Some truths about AFK need to be said, IMHO. A lot AFKer's are actually decent players. The thing is a lot of them play more dust on average than the rest, and have since closed beta. So it's become more of a schedule, AFK till you cap, then fight. You ever notice how AFKing significantly drops off after the first day or two.. with a few stragglers at the end. With triple experience plus boosters, there was a bigger cap to hit so it went on for slightly longer. The people that AFK tend to play everyday. Hell, I hit my 100 match limit long ago I'd bet.. not counting AFK.
Playing the same build of a beta for so long means that after awhile, you aren't really beta testing anymore. You are maintaining and investing in the character(s) you'll have in full release (or when the next build comes and then after). I've personally expressed all the useful information i could as a beta tester and put my thoughts constructively into the forums, as have many many others. There's been nothing more to document for quite awhile.
I'd imagine that after uprising AFK will go extinct, and it will just end up being a fond memory that us beta testers got to take advantage of. Much like all the other "gifts" CCP has bestowed upon us throughout this journey. In ten years, us beta testers will be the old guard of the dust mercs, and we'll be adequately skilled, buffed, and bad ass enough to exemplify it :D
After all, it's not as if we'll grow old and die. |

these people are ridiculing you and ur game by making the claim that its more fun to AFK than to actually play.
i'm not, honestly I rarely afk, but the only reason I do is because they have never said a single thing about it.
if they took a stance I promise you I'd never do it again, can't speak for the others, but if ccp doesn't seem to care why should I. |

Alright here goes... I dont afk farm and to me it-¦s not even on the menu and i don-¦t care if a few peeps on my team does it but however...
Coming here on forum, making a thread to create full squads of afkers is just too much.. it-¦s really gamebreaking for those of us who actually plays the game..so
I beg of you afkers out there, if you enter a match and you see 3+ peeps already afk farm... can-¦t you just leave the match and queue for another one?
I can-¦t tell you how to play the game but i can ask you too at least have decency to not ruin others gametime
I would appreciate it

Stop looking at every difference between your two approaches to the frustration of a long hard beta as insurmountable. They're not. Focus instead on those things we all have in common. Sentient, and every player who has ever afk'd a match in Dust, loves this game so much that they'd rather electronically loiter in an MCC than play Skyrim, Defiance, hopscotch or baseball. Remember that! These players believe that what they gain now by afk'ing will be worth it to them later when the game is updated Everyone should try to stop hating and blaming and flaming and try to understand what the other person is doing. And why.

