Had it .. Enough is enough, either participate or log off.

(redacted) decided to AFK and waste our time, toss on ignore/block. Player reported. Waste someone else's time.

    They did. It's called an AFK penalty. And that's all they (and most other games) will ever do. Merely AFK'ing/leeching, is not a ban-worthy offense.

    AFK/wasting the time of those who actually participate is also griefing .. If these people cannot handle flying through a colored circle with a flashy arrow that even has the game BEEP BOP BOOP as everyone wants nowadays, they can log off and play candy crush. 20+ failures with only two correct completions per ship is utterly pathetic.

    Rant threads are also against the ToS. You did all you could in reporting them.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    Its not that they zoned in and went AFK, they flew next to a ship and just sat there, with the team screaming at them to move and do the objective.

    My toddler needed a sudden diaper change.

    The phone rang and it was important.

    The doorbell rang and it was important.

    My son's online class disconnected and I had to provide tech support.

    I got wife aggro.

    That's a tiny sample of excuses why I may have to go AFK (disregarding actual in-game foolishness like Swarm's timer-gameplay during which you accomplish nothing by NOT going AFK). Who the cuss are you to call for me to get banned over this? I already get a leaver penalty, ne? Chill out.

    In before the lock. :)

    Sounds like a "you" problem. Dont hit the queue button unless you can dedicate the 10 minutes a successful run takes. Not 45 minutes of failure.

    and that's enough out this flame fest. name and shame is against the forum rules and it will get shut down every time. If you believe someone to be violating rules, then file a report. naming and shaming here will not be tolerated. /closed
