    How about people just run dungeons or PotD? Bring food. Use FC actions. Make some friends or find Peter Paladin on your server and ask "Hey man, would you like to help me run [instance]?" The worst he'll say is no. The funniest thing he'll say is "Pay me".

    Seriously, did anyone see that chart going around? PvE content still gives more than PvP. And loot. And gil. And materia. . . Like, no one was forced to PvP, and PvE STILL offers so much more. Where's the downside here?

    I guess if they're actually botting or afk on purpose the downside is they would have to actually do work.

    PotD is no good after 60 and dungeon queues are bad on DPS. and you can't do new dungeons till Lv 61. PvP is by far the best way to level all the 60 jobs to 61.

    Experience isn't the problem. We simply are provided with the tools nor do the GMs seem to enforce actual consequences for things like this. If the devs ever want PvP to be taken seriously, they need to issue penalties for people caught AFKing or purposely throwing matches. Said punishment could range from be locked out of Duty Finder completely for a set amount of time or even go as high as reducing your current EXP to zero (though not reducing your level).

    Nice in theory, but DPS queues average anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. People are leeching PvP because they can get in faster and it gives more than PotD.
