Hey Guys,

So I`ve been doing some PvP on the PvE Realm throughout the leveling Phase and on lvl 60 aswell.

The BG`s on this Server seem to have big Problem in both Phases.
Theres loads of leeches Semi-afking the battlegrounds for either XP in the leveling Phase or Rep on lvl 60.

I totally understand that PvE players might not be interested in PvP content in the slightest but with the game being 20 years old, guides up everywhere, and the BiS Madness goind on despite overtuned Damage anyways theres loads of People Queueing BG`s, essentially running to a safespot, doing nothing and just waiting for the rep to rack in to get their PvP based item for PvE content.

This destroys the fun for everyone else, if you are not willing to participate the content, you don`t deserve the item, simple as that.

A Vote to kick option in BG`s would atleast give the people trying to enjoy the content means to thin out the leeches and restore some kind of meaningful Gamplay.

Hope you guys give it a consideration and Peace out

Absolutely against this, will just get a bunch of mongoloids vote kicking people defending on AB for example. Basically the loudest idiot in the room will convince others that someone doing absolutely nothing wrong should get kicked.

We've seen this system before. We know the end result.

The following are considered False Enlistment, and are forbidden on our network:

AFK-ing during a battleground.

Report them to a GM. It's already against the rules. This isn't modern WoW, we actually have GMs. Don't need automated abusable systems.

And hey for whatever it's worth, the idea isn't horrible-- it's just that people are horrible and will 100% abuse it.

My advice is make a video of someone being AFK, at least a bit of course, and then make a ticket as the main issue with these reports is that if we don't see them live we won't sanction the player.

Organised groups or even normal players could abuse it kicking out low geared players. That's why it will never be implemented.

Besides, the participants of the battleground shouldn't vote for kicking out other participants, it should be judged by third parties - game masters. That's how it is now. You see AFKers - write a ticket, usually they respond in 1 min or so.

The problem of AFKing is serious though. We don't report them often enough.
