    I'm not mad just surprised at the amount of people getting so offended, if you don't like it don't read it and don't reply its just that simple.

    I haven't flamed anyone I haven't mentioned a single person's name in any of my posts, but people are obviously getting buttmad over a thread in a *cough* game. Please stop replying if you have nothing constructive to say, voice your opinions all you want about AFK leechers whether it be for or against but if you're only going to outright flame me a GM is probably already getting ready to delete your post.

    It's not that simple. This would be great if you were just venting. Unfortunately your first sentences says "To the Devs" and since I disagree with you and there's no "Dislike" button, I can only do MY part by vocalizing how I think you're being inconsiderate and nosy when it doesn't impact you or the overall game at all.

    I've listed several ways you could control YOUR situation to minimize the discomfort this causes you. If the devs think everyone feels the way you do and opt to change this in the game mechanics that will inconvenience me and my family and I will be powerless to control it.

    So to the Devs: AFK leveling is being exploited by players having and utilizing multiple dummy accounts. Start charging money and this will sort itself out. You'll either make more money, or people will have less accounts to link their leves with. There's no need to take away a system of play that applies to a select group of individuals who want to get multiple characters level using minimal effort as it pleases them.

    Note: It does make some players cranky when they see it at Broken Water, though. Please be aware of that.

    You have flamed us since we are these "people" you speak of. So i'm going to give it to you straight.

    Stop being so damn nosy and minding others people business as it does not affect you unless you invite the no skilled idiot to a party(which then you can still kick them). You know what SE have for those that afk leech? it's called the "kick" button and it's a very amazing feature. As soon as an afk leech is spotted do not hesitate to use such godly powers against them.

    edit: Once SE start charging for accounts a lot less people will exploit this. However their will be some and the fact still stands it doesn't affect you. The economy won't be overrun like the RMT which is a lot more important than someone AFK and a sucker allowing him/her/it to gain xp.
