Honestly my ego isn't so big that I would get 'upset' because I am 'carrying' someone. It's petty. I'm not there to teach anyone a lesson. I'm not there to place blame and call out people. My "carry" results in one extra push of '3' and two extra pushes of '1'.

I don't play the blame game in life, unless the blame is needed, e.g., someone afk-ing in a premade ultimate raid group.

If someone wants to afk in Prae, it's literally not worth my time or emotion to care. I ain't no Elon Musk where I make eleventy-million dollars an hour. One minute of my time, especially when I'm playing a video game, isn't worth a damn thing.

'But, but, Billy, someone needs to teach them a lesson!"

Yeah, so you either speak to the person, or initiate a kick. Coming here to soapbox over random crap that shouldn't even upset you is very petty. If something like this sets you off, how are you going to cope with the real world, when you have to go out and get a job, and immediately realize that some people do more work, and some people do less work - for the same pay? Whoa... that's gonna set you off something spectacular if you can't even carry someone in Prae and ignore it.
It's not "petty" or egotistical; it's not putting up with someone unwilling to push a few buttons. Prae can be cleared while half asleep and drunk for crying out loud, so there's really no excuse to afk. Period. Don't wanna push 1-3 buttons? You don't get the rewards.
