Yup, same here

Well, not quite, i still have to farm a lot, wich is the point of this thread actually.

Difficult to say because i make the count in a daily, monthly and anual way. Everyday i sell Mithril/wood/silk and leather, with that i can get back 70-80% of the investment. Monthly, i sell all the rest wich are pretty valuable ! especially hardened leather, ectos, Ori, stuff for legendary runes and sigils... etc and from that i can make 1K gold every month. On top of that, i keep all of the exotic chance for the lunar new year bags and letters. This year i would estimate 6k gold if it started today. If i could do that "afk farming but activily" (i tried 2h this afternoon), you could add up 50k karma, and 1.500k volatile magic (and 40 leather bags) per hour, without adding more time to the general farm . And both makes legendaries easier to do ^^ The down side is you get bored and burned by it. So nowadays i only farm when i want something ^^

Thank you all for your responses ! Most of those are in sync and say pretty much the same things. Great ! As long as i answer to gold whispers proving i'm there, i can farm that way. But someone told me tough that they can ban without whispering, without a warning, is it true ? No Elircht, i open 250 blue equipment, and salvage them with the "recycle all" button, sort of.. Sending to collectables, organising the loot etc... repeat But i can do that for hours listening to music and shows. And adding a bit more to that farm with some minion farming would be great ^^

Well, i never had an answer to any ticket i made 😕 That is why i am bringing this subject here. But you are right, i will send one just in case. I would not risk it without a clear answer anyway. Thx for your response !

From the link you sent, i would not consider it as AFK farming then. I read that already tough, but i guess i need someone to tell me i understood right ^^

Hey ! I never dared to try AFK farming other than a few minutes once by curiosity, i really don't want to get banned for that. I spend to much time, effort and money on this game. Altough, i do recycle a lot of equipments and that has been my farming method for years now. Recycling, selling, buying more equipment.. and so on. But i was wondering, would it be considered as "actively playing"(as ToS says) if my minions were killing mobs while i am recycle a bunch of stuff in my inventory ? Recycling is obviously active a 100% of the time. I take 20mins to recycle 32 stacks of 250 blue equiments, 40 mins if i'm lazy, and that's the key ! Be active to earn time. If my toon spent this time killing mobs while i point and click a hundred times in my inventory, for my part i would not consider it "AFK". But, is it ? can Anet check that ? what if i'm in a flock of real afk farmers, to use their spot ? Obviously, i am against botting and modding games in any way that would alter other players experience. That is not the subject.

Yup... same issue here today !