Ric Barlom wrote:You know guys, I was told by the dudes that there's a strange phenomenon going on here in the forums and one of them suggested that I take a look and see what I can do about it. What I'm of course talking about here is the age old "lazy piece of **** syndrome" like I tend to call it. Now the people who know me, also know that I'm dealing with these type of punks on a weekly basis in my personal life so I guess you could say that I've got some experience on the subject. That being said I rarely reply to these type of threads cause you know me: I don't give a ****! This time it's a little bit different though and with this post I'm gonna perform some straight talk, and here's how I'm going to lay it down for you guys. First I'm going through some of the reasons that make this whole thing curious, then I'm gonna delve a little deeper and give these guys some life advices. And guys remember that this is not a naming and shaming type of thing and I don't try to be too hard on you guys.
Now, guys, we've seen a lot of lazy fucks here on Dust 514 so that's nothing new but there's a key difference here with this new breed of lazy fucks. Let me give you an example: You guys remember when Mr. Spero from Imperfects was caught with his virtual pants down AFK farming in that MCC, guys? Well like any other aspiring CPM member he tried to weasel out of it, no big deal guys. That's a normal reaction guys. Not blaming Spero or anything. There's a chance the dude has turned over a new leaf and stuff like that. The point here is that the guy was ashamed of what he had done and he did what he had to do!
So that brings me to the current situation and the new breed of AFK farmers: The EoN alliance. Now let me be perfectly fair here and note that they probably have a small percentage of members who are stand up guys, so I do apologise to those few good dudes. As I said this is not a naming and shaming type of statement, boys and girls. Anyways it ends up that the EoN dudes have come up with this gimmick where they are proud of being lazy fucks! Man, would I love to hear the background of these guys! Everyone who knows me, know that I've been born and raised in a culture that values hard work, honesty and earning your own keep. Well EoN let me send a message to you guys right now: You haven't earned **** in my books!
So I tell you what, guys. You go read some Hemingway, then you take your pencil necks out of your apartment, come over and mow my lawn. I'll give you guys a couple of bucks so you can go buy yourself a few ice cream sandwiches. And that's everything I have to say about this subject, boys and girls.
LOL someone is SERIOUSLY butthurt. Let me address this long teary post even tho i really dont have too cuz tbqh its quite lulzy
1. Very few of us AFK farm, actually alot just play Ambush. SyNergy mainly plays Skirmish and i can count on 1 hand all who are pissed bored with DUST's terrible red and blue dots so they AFK. So calling out an entire alliance cuz of a few....very chilidish and dumb of u.
2. Why are u so uptight about pub games? loosen that thong from ur butt buddy, the games mean nothing atm. If ppl were afking in a cb or sum then yea thats a reason to throw a tantrum but pubs? we talkin bout pubs here......not the meaningful fight but pubs?
3. Quote:Everyone who knows me, know that I've been born and raised in a culture that values hard work, honesty and earning your own keep. Well EoN let me send a message to you guys right now: You haven't earned **** in my books! strange......thats the same culture i come from and pretty sure EoN. is exactly about that valuing hard work. What YOU deem "hard" work and what WE deem hard work is 2 different things tho. We dont consider pubs "hard" work maybe u do and thats totally ok if pubs challenge u no offense but WE deem hard work from a cb side, pubs are just there to get SP.
4. As for ur message in the quote above.......dont think anyone in EoN. cares if we "earned" **** in ur books i dont even know u lol.....all ur doing is ranting. See this is the fundamental difference between me and u, u sending "messages" through forum ranting whereas if i wanted to send a message id do it ingame by stompin on them badly cuz tbh talk is cheap and I'm personally tired of all my years of back and forth useless forum arguments that ended up goin no where. Take my advice, back an forth arguements on the internet no one wins and is rather pointless, something bothering u that much just shake your head and keep doin what u do.
PS: Have a nice day and Arch gl with ur event lol |

Let me tell you something right now, Mavado, before I will systematically dissect your little PR stunt of a message piece by piece, man! First of all I thought I made it clear in my original statement that it's NOT a naming and shaming type of deal. The second thing is that, I did indeed mention the possibility of a small section of stand up dudes inside the ranks of EoN, so don't try to bullshit this community, dude, they know what you're trying to do here.
Now you keep telling me that you have very few AFK farmers. Well let me give you some statistics, cause if you know anything about me, I like to analyse stuff and go a little bit deeper on my thoughts, no matter what the topic is. So here are the numbers:
1. Number of EoN players who have responded in this thread: 7 dudes, one with a female avatar, no big deal, I don't judge.
2. Number of EoN players who responded and actively support AFK farming: 4, and let me put their names up here so you don't think I'm bullshitting you:
Sentient Archon
Takahiro Kashuken
JW v Weingarten
Lunamaria Hawkeye
Now that's 4 out of seven and most of those 4 are indeed encouraging this behaviour and spreading the disease, which by the way includes you my man!
3. Number of EoN players in the thread who are clearly against AFK farming: 0!
Now let me be the first one to tell you, that's a horrible percentage for any corporation and I'm already closing in on your "one hand" number. You must have been born near Chernobyl cause you clearly have more than 5 fingers in one hand! And you're absolutely right: We do indeed define hard work a little bit differently cause the statistics of your alliance are so horrible that it makes Zimbabwe look like the American dream for Christ sake!
And let me tell you something else, it's not the public games what's my problem, bro. It's the fact that your alliance promotes this lazy, free riding, piece of **** attitude that takes away from the joy of the people who are trying out the game and are driven away by the fact that you've got a full squad in MCC doing nothing while being PROUD of it and talking **** about it on the official forums! How's that uptight for you! Jesus Christ! I've got a little bit of a message for your alliance right now and right here on this thread, man, so you guys can do a little soul searching. You go tell everybody in your alliance what you read here, you guys take a real good look into the virtual Dust mirror (and I don't even wanna know what that dude with the female avatar is thinking!), man, and you tell me if this is what you guys are about: Promoting leeching and AFK farming while being proud of it! |

woah woah dude.
This is a game. The fact that you care this much about something that will literally mean NOTHING in a few months is beyond silly.
You should clean your thought process up a bit on this one and really take a hard look at how upset you are getting over something that doesn't affect you in any way at all in a game on the internet.

