CM AFKers

I will NEVER judge a person for trying to watch the cutscenes in CM...

...as long as you don't judge me for spirit bonding crafting jewelry while we're there :)

I forget where. but it was reported somewhere on the forums that the GMs said a player does not have to help in a party or something like that, reporting them does nothing.

My reports have been replied to saying that players refusing to perform their duties/roles is considered harassment to continue to report any such behaviour. They could not tell me the actions taken, but gave a link to their policy.
Pretty standard message, not sure if anything way done. They, at least, implied that reporting does lead to an investigation though.

I hate the ones who sit at the entrance the whole time, then we get to part two of the last boss they decide to join in and say "Oh sorry I needed a band-aid for my paper cut" or something else that's stupid -__-. But now I don't even touch CM it's all WP and AK n_n!

I had a tank in CM who AFK'd at the start. He came back about 20+ minutes in, clicked through the cutscenes and said, "Oh my cat got away so I had to chase him". Then two seconds later he afked saying his cat got away again.

Someone told the AFKer that they were reporting him. The AFKer replied right away(so he was clearly just sitting there...) and said that reporting does nothing because SE doesn't have any rules against it. He said a GM told him that. Then he afked again and never came back. People started to quit shortly after that.

I'd really like to know if AFKing all of a dungeon is against the rules or not. It's important to me now because there's no vote to kick option yet.

Not that I condone anyone going AFK in CM to leach tomestones. But I have got to say it, if the other tank is worth his salt, you can clear the entire thing even with the other tank AFK.

Seems like you guys just annoyed of those parasites, because you have a new tag in this thread: "oh look this thread again".

I refuse to do that as a matter of principle. If no one let the leechers leech they might eventually give up. But seriously, SE needs to either let them be kicked or at least ban the heck put of these folks, because they sure won't care the slightest about not being voted Most Valuable Player.

I agree, but I also think about the other 6 people in the party getting screwed (especially the dps). If the other tank decides they wanna afk, I'm not going to let that stop me or the other 6 people from getting our stones, rather than those other people going back into queue for potential hours.

True, it is a bit of a moral dilemma. I at least offer to leave first and take the 15 min cool down.
