This person gets it, Everquest gets it. Not that it's up to me, but I think this is the perfect solution. As I said in the original post, "When a player is actually controlling a Necromancer or Ranger, they have plenty of AOE for loot without the minions and pets helping them." I never mentioned changing anything about the way minions or pets work other than tagging for loot. Those AFK'ers aren't loitering around the winterberry nodes to help players, or any other location. They pick those spots because veterans are there in hopes of better loot. The vet that spawns at the log farm in Malchor's drops a minimum fine grade item 100% the time. I know because I have 23 characters parked there and I have been MANUALLY killing that vet for years. Try thanking one of those players for making things easier for you and you will see what a great addition to the community they are when they are silent, or their status is set to offline. My complaint is purely from a business standpoint. I love the game and if one of those slackers trades in gold for only 100 gems I consider this stealing. Especially when Anet had to recently lay off employees.

Everyday the same players are standing around the log farm in Malchor's Leap AFK with their minions and pets farming mobs, just like the same bums you see standing around the convenience store. Now they are strategically placed on the escort trails in Drizzlewood where the mobs spawn, just like the same bums you see everyday at the traffic lights. Are they bots? Probably not, but they are AFK and the only reason they do it is because they get loot from the minions and pets without having to do anything. They don't affect me other than I gotta look at their corpses when Lyssa spawns, just like I gotta look at garbage the real life bums leave laying on the ground at their loitering spots. It's pitiful really, newer players keep trying to resurrect them out of the kindness of their hearts thinking they are helping their fellow player when they are really just helping someone who is probably playing some other game or on a different account. Call me a jerk if you want, but it's an exploit. If I ran a company that relied on gem sales as part of our income, i'd make dang sure players that trade gold for gems weren't stealing real money from us by standing around doing nothing in game. When a player is actually controlling a Necromancer or Ranger, they have plenty of AOE for loot without the minions and pets helping them... So please disable minion/pet tagging for loot in the next patch so we don't have to look at these deadbeats.

Transfer off that EU server, head on over to a NA server and look me up, i'm Central too.

I forgot to mention [NA], and the best family in the game.
