DarkK.7368 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I just stepped into the underwater inquist place in Bloodtide coast and... again. Full of farmers, iddle, spamming automatic aoe attacks, same exact place I found more farmers some months ago. What is nowadays aspect of this topic? Are they legal? Do we have to report them? How? I reported them, but only option that seemed valid was "use of bots", and is not exactly that... there is not "afk farm" option. I did not like not seeing an option. 1 1 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Same as always: if they're genuinely AFK, and especially if they're using software or something to automate playing, they can be banned, but if they respond to checks or otherwise prove they're at least present then it's allowed. There's no way for you to know which it is, so all you can do is report anyone you suspect is AFK farming or botting and let Anet sort them out. I saw someone in that exact spot recently who I assumed was AFK farming (on NA and it was about 4am in America, so only 1 person there) but then he sent me a whisper asking about my ranger's pet, so he was obviously paying enough attention to see me swimming around doing the event. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumpwa.1849 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 You have a moral obligation to grief afk farmers. I like going to Kourna and kiting the champion sand sharks to the farming spot under the tree 3 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never saw botters teleporting and farming keys on DS in the past being banned why we will see AFKs farmers being punished? 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jokke.6239 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) If they are only using 1 account Are not AFK, can respond to GM Then I don't see the problem As far as I understand it's not very good gold per hour anyway Seems far worse though if they are using sofware to play multiple accounts at once Then I'm not a fan Don't really see why this is allowed in the first place Edited May 7 by jokke.6239 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
