    You can't lose Warfronts ... you just get into a state where you don't win either.
    You can lose though..

    I voted yes, but in reality I only "half afked", getting some wood, watching something on my other screen, getting some wood, watching something else on my other screen.

    The thing is just so boooooooooring man, and you can't really "rush" it, so why bother?

    If the content is so bad it is afkable it falls on the devs to make it more challenging .

    If people knew they could afk for free gear no matter how "good" the content was people would still go /afk because most of WoW's playerbase are lazy and bad at the game anyway. There's LFR for them, and when they are done with that why would they not /afk in Warfronts while they make lunch?

    Also, "ask in warrants". Eh? I guess you're that type of player then. But don't fret, you'll get your welfare epics.

    Thats why:

    Warfronts
    Players who are Away From Keyboard will now be automatically removed from the Warfront.

    People would still /afk though because they can, and there's plenty of moronic muppets in the game that wouldn't care about content anyway if they could /afk their way to welfare epics. Seen plenty of them and the few warfronts I did there were always more than two people afk for the entire duration of the battle. Of course with the usual 4k achievement points and only LFR progress. Glad a change like this is going through, the game is already catered towards laziness and free loot, don't want it to become worse.

    While you're AFK in Warfronts, go look up proofreading.

    The solution is to tune it so it needs all 20 members participating. The idea it is afkable makes it afkable.

    ???

    It will remove afk players, therefor it will have 20 members participating. What are you trying to say here? To make it more challenging?

    Yes, I figured that was rather clear. Though making it a battleground would help as well.

    Untrue. In every single expansion + the core game people have gone their ways to get gear by doing as little as possible. It's just made easier now and there's not a lot of punishment for doing so.
