying teams of blueberries that have less SP combined than I do individually; the obvious solution to this is for me to accumulate even more SP." Whatever. Bioshock Infinite is out and I no longer care. Heck, having the top guys all hiding in the MCC has made the game way easier for us midrange players. Too bad it just exacerbates the game's many issues that drive new players away. All that ill gotten SP isn't going to be worth much if the game shrivels up and dies.
