WoW General News - Jan 8, 2008 8:11 AM PST | Posted by Pashta  


There has been a problem with many people going AFK in the battleground to get free honor points and tokens.  

Blizzard has responded by lowering the number of AFK complaints necessary to boot one from the game with a hotfix on January 7th.  A post on the forums by Vaneras here:

To help improve the quality of play in Battlegrounds we have applied a Hotfix that significantly reduces the number of AFK reports needed to mark a player as inactive and prevent them from gaining Battleground Marks and Honor Points.

For information on how to do complete an AFK report, please see the “AFK Reporting” section here:
http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/faq/afk.html

Also, our In-Game Support Department is regularly checking for inactive players and they will be issuing disciplinary measures for those found violating our policies.

Interesting move, but I'm still not convinced it'll stop them.

To be honest, I'm not sure what would... hmm... thread idea....

Well I have to say, a few of us hit AV last night from about 9:30pm to the early hours and I have to say, I think during that time, even in the graveyard shift, I only saw about 2 AFKers, whatever they have done... It's working so far.... for now Smiley
