Guild Wars 2

I understand that with the new leagues in WvW its brought more people to WvW, and with that an increased Q times ( even bar the bugged ones )

Last night when I was caught in a Q for about 45 mins, not a big deal as I just played the game, but when the Q finally opened up and I entered EB, there was about 15-20 people standing AFK at the spawn point, I figured I would wait there for a few mins to check it out, and alas none of them moving, when I WP’d back about 10 mins later they where still standing there,

Its not exactly a reportable issue, but its something that needs look into, espically if this is how WvW is going to progress.

It does kick afkers, but as with anything, there is a loophole/workaround. You can set macros to click skills every couple of minutes or whatever and then the system doesn’t know whether you are afk or not.

The AFK time-out is quicker than PVE, while you are inside WvW. I could have sworn it’s roughly 15minutes. Where-as PVE, you can be AFK a very long before getting bounced.

Edit:

And this.. if you see someone AFK for a very long time in WvW it could very well be fishy. Reporting a player who hasn’t moved in WvW for a long time could be warranted.
