Dickinson.7368 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 You expect him to get banned for what exactly? As long as he's not flaming he dont brake any rules by afking. Ofc anyone is free to prove me wrong by pointing me to the rule that states that afking is forbidden. People need to understand that GW2 is not LoL and threatening people with reports will not get you a free carry neither you can force the enemy to get farmed for your entertainment. Those who don't want afkers they can play modes that allow 5 man premades. As for paying customers vs freeloaders anyone who think that not just a-net but any company will threat them same, is delusional to say the least. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure The Heartless.3261 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) Imagine jumping into a ranked mode where your rank depends on four other people trying, losing because one person on your team didn't try, then getting upset at your opponent as well because someone there queued with a buddy to reduce the possibility that someone had a glass ego on their team by 20%. This is a mess lmao. If they make it full premade vs premade people won't play it because that requires social skills and the disparity between teams is very clear, but if you put them together randomly soloq vs soloq you have to pray to RNG gods that your teammates are well adjusted, which is even worse. 2 hours ago, Dickinson.7368 said: You expect him to get banned for what exactly?

Jokes on you, i don't ping/communicate at all with my "team". I join every match with the mentality that i'm 1v5 and try to use the rest as meatshields/distraction. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote While participating in Player-vs-Player (PvP) gameplay in the Services, you will not participate in any form of match manipulation. Match manipulation is defined as any action taken to fix or manipulate the outcome of a match or alter or manipulate the rankings or ratings of the ladder. This also includes disrupting other users’ experiences in the Services by not actively participating in good faith (e.g., “griefing” or “leeching”). Tho according to their own ToS premades/boosters are breaking the ToS as well. They manipulate the ranking by boosting people to ratings they don't belong to, and anyone who's play solo only know what an amazing experience it is to play PuG vs 2 premades especially at higher ranks But even if they followed their rules a la carte, i highly doubt that they would touch anyone who gave up or afk mid-game. Hell, I doubt that they would even ban anyone who joins and afk to farm boxes, given that they didn't touch win-traders who are at it for years now. Even assuming, arguendo, that they ban an EU consumer (I am unfamiliar with US consumer rights and laws, hence why I use the EU as an example) for "not actively participating in good faith," it can end up being an absolute legal nightmare for them due to EU laws being pro-consumer & requiring extreme transparency. As stated in the user agreement, if you are a resident of an EU Member State, nothing in this Section 1.7.3 shall keep you from exercising your statutory rights. We may be obliged to accept appeals or to explain our decisions under applicable local law. If i had to guess that's one of the reasons that they only bother banning for botting, flaming, racism, etc, its so much easier to prove than X is afking on purpose vs. X is afking cause of X irl reason. Anyway, apologies for the wall of text. I obviously not support afking for farming chests or elo manipulation in any way, but during the last few months, I have noticed a massive increase of cases where people who don't carry their own weight try to force others to carry them by threatening them with reports. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whooot.5784 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 About this dh, I think you just need to "try-"me"-one-more-time"... People knows, but you know "who" is untouchable... he just does that everytimes, without any consequences at all. This dude is a degenerated monkey.