Ric I would applaud you. very well worded and eloquent post. And I do agree with you, IF we were not on a gaming forum. In the end afk won't save the noobs from getting frustrated with this game. So way, and I mean waaaaay different from any fps game. but they do have choices. and yes even afk is one of them. why? cause it's a game. Should there be moral codes? It should be up to the person. The world is made up of light and darkness. you need both to make things dynamic.
I'll defend some one that's getting picked on. But by no way (and my wife could a test to this) am i a white knight. Too much light hurts my eyes. |

like i said u take this game far too srsly dude fyi to those that know me know i dont like AFKing but i also dont condemn ppl for it because i see both sides the ppl that AFK are the ppl that been here since day 1 sweating breaking their backs supporting this lack-of-content game
the game is BORING atm. PUBS ARE BORING. But seeing as CCP is taking their sweet time to get that SP Pool in place ppl have no choice but to keep loggin in if they want to keep up. PPL TOLD CCP not to put in the afk mechanic yet CCP IGNORED PPL and did it anyway, the players should NOT be punishd for CCP not taking advice and introducing a stupid mechanic ppl warned them against. but nooo CCP added it cuz its the only way some of the god awful bluedots would ever get any decent SP
Now lets move onto the juicy part.

1. Based on what the Info Broker guy posts on his weekly update EoN, despite being half the size of CRONOS. is more active than CRONOS. which means our small grp actively plays the game aka AMBUSH (cuz thats the only place stats register atm) more than your alliance.
2. You are from OTB, plz ask your corpmates/leadership of their results vs us. Not to mention me and one other SyN guy had to ring for you in a corp match against PHI (Pro Hic Immortalis) which u would of lost btw cuz u had no tanks and my tank was taking out their 2 tanks not to mention i was actually leading YOUR team that match. SO im a bit confused how u argue that our stats are terrible when u asked for help from terrible ppl to win. (this was months ago before open beta i believe)
3. Why even take jabs at another group? Out of the blue u start talkin **** cuz of a lolpost by arch? Now plz stop talkin **** cuz ur just ranting now and not making any sense.

in a 7 minute match you would need to score 2100 warpoints to break even with passive sp. given this is about the normal time one sided ambush matches goes for I usually don't see many break 1500 wp mark. btw that equals 42 kills if anyone wanted to know. |

thats because his stats make the mistake of confusing you being AFK in the mcc for actually playing. so no, doesnt count. |

It's the fact that your alliance promotes this lazy, free riding, piece of **** attitude that takes away from the joy of the people who are trying out the game and are driven away by the fact that you've got a full squad in MCC doing nothing while being PROUD of it and talking **** about it on the official forums! How's that uptight for you! Jesus Christ! I've got a little bit of a message for your alliance right now and right here on this thread, man, so you guys can do a little soul searching. You go tell everybody in your alliance what you read here, you guys take a real good look into the virtual Dust mirror (and I don't even wanna know what that dude with the female avatar is thinking!), man, and you tell me if this is what you guys are about: Promoting leeching and AFK farming while being proud of it!
Let me tell you as an individual who uses statistics for academic research your sample size to formulate your conclusion is appaling. Are you by chance a FOX NEWS pollster?
Add to it you don't even account for the penetration at all. You are assuming a 100% penetrance for you to use these numbers to represent their alliance thats just a bad assumption.
Moreover I can tell you Syn and the rest of EON work pretty hard to be competitive and have their skills sharp as they are one of the few corps that will fight us no restrictions and all out on a regular basis.
That any of them AFK so they can go do other things or because pubs don't excite them is an indication of their work ethic is laughable. It not our fault that 99% of the base is so awful that its not worth the time to play them.

