I got ten times as much honor playing AV than I did trying to afk it, so its not really worth the risk now, but its still effective enough that people will do it.

Now I'm actually contemplating afking the OTHER bg's because every fucking pug I've joined the last two weeks has started out with 15 alliance vs 5-10 horde. Horde has an average of 10 minute queues, so people queue up across the board and fuck themselves into these lopsided games. I don't remember that shit happening to alliance when they had three times as many level 70's as horde. (dunno what the hell happened since then) Pug AB went from automatic win to "well gee I hope we get at least 10 before the game starts."

EOTS is pointless to pug. I joined a game, 15 on 15. I went to Fel Reaver. I was alone. Alliance sent two people, who I saw coming well ahead of time so I asked for help. Help never arrived. Alliance proceeded to cap four towers with their shit geared pug. I /danced at the graveyard for a bit after noting that at least four other horde had also stopped bothering to leave the GY (they weren't afk)

Yeah, I'd rather afk my 1 token at a time than play a pug that is outnumbered from the start. I'd rather have 5-10 people in a premade than do either, though, and more than likely I'll get the tokens I need that way and I won't actually afk them, because unlike a lot of those fucks I'd feel like a tool doing it.

I have every intention of losing my way to the 10 or so WSG marks I need, afk or not, as even getting a premade isn't worth dealing with the possiblity of some fuck sploiting a flag and wasting my time. I hate hate HATE wsg. Fuck people, stop slowing them down and just fucking lose so we can get this over with. I bet we can lose our way 1 token at a time faster than winning.

I've done it in AV and felt like an ass doing it, but I just rerolled and my green ass shit isn't doing anyone any good. I've also spent 12 hour days playing nothing but AV so at least I contributed that much.

PS: People are doing a SHIT job reporting afkers now, even during primetime. If they are going to be that goddamn lazy about reporting then its hard to feel bad about doing it.
