    Let us report AFKers

    Please allow us to report AFKers in the Scoreboard. If enough reports, a counter should pop up on the culprit's screen. If the AFKers does not react to e.g. randomly placed button or some typing, a kick should take place.

    It's way too easy to just create macros (e.g. logitech software) that repeatably keep the character away.

    even if i agree, sometimes stuff can came up, like a phone call. in witch you have to realise that the phone call its more important than the game. i now some people ate ****ty players and just afk for rewards but what about those few times in which something really does interfere?

    If you have a very long phone call for instance, then I think you should've left the game yourself instead of potentially ruining the game for the others. However with a short phone call your AFKing would probably go unnoticed, or you could still pass the AFK check.

    Players who AFK for exploitative purposes should be reported directly to the support team.There is a kick timer in the game to catch players and we do have anti-cheat that is supposed to catch players using simple means to avoid the afk kick. However, there will be times that the game doesn't pick that up. In those cases you can also report them as a cheater to the team through the in-game menu.

    I've been reporting them for griefing, however that does not fix the immediate problem. Reporting to support is very inconvenient and I have a feeling majority just skips it.

    Kick timer started by players has worked in many other games.
