AFK'ing for long periods on live wasn't against the rules. You wouldn't get booted. Sitting at char select for extended periods would typically cause an auto-boot though, at least early on.
Killing while afk has always been against the rules on live. It still is. It's why those people who would go out of their way to train people afk-merc'ing never get in trouble. It's like a drug dealer reporting a robbery.
Does it happen on live? Yes, but because there are simply no GM's to investigate and deal with these issues.
