Guild Wars 2

Now with Tequatl Rising event they had become a real nuisance. And some obviously think its funny as I have seen a person man a turret and then go AFK putting it out of commission. I could go on about it but I think everyone knows what is the problem.

So my solution is simple during world events players who are inactive in the map the event is taking place should be kicked out to the character selection screen after being inactive for 1 min.

Other people are complaining that they are kicked just cause of a little networklag.
I know for sure that 99% off the afk’ers do not do this on purpose, and the hate against them is actually so bad, some people deserve to be reported and suspended.

Besides that, at Tequatl, when we are 8 minutes in and my map didn’t get more then 5% off, then I give up as well and go AFK.

I understand your issue and I understand it is annoying, but kicking people out of a map, where it often takes a constant pressence to stay in the map is ridiculous.

The main issue in my opinion is that they are over promoting Tequatl.

I link the revamp and I like the challenge, but it is too much of a big deal at the moment. They should have a more decent living story with also good rewards running at the same time. They should also not have an achievement where you are required to participate to get your rewards. This way the people who wants to kill Tequatl for the challenge would be able to team up and the people who are only interested in achievementpoints or sensational (living) story’s could go elsewhere.

I think you didn’t understand me I’m not hating anyone here. And I do know that many of them don’t do this on purpose. But even so they annoy a lot of people because during such a difficult event even a person who doesn’t know what to do would be of more use than a person who is AFK and blocking them from entering the map. Plus if you are AFK anyway will you mind if the game logs you out? No I don’t think so.
