*NEEDED* AFK Report System

*NEEDED* AFK Report System

by Eranorz » Sat Dec 05, 2015 6:06 am

So rage-inducing to actually try to play an AB only to have 10 ppl sit at stables the whole game putting people on follow. They're cancerous to a healthy PUG environment and need to be excised so that only the people playing in BGs are the only people playing.

/SIGN if you agree with this premise and wish to show your support,

Thank you,

remember when queues were Blizzlike and you couldn't get high standings by AFKing? And there weren't 1000 Chinese in every BG? Ya know, you had to join a group and actually play the game if you wanted high ranks? Boy those were the days

Yeah when everyone just dodged out at the slightest sign of competition.
Holy shit it was fantastic, farming empty BGs.

yeah but at least there wasn't a massive difference between how the que system worked between the factions and the amount of possibilities for abuse was lower.

Sure the AFKers are pretty shitty, but usually you'll get some nice games if you pug a bit. It's far better than every pug game getting stomped by a premade.

Queuing as a premade is also more fun since every now and then you face other premades, and never empty games.

I do however, understand the OP. Losing AB is pretty depressing, way more so than losing WSG (even though it is more honor), it's just 30minutes of depressing 2-3, while you wait for the end. This just stimulates AFKing even more.

If you wanted bracket 1 you couldn't dodge, you had to just beat everyone/make them dodge you (removal of multiqueue eliminates this problem anyway)

Also The empty BGs/wintrading didn't exist until queues were changed to Nostlike

Blizzlike queues + no multiqueue = best premade controls bracket 1 and you can't AFK or dodge to r14


I've been singing this same song on the forums for 3 months and nothing has been done so obviously the staff doesn't care. whatever, glad I ranked when it was fun and actually somewhat challenging.