Based on what the Info Broker guy posts on his weekly update EoN, despite being half the size of CRONOS. is more active than CRONOS. which means our small grp actively plays the game aka AMBUSH (cuz thats the only place stats register atm) more than your alliance. thats because his stats make the mistake of confusing you being AFK in the mcc for actually playing. so no, doesnt count.
lol good one.
Don't think you read and understand what Mavado said. AMBUSH stats. Don't know what 5-6 guys being AFK has to do with that.
Don't matter how you try and spin it, EoN plays more actively than CRONOS, is the point my CEO was making. Skirmish stats don't register, but even so, I'm almost certain we beat them there too.
I have no idea what point you were trying to make. My CEO, Mavado, is polite and politically correct, but I'm not so kind to people being disrespectful. Your post was BS, and a lame attempt to troll.
Sentient on the other hand is a genius, cuz he just trolled the **** out of all the butthurt people in here.
So if you don't mind, please explain your reply, and to be more specific what does people being AFK in Skirmish have ANYTHING to do with people playing Ambush. |

Very few of us AFK farm, actually alot just play Ambush. SyNergy mainly plays Skirmish and i can count on 1 hand all who are pissed bored with DUST's terrible red and blue dots so they AFK. So calling out an entire alliance cuz of a few....very chilidish and dumb of u. 2. Why are u so uptight about pub games? loosen that thong from ur butt buddy, the games mean nothing atm. If ppl were afking in a cb or sum then yea thats a reason to throw a tantrum but pubs? we talkin bout pubs here......not the meaningful fight but pubs? 3. Quote:Everyone who knows me, know that I've been born and raised in a culture that values hard work, honesty and earning your own keep. Well EoN let me send a message to you guys right now: You haven't earned **** in my books! strange......thats the same culture i come from and pretty sure EoN. is exactly about that valuing hard work. What YOU deem "hard" work and what WE deem hard work is 2 different things tho. We dont consider pubs "hard" work maybe u do and thats totally ok if pubs challenge u no offense but WE deem hard work from a cb side, pubs are just there to get SP. 4. As for ur message in the quote above.......dont think anyone in EoN. cares if we "earned" **** in ur books i dont even know u lol.....all ur doing is ranting. See this is the fundamental difference between me and u, u sending "messages" through forum ranting whereas if i wanted to send a message id do it ingame by stompin on them badly cuz tbh talk is cheap and I'm personally tired of all my years of back and forth useless forum arguments that ended up goin no where. Take my advice, back an forth arguements on the internet no one wins and is rather pointless, something bothering u that much just shake your head and keep doin what u do.

You know guys, I was inspecting this thread objectively, and I am objective about 85% of the time, and I decided to do a little follow up post, boys and girls. You see, ever since I broke the story on the wide spread AFK farming issue that runs wild inside EoN, I received a little bit of a backlash from the community. But if there's two things in this world that are true, they are the facts that numbers don't lie and that you guys know me and you know that I just don't give a ****!
Now somebody told me that there's an issue with my numbers, guys. They say I didn't talk about penetration... Let me tell you something right now, guys. The only penetration I do is in my bedroom (I'm oldschool that way) and there are under aged kids here in the forums for Christ! The fact of the matter is we have 4 out of seven EoN guys AFK farming as we speak, and I don't give a flying **** what that german sounding dude is trying to say to weasel out of this whole thing!
Now as far as Mr. CEO goes. Well aren't you such a big man, a ******* hero! Let me tell you, man, you helped OTB in a match. I appreciate that, no big deal. That's all well and good. What really pisses me off though, bro, is that you come here on the forums running your mouth about it! For a man of ANY culture that's an absolute no, no! If you wanna help someone, go ahead. But don't come up here later like a pompous piece of **** talking **** about what a big man you are! Jesus Christ! I make a promise to you right now: If I ever see you on fire, I WILL **** on you and you can guarantee I won't talk **** about it. It's one hell of a shower too.
Now let me make another thing clear, and I speak to the whole EoN alliance. I didn't come here to start a confrontation, unlike some of your forum warriors. I was merely giving my take on the situation while trying to inject some good values on this whole issue: hard work, honesty and loyalty. Now I'm not gonna be looking for confrontation with you guys, but let me tell you, if your forum warriors want a confrontation... You've got another thing coming! Courtesy of Ric Barlom! Peace out! |
