AFK Leveling

[Xmbei]

lol really? I don't even know him I have posted many times on this saying that 50% of them are probably gilsellers and will get taken care of. Take your own advice read comments before you insult other people. I know /blist won't stop them visually, so just seeing it ruins your game play and effects your leveling and enjoying the experience? If thats the case go somewhere they are not, as a solution, possibly? This is a system that would effect everyone, not just them, even the must hit/kill 3 mobs and if not you start not getting sp. Sure sounds great for a solution to stop it, but what about those friends that are legitimately leveling and killing things and they want to continue leveling with you while you afk for 30 min for dinner or something and they want to stay toe to toe with you and not leave you behind? Make those friends and player drop what they are doing to wait for their friend to finish eating, or taking care of what is really important in this life.... REAL LIFE ISSUES! Oh wait from your statements I think your life is right there in that chair your sitting in on that keyboard/controller your clicking away on, and being catered to by those around you. Since apparently what others do in a GAME effects you so much that you can't do anything but make a forum topic to stop the gaming of others because they are impeding on your life in the game, when they have no measure of impact on you living your life.

*sorry double post*
On top of everything I have said, I do not agree with afk/following leveling people do in Behest. At that point the Party leader should notice it and kick him from the party. That is the most perfect system developed in the game to fight AFK Leveling, the PT leader just ousts them out of the party because they are not holding up their fairshare in the fight, but if its a group of friends leveling, you are going to punish them, when the PT leader is perfectly fine with it? Goes back to it's a game people and friends will play a game how they want to play, or how the developers want it to play. That is why the developer's gave the leader's the ability to "Oust" people from party's because it is up to them and the people in the party how they want to level. Not someone outside of their party that a) they are not actually effecting gameplay wise. and b) it's their game not your's they do what they want.

alot of us do kick people for it(among other things)

the problem is the worst offenders go out of their way to make the parties so they cant be kicked

[Xmbei]

Then if thats the case you leave the party. and find another? Or if you know if they are popular for it so much, let it be know to the camp when you are there and don't join their partys and tell others not to and make your own for behest, which yes I know is hard, at least their is multiple camps to do behests and they are more often now. As I said if it's the leader afking for behest and its noticed, all up and leave his party and reform and run and complete?

And you wonder why ppl don't stay in your LS....

Yes your blunt and in this case can be rude. These people are not criminals so do not treat them as such. Unless you fully know wjat is going on, who do noy nor should say rude comments.
In ffxi i had 2 family members die suddenly and had to run to the hospital I had no time to tell anyone on ffxi or the group I was with. I pretty much got told put my coat on and headed out the door. I got back after several hours to finbd I was not only kicked from the group, but everyone left me rude comments and saw a few shouts not to group with me.

That crap isn't ok. Nor shpuld be tolerated. And that is what exactally what op wants to do.
Blacklisting players via shouts over the community is wrong. Asuming the worst of everyone is wrong.

I think they have every right to say "they don't like it."

They don't have any right to say people "shouldn't do it."

Akin to many other lifestyle choices that don't affect or influence you in the least, simply mind your own business. Maybe SE also thinks we "shouldn't do it" and maybe they'll change it, but it's on them to tell us or force us not to. Not some other players' false sense of morality.

I highly suggest you read the opening post again and read the addition.
These people are not staing just their dislike, they are wanting to black list said players from the community. Pretty much shunning said players. Letting it be known they afk leech and should be ousted by the community.
I had this happen in ffxi. And do not repeat DO NOT want to see it here.

Sorry but community ousting is wrong and shouldn't be defended.

there is nothing wrong with booting people frmo behest for not being at their comp, period

if you dont have time to play, then dont play

but dont expect to be dragged for free exp

and dont go to a 40 camp at rank 10 and expect to not get booted either


more people want behest leaders like me cuz we enforce stuff instead of letting everyone ruin the experience for everyone else by being lazy or making us lose sp aoeing everything


remember, first and foremost people do behest for SP and everyone must pull their weight

also what happens in your personal life has NOTHING to do with the game, people dying? so what, you can easily say "emergency gotta go" and drop group, but to get mad at people for kicking you when your gone for hours, thats pathetic, they had every right to be mad at you for not giving them a simple 5 second message to say you gotta run

thats called leeching, and there is never an excuse for it

[indira]

one of the reason im waiting for them to finsh the game before i log back in the game has no balence and you OP like a mofo solo so when you group your beyond godly, so people are gonna slack off.

lol they could take out auto follow to prevent this. =p

plenty of tools out there to copy multiple keyboards to one.

Ved, read my hole post before spouting self rightous bull spit. << (8 crazy nights joke)

Sorry but I had no time to tell ppl I g2g I had to jet to the hospital to be with me family. When your in a state of panic or upset, fight or fly kicks in. Sorry but my real life and being with my family is more importent then a party.

And something you missed in my post. I was not only kicked, but INSULTED, in tells and in shouts. The INSULTS were uncalled for is what I'm saying.

Sorry no excyse for insulting anyone over a video game. That is childish and pathetic. And no one has a right to get mad over that. Last thing on my mind was that I was even playing a VIDEO GAME.

Remember this is a VIDEO GAME meant soply for entertainment. This isn't a work place, or jail where if you suddendly dissappear your introuble.

I wasn't mad for the kicking, I was mad at the pathetic insults and shouts I got. Stuff happen and people should respect that, not assume the worst.

the insults may have been uncalled for but remember this

they dont know whats going on in your rl
and they shouldnt have to care, i know i wouldnt


everyone gets mad when people leech, and you, looked like a leech, period

as you state, this is a game, take it like one, you seem to get rather offended and defensive over it being just a game, so please, take your own advice
