There's an issue with certain players who get into PVEs during the bonus marks event and just sit there doing nothing while everyone else does the work to deter such unacceptable sponging behaviour I'd like to suggest a rewards system that rewards participation or a system if they don't fire their gun or ship weapons they get no rewards at the end, or a system where players aren't placed into instances with people they have on ignore cause at the moment even if you ignore a bad player you can still get stuck in a match with them.

First: You could have used an already existing thread adressing the afk player problem, there are atleast 2 of them on the first page of this subforum and a lot more on the following
Second: "Faking" to do something is would be easy with a basic script. And for doing real stuff towards the goal there is already a system like this is active in Crytaline Entity, Gorn Minefield, Big Dig, Klingon Scout Force and others.
But it doesnt work 100% and the results which place you get is way too random.
I remember getting #1 place one time during the crystaline entity event with my farming char which only had a lev40 ship with its standard grey weapons and basicly just autofiring on the entity.
I did a CE event, but lagged really badly, so my ship just twitched around, i had no control. At the end when i regained control i was full thrusters into the sun.
I got zero marks. The rewards box didn't exist.
So i think they already have this in place. If you don't do x amount of y, you don't get rewards

At the time I posted I couldn't find any other threads
