Suggestion: Re-code events to boot afk players

Post by Dagon »

The CTF just now was total bullshit.

3 chars on brown team were all afk (hello, Nipples, and Lady Jada) were all AFK so the other team could just rez kill and get points.

Recode the events to 1) auto ban inactive players, 2) auto boot inactive players, 3) auto re-assign teams during event based on those ejections to even the teams. ...

Of course this would just lead to them running a macro to auto cast a spell or something, but if people are going to cheat to farm silver then something more significant needs to be done in order to resolve this situation.

Maybe even easier to do, only allow 1 character per IP to go to an event area and sign up.. only a small portion of actual legitimate multiple-person households would ever be affected by this.. and then those people would just have to play rock paper scissors to see who gets to play the event that time. it would go a long way towards making events more fair from cheaters.

Maybe ONLY have events when a GM can be there watching, live, to do something about these people.

You want an awful lot from the staff team.

So you don't want any events anymore huh?

It's been made clear in the past there simply isn't enough available staff. This is why we have auto events to begin with.

Kthx.
