| Author | Bigger punishment for afk in battle |
|---|
| My internet connection if fairly good, not laggy or anything, however, it just goes off for no reason whatsoever occasionally, without warning. I don't have enough time to get back on, usually. A surrender option would be best, but it could be just as annoying if every person left, thereby giving the opponents hardly any points. The AI might be best, all through the match, and give the -2 luck as penalty only. |
I got somethimes hardware reset, and trust me eaven in this situation there is lots of time to boot system, and rejoin to battle.
Look at this:

6,6,6 vs 6(me),5,5 - gues what happend?.... lol 3xAFKERS in 1 battle.
Afkers in my time: no way to win, unfair, I won play, etc.
No kick, they WRITE, but didn't fight.
Again items durabity -1 |
I do not think a withdraw challenge will be an option,
why are people afk?
because timers for when battle begins are to long, oh, 14minutes to start? I can go make some coffe then,
while it starts in 1 minute because it is full.
every challenge should have only a 5 minute wait timer (that will also clear out those "lets see if some sucker will bite on this uneven battle" for the chances will be quite low in that time.
normally people are afk from the beginning and those are the most annoying.
when people go afk after some moves, i assume they lost connection (like i had coouple of days ago, and couldnt reconnect), but also the waiting time is a lot less, that first turn can be deadly to wait. |
it has nothing ti do with bad internet connection once iw as winning a group battle and then a guy said i must go i have to do and i stayed 1 vs 2
i think 24 hours of punishment is good for evry afk battle |
| /sign 1 day ban |
If one guy "afks" cant someone on the other team just do the same, or wait 'till no chance of victory for the other guys and pounce on them?
just click defend for all of your guys and wait until there is a clear victor? There's really nothing that can be done, but add a surrender button for those who do not wish to waste others time but have no choice but to leave, that can have the luck penalty, something harsher for others?
But the issue of bad connection, no solution to fit in wit what I've written already...
Quite a dilemma... |
| i think u shold be ban if u do it 10 times each level. take away gold + resorces. and if happen 20 times - a structure 2 ur casle |
BANNING for AFK is not a good idea.. never is.. and never will....
ppl do drop out for no reason. sometiems it's even server. Yesteday.. for 2 battle.s. i droopped out halfway.. error sending instruction... other pages work fine
the most FEASIBLE is that AI take over.. that's it.... |
i think we should make it -10 luck for afk
and have pings in case of Disconnecting
and in case of a disconnect they should only get -1 luck |
| why not let people tag a player as afk when that happens. If enough people tag a player as afk, people won't want to play with them. Maybe it could be part of an overall reliability score or something. |
| i have to agree, letting the a.i take over works for everyone |
| Sven.... if minusing eXP is what everybdoy wants.. then why not lose every battle... u get RELATIVELY more skill points in combat losing than winning comparing to experience |
| mayby decrease experiance 3-5% ? |
| yeah my server went down on me when i was going to fight a friend but it kept saying server error please try again later and i would but it would repeat itself. then my entire system crashed and i felt bad cause we had just started the battle. my server would then not start back up. |
| i think maybe for a problem like this it could be like give the opponent 500 gold or some lower price |
| not at all necessary.some people in some places get very bad connection.how will they fell if they r banned for a day.on the contrary how wud u urself feel sven if u r banned for day from playing lords? |
Looooooool!! What does punishment if your afk? Just get the Vote-kick system!
Pff... no one understands :S |
So,if you have bad internet, you must be punished? -2 luck is enough for punishment
I'm not quite a true believer, but I do think that this is what the God(s) want it to happen. Just accept it and the un-happiness will become nothing.
Plus, maybe not just -2 luck but -5/10% initiative. Initiative is 1 very important stat, but it is just as well as morale, and morale is just as important as luck. Because undead troops aren't affected by morale, the server uses -2 luck instead of -2 morale. However, the conclusion is initiative is very important and the reduction maybe just punishing enough. |

No, this promotes more illigal 'transfer' to occur. |
