    Absolutely true. I just find completely disrespectful to join a group activity in wow (LFD, LFR, Scenario) and just remain AFK and expect get carried by the others, wasting other people's time. So when i join LFR, i actually contribute to the run, and avoid AFKing.

    Nah, LFR is a good place to have fun padding the meters.

    I might put a friend on follow for trash though.

    Im a hunter, fight begin and i pop all my CD and top meter burst. 45-50 sec later, when everything is on cd, i go afk

    No. As I play mainly tank classes I have to work much to hard to stay alive with half of the healers undergeared or not trying and the other half afk or on follow.

    I can't believe so many people actually do this, never thought it would be a majority at the very least. I never have and never will, just seems like a scumbag thing to do.

    Sometimes, when I just really don't feel like doing it. Of course it would go faster if my DPS was in the fight (since I'm finally valor geared and I pull some good DPS), but sometimes I really have no interest since I'm not getting drops anymore.


    Damn you Wrathion and the 6000k valor you want -.-

    every single week on main and alts, I idle, afk, on most fights. I raid on my main and thats more then enough for me too bother with raid content, LFR new raid been out for a while most times is no wipes, so I auto shoot on hunter or cast a few on my casters and idle in lfr, usually doing something else on my other account on 2nd screen.

    If raid wipes, then I will assist with dpsing, other wise, nup afk ftw in that crap hole

    I mostly try to pull as much dps as possible to get it over quicker, but sometimes you have to go afk to pee, and then ill run like no tommorrow!

    I don't on my 2 primary characters, but my 4 alts I afk hard when I bother to run them. Autoattack, tab to netflix, etc. When I actually put in effort and actually pay attention to the other people in the group they piss me off way too much.

    I will AFK if I have to get LFR done + something else, if I get a choice between doing school work or LFR, why not chose both? I will generally just play properly, and even if I afk 70% of the time, the 30% of the time I'm doing something is enough to get me into top 5 of overall damage most of the time.

    I stopped caring about people being afk a long time ago, theres also several times where we 12-15manned bosses because people were afk or just really bad.

    I dont technically afk. But I wont avoid any damage and I occasionally go out of my way to take damage. If I get killed I kick back and read an ebook till the boss is dead.

    But untill I do die I do go balls out on dps.

  15. #335
    yeah on my rogue this week i was afk for all 16 bosses, playing lol on the other screeen only got kicked 1 time - but hey i could que again

    yeah it sucks to be like this, but i feel i need to do lfr to get the upgrades i can, and the valor, but its just to boring, relly hate thay put it into the game

    There've been many times where I've deliberately underperformed - usually by doing little more than auto-attacking - but I've never just gone afk entirely.

    I've never done it on purpose. I always try to play to the same standard - whether I'm raiding with a guild, in a PUG, or doing LFR. I don't see a good reason to perform poorly just because a lot of other people don't care.

    That said, I have done an LFR or two after coming home drunk, and let's just say that those don't always go well for me.

    Usually I burst all cd's win dps then afk till execute phase and win dps again. Some fights just ain't worth my time and I completely tab out/leave the computer. I understand why lfr is in the game and it does serve a purpose but with the current looting system and the fact that it's beyond faceroll I simply can't spend any meaningful amount of time or energy in there.

    I've never gone full afk during any fight, but I have tried just doing auto shoot on my hunter and pressing serpeant sting every 15 second or so while watching TV. No pet control, no explosive/arcane shot, CDs. Nothing.

    I was number 6 on DPS.
