Ok so if your going AFK and you get kicked whats to stop players running into the wall near the camp fire.

Or does the player get kicked for being near the camp area for to long, I really hope its this one.

I only ask because this was introduced into RaiderZ and all the AFKers did was run into a wall.

    You can get kicked at any time on any whim that the party leader has (who was randomly chosen if you queue'd). AFK, middle of combat, boss about to die, PvP match about to end, doesn't matter.

    It's an astonishingly stupid system. Fortunately, I haven't run into any jerk leaders yet.

    edit: Oh, I guess you're asking about the new auto-kick for AFK. Yeah, I don't know how that one works, but I thought it would just be for AFK time period, not proximity to campfire.

    yea im asking about the new AFK pvp auto kick, AFK for time period will not work as you can jam a button in to run into the wall =/

    I was lucky to have only found one in my entire PVP experience in the game so far. I was setting up my skills by the campfire after I saw the opposing team had 2 CW's. Was wanting to go for Impossible to Catch and removing Sneak Attack for Invisible Infiltrator, but some jerk of a party leader decided for me that I was AFK-ing and kicked me out.

    I find my self changing skills to fit how my enemy are playing or what skills / class they are and have been kicked for that too. would be nice if we had a grace period of 10*IE seconds after a death to choose our skills (cant be kicked during grace).

    any who still no official word on this =)?

    The game has some smarts. I am not going to tell you what all it seems to be able to detect, but for sure, putting a weight on the W key so you run in place in a corner does not stop the idle afk message or being logged out.
