AFK Leveling = Banned. New Unspoken rules Via Guide Drommund. Proof inside.

Beating off to your girlfriend's bestfriend's porn video isn't cool. It's not illegal though. Say it's illegal and people won't do it. Just like twoboxing.

Don't just say 'it's not cool'. Then later having a GM telling you. ME HULK ME FROWN YOU BAN!

lol, Well, I have to say my methods are far more devious, especially if someone is AFK camping half a zone away.

I would just go make a PEQ character now - when a dev says devious and you are playing "you can't make me" the end result for you isn't going to be good.

Rogean, Can you please confirm/deny if this is a bannable offense please?

Hahaha are you serious? Did you not see the post about the guy who used to AFK level in ocean of tears and someone came by and dropped off a charmed mob and while he was gone he lost about 25 levels?

Yea, keep it up, that will happen to you, whether its a "banable offense" or not.

I can comment that if I find someone doing it they generally don't live much longer. After having to get your corpse off the bottom of the lava lake in Lavastorm or finding yourself 2 miles in orbit obove EC and falling fast, most folks have received the message. Another personal fave is making the pet kill its owner, or deleveling the pet, or making the pet DT the owner, or drowning, or dumping them next to the Neriak Warrior guild, I could go on.

The code is not in place to sap all the XP from pet owners yet, but if the trend continues you can pretty well bet it won't be long.

Bannable offense? Yes/No?

[Aeolwind]

Have I banned anyone? No.

Would I if they were busted for it more than once? I'd consider it strongly.

Would I if you made a habit of it? Absolutely.

I consider it the lamest way to level in history. Sitting half a zone away sucking up XP from your pet is honestly an exploit in mechanics. XP was never zone wide on live. While it had a large radius, it wasn't quite West Karana sized.

Though I'm sure Rogean can tell you, I'd imagine the person you'd really want clarification from is Nilbog.



But none of that is really important, as afk leveling just makes you look like a tool and results in your only end game guild option with Transcendence.

Their founders started the fad after all.
