Also afk is different from shops because they don’t pay taxes and require no player interaction. I can have a shop up for days and no one click on it, but AFK for days and make millions.
This. They’d go as far as calling them bots and throwing all logic out of the window. These two things are the only acceptable argument against afk farming:
-
It disrupts the economy. Simple concept of inflation. You increase the amount of silver circulating -> lower value of silver
-
It competes with quest objectives of those going through the map.
Your post is like one year late. IMC doesn’t agree full stop. Everything you said has been said before 100 times.
Usually i will swap to my cryo, i push them aside with ice wall. Should take about 3-4 of rotations to push them far away enough

Keep the votes and opinions coming, make noise!
I honestly, like most of you, had enough of this.
Wen the community is this one sided about it, wen the GAME itself is being hurt with loss of new players because of it, wen current and long term players feel wronged due to people who DONT even play the game, then something MUST be done.

“mystical bread dude”
I totally lost it on that part 
I honestly don’t agree to AFK farming being punishable / bannable because it’s pointless. Moderation can barely cope with the current game and community as it is.
I could easily blame players who made Necros, but this is entirely IMC’s fault here. They “enabled” this mechanic ( probably without any wisdom or forethought over the repercussions it might have on the gaming experience and player-driven economy as well ). What I would really like them to do, is rewrite the summoned mob mechanics for necro to avoid any further AFK-farming abuse.

I think people fail to realize that a policy change alone even if it isn’t heavily enforced, (yes there would have be some enforcement to let people know it is possible you get banned) would stop some people from doing it. Im half tempted to do it myself because I know other people can and are, and the only reason I would be doing it is because the rules allow it. No a policy change won’t stop everyone.
But everyone saying “I’d rather them change mechanics, they have a bad history of enforcement” well they also have a bad history of coding. Anyone bought back any items lately? Anyone played a hunter? How about used Telekenisis and crashed? The easiest short term solution would be a policy change. Ultimately afk farming should be mechanically impossible with in game techniques alone, however I am hesitant to suggest that because IMC wouldn’t do so in an elegant non intrusive way (manipulating pet AI etc) they’d do so by making summoners disappear or drain health or some obnoxious way that ultimately decreases the enjoyment of the summoning classes.
This is exactly what i’v been stressing out.
No need for mechanics change, they would most likely break summons or make them even worst to use.
The way they function right now is not the best, but we are used to it and know how to make it work.
Putting community rules in place, or policy terms of use changes would be the best choice.
Having an Option to report abusive behavior NEEDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED @IMC
Not just for AFK Farming, i remember not long ago being out right abused by someone, he asked me how i got my Leaf Penguin, as he asked me i wasent looking at my screen, turned away to speak to someone that was next to me.
In the space of 3secs i looked away he got really upset i didnt answer him straight away and called me a cunt, go ■■■■ yourself and a lot of crap like that, my chat was spammed with insults.
I right clique this player and shocking, no report player, report abuse, report anything option.
Right clique the chat name, no report option other then report for chat spam.
You cant just run an MMORPG and not police or watch over the people playing it, there HAS TO BE stricter terms of use.
True that! As said in one of Log Horizon episode: “Laws are what people create, and others recognize. Even if the system doesn’t attack it (AFK FARMING) doesn’t mean its not illegal.” or something like that… 
I did a report today about this. There’s a GUILD made for AFK farming on Orsha server. If IMC did nothing about this, I’ll realy drop this game.
I take a time, come back because of the reset event and now I see a GUILD for bot/afk farm that obviously are the source of the gold(silver) sellers. IMC is doing the ban on the sellers but not the source of the silver. This is ridiculous.
The game has already a few real players, if this keep going, there will be only afk and gold(silver) sellers.
POINTLESS TOPIC.
Just stop.
