LordChaos.3047 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Is it just me or does anyone else hate having to queue for like 60 to get into EBG and only find people in there who are afk. so many people using toys to keep themselves in there or doing the bare minimum movement to keep from getting kicked. cant we have a report on somebody being afk and if they dont move within 60 seconds they get kicked or if enough people report as afk they get kicked? its not fair really on those who wanna join to take part to not be able to get in due to lazy people being less useful than a wall. or is it just me being a bit of a tool to find these people annoying?

Shagaliscious.6281 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 People would abuse the system and report players they didn't like to kick them off map.The irony of this (and this is not aimed at you, just a general observation) is that the people I see complaining about afk'ers in map chat, often afk themselves in the same map.

Strider Pj.2193 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Are you running into said queues for all maps?If ‘no’ why not move and help on the non - queued map.If ‘yes’ why not move servers? It would seem if you have said queues on all maps, your server is too stacked. Even the overstacked-almighty-24/7-queues-on-5-maps BG doesn’t have this so..

Ayrilana.1396 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I doubt that the players were AFK as there isn’t really a point to do so. If they’re trying to progress the reward track or collect pips, then they’ll have to do something at most every 10 minutes to reset the timer. If they’re just letting the timer wind down then they could simply go to OS. All of that doesn’t matter if there isn’t an actual queue on the map.

LordChaos.3047 Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 i would switch maps but i got friends on the server that im on. it is an idea though that i will keep in mind. and i dont usually like the other maps. i try and stick to eternal battlegrounds as im more familiar with that for now. thank u for the replies guys. and no i dont afk haha. i have had to run off twice to do something urgent but if i know i have to do something i will leave the wvw so somebody else can have a chance. i would hate to ruin somebody being able to play in all honesty :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocki.4931 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Maybe they're taking a break or the comm tagged down and they're waiting, who knows. I don't like this, because it would mean that you can't afk for a few min.People who want to pip down should go to Obsidian Sanctum though.

geist.4126 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 They should stop giving participation for building siege and repairs and make it decay a lot faster when out of combat. So if you are out of combat for more than five minute get a debuff that stops your participation until you dealt a metric ton of damage to a structure or players.

Shroud.2307 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Everyone's time is equally valuable. Some people have kids, phone calls, visitors, etc. I think the allotted time before automatic kick is fine as it is. Yes there are ways around it, but I don't see people abusing it very often.It sucks if there are a dozen players on the map not doing much of anything while a bunch of others are waiting in Q but, there isn't much that can be done to balance this. We all AFK sometimes for one reason or another. Try to be courteous about it and instead log out if there's a Q and you know you'll be gone a while. And if you're in the Q, just be patient. Your time will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Those queuing doesnt bother me for the mere sake of queueing, the fact that they are standing in spawn kittening up outnumbered for those of us actually playing on the map is far more annoying. Sure everyones time is "equally valuable" but they are passivly lowering the value of our time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonRise.7650 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 EBG is bad yes, especially if you upgrade SM to T2-3, but you also have dozens of roamers there too. At least Deso does, even though I see roamers on borders from the other servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
