Default Prevent AFK Leeching -- GW Prison

make an in-game prison where they have to go and can't leave for a determined amount of time -- then put up walls with nothing but grammer rules and math problems that they have to solve to be granted a chance at leaving

See, here's the thing... we don't pay a continuous fee for this game, so I don't see any reason for not punishing those who are making the game worse for others.

Make it so logging out won't allow them to shave time off their sentence... make it so they would have to sit at their computer and click on a prompt box to prove they're not just afk while doing time.

Or just kick them out of GW, that's a solution too

I was thinking more along the lines of locking them from reentering for ten minutes, uless they do something. Say ues at least one skill to good effect for each minute the match lasts.

To goo d effect means interrupting a spell, or evading an enemy attck, or healing a hurt ally, or doing damage, or whatever else the skill should be used for. Not randomly activating traps and stances.

And achilles, staying AFK through a full Alliance Battle or Fort Aspenwood isn't really playing the game. It's like sitting at a bar is not the same thing as drinking.

A normal person, who doesn't leech, will never trigger this. It needs you to do nothing for a very long time. A leech would either stop working, or have to actually help the team out. At which point I'm starting to care less.

lol i saw the idea and i just wanted to see what it was about lol. All the ideas where people get sent to prison never work it seems, i mean they log out and will either log in a again and go afk, since well they kinda are afk the whole time. Or they will sit their with a sandwich and laugh.

Wouldn't it be cool to use dragon blast on people in a cage though lol

It is a game to play and have fun, you are right and it is the Assclowns who go AFK at Aspenwood that keep me from having fun.

Put them in a pit where they have to kill a bunch of enemies to get out. That way they can't go AFK and get out of the "prison" by doing their time AFK. Make them do something which they can't pass being AFK.

I agree the game is suppose to be for fun but AFKers don't make it fun at all. If we are going to lose a lot of people because they were AFK all the time I don't mind. In a sense they weren't playing the game anyway who cares if they leave.

/kick *player name*
/kagree
/kagree
/kagree
/kdisagree

3 agree's, 1 disagree, *playername* kicked from *place*

Solve every problem, and only allowing people on their team (ie all kurzicks or all luxons, or all blues or all reds) would make it fair instead of "whoever /kick first wins AB "

And then replacing said person with a henchman...

celab gots a much better way to get ride of the problem: ''AFK Leeching''

and have been In to a prison of a MMORPG once (ragnarok online LOL)
its not realy inpressive you just go afk and come back at some time move your character a bit so you dont go offline and once your time is up you pm the game master and he throws you out.


but in guildwars you dont have a auto loggout so you would go afk and come back once your allowed to get out.
(and never seen any game masters as well <_<)
no way your Idea would be put in the game

by the way dont hope you people think I am a basterd now
cous I ended up in that ragnarok prison once LOL

I will do this then, just for "fun":

I will type the following lines and copypaste spam them several times in chat:
CELAB IS A SCAMMER HE SCAMMED MY 100K FOR MINIPET!!!

*Celab has been sent to prison/kicked and is replaced with alesia*
Don: WOOT that shows them scammers!
Otherguy: gj guys
Wammo: woot what an ass

Still like your idea?


I have spent countless hours in in-game prisons because some ahole ran into my line of fire, didn't like the way my boots were tied or felt that he should have my stuff instead.
Adding a kicking system in GW where the PLAYERS HAVE CONTROL OVER OTHER PLAYERS is incredibly dumb.

Needless to say, I really really really hate these types of ideas and will freak out whenever I see it again.

I better leave this thread before I start talking about the burning again...

I like it. Make the prison like the medieval stocks or public punishment, and let people do flare at the prisoners. Down with leechers!!!

Perhaps let everybody spawn in a seperate cage, and if you stand in it, you will not gain any experience or faction... so you'll have to move through a portal first to actively participate in the battle...
