I have nothing better to do but kill your guardian and your KD until it sends you to orbit.
Enjoyed every second of this, more so than doing the actual strike. "YOU COULD'VE RAN X AMOUNT OF TIMES THROUGH STRIKES AND HURR YOU NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE YOU ARE WORSE THAN SATAN BECAUSE YADDA YADDA YADDA" Bruh, 919 strikes so far on my Titan alone. I'm good. Believe me. I'm set for vanguard marks and all that. Chill.
Edit 1: Holy crap, 14 likes? THIS WAS POSTED FOR FUN.
Edit 2: So... I'm guessing the Destiny community agrees with me? 27 likes so far.
Edit 3: I love the irony of all the people coming to the thread to tell me no one cares. Are you guys serious? lol
Edit 4 (THE BIG ONE):
[b]He wasn't afk for a few minutes-[/b]
This guy was away long enough for us to push him to Hellmouth and drop him into the hole over 60 times. When he finally left, he was alive and had not produced a ghost. Either he shut off his console, went to dashboard, or the game returned him to orbit for being away.
[b]He had/has a history of AFKing in games-[/b]
We looked on Destiny Database, looked at his recent games, and saw an obvious pattern. 15 of the past 25 games this player got 0-4 kills, several of the strikes were incomplete, and all were started with full fireteams.
[b]The 'other guy' who was carrying us is my girlfriend, we were in a party together-[/b]
Yeah, again, assumptions make an ass out of some of you. She helped push him over, helped kill him all those times, and helped res him. We had a hell of a time laughing and making fun of the guy the WHOLE TIME. This was fun. Maybe even a bit of a bonding experience for us.
[b]Killing him over and over was far more fun than actually running the strike-[/b]
We laughed, joked, and even put on Alpha Lupi to res him faster. We had some random there trying to help us and invited him to the party to talk. If the time is what has you bothered, it was late in the week. Vanguard mark were maxed, Sneezes had already gotten like 6 exotics from the Raids and from Nightfall. We were just playing to play.
[b]"No one cares"-[/b]
Since apparently its a cardinal sin for me to mention the likes, lets say this: it was trending, tons of people commented, plenty of them seemed to care (either enough to complain or enough to say "JOB WELL DONE"). You are simply wrong.
[b]Afk? AFK?! HOW DARE YOU, I HAVE NO KEYBOARD- [/b]
Well its really used as a general term. You're splitting hairs and have missed the point. Not sure what else to tell you.
[b]BUT I AFK ALL THE TIME LIFE HAPPENS-[/b]
If you afk for a full strike, you are part of the problem. Yes, I understand, sometimes the dog needs to go out. Yes, I know, kids get into trouble. If you are away for a few minutes, no biggy. Come back, lets play, good luck. But if you can't sit down and play for like 8 minutes to finish a strike without being interrupted, maybe stop trying to play something that forces multiplayer. Or you know, don't have a kid you aren't ready for. http://images.wikia.com/mungyodance/images/3/39/1354237059761.jpg
[b]We didn't use sparrows to kill him. [/b]
[u]I will never ever carry an afker through a strike. No, its not hard to run. No, I will not let someone get a reward for not playing the game. [/u]
EDIT 5: [quote]Quitters Never Win
While finessing a boss encounter is all well and good, you won’t appreciate the difference unless you actively participate in the Strike. That might make all the sense in the world to you, but there are players in our world who prefer to hang out in the rear with the gear and let their Fireteam brave all the danger.
Once again, John Hopson is on the case. User Research, after all, is all about the science of improving the player experience.
JH: In Destiny’s community, the efforts of a dedicated player can have a huge impact on the experience of hundreds or thousands of other players. Most of the time, this is awesome. When someone is willing to put in the time as a Raid sherpa, a clan leader, or a forum moderator, we all benefit and Destiny comes a little bit closer to its potential as a shared world.
Unfortunately, there are a few individuals who have put in that same level of monomaniacal effort into being jerks. Sitting idle in Strikes and PvP has been on our radar for a while now, but it’s become clear that a small number of the worst idlers are responsible for damaging the experiences of thousands of other players. One player not contributing in an activity might seem like a small thing, but it can make a Weekly Heroic Strike unbeatable or make a Crucible match unwinnable. Those little bits of damage to the experiences other players adds up over time.
This week, we’ve restricted a small number of the most toxic players from matchmaking. The restrictions we’re putting on their accounts are temporary and apply only to the activities where they were chronically idle. If the affected players keep up this behavior after the restrictions lapse, we will apply stronger and (eventually) permanent restrictions on their accounts.
How this policy applies to you:
1) It probably doesn’t. Do not panic just because you had to put down the controller in a Strike last week when the pizza guy showed up just as your fireteam reached Valus Ta'aurc. There is no way you will accidentally be flagged under this policy unless you are a truly dedicated idler, someone who has really gone out their way to repeatedly cheat their teammates.
2) Please be sure to use the reporting system to let us know how your teammates are affecting your Destiny experience, both positively and negatively. We will never act on player reports alone, but we use those reports to find areas and individuals where our automated detection systems aren’t working correctly. They are an invaluable part of how we tune the live experience of our game.[/quote]
Bungie posted this, here: https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=12738 Pretty sure that means we win. Go ahead, go afk.

I am completely fine with what you have done. Afkers in my strikes get the same treatment. I give a little time in case they are in an emergency dump situation, then I will sparrow them. Justice!

3 AntwortenI love you

I read that in the next patch they are working to get people to stop going AFK and leaving strikes, among other things.

5 AntwortenThe thing I hate the most about randoms is when THEY DONT REVIVE YOU

Just saw the New Update... Friggin' amazinggg...
-
Don't listen to the haters this is awesome! Most people hating are probably AFK douches themselves. I one spent a considerable amount of time to wipe and move a guy forward until he was in a spot where he would get killed a lot, unfortunately he came back right as I was getting him into position and actually finished the strike.

This is what I do

3 AntwortenI had to give you a like just for the "I'm ready for your rage" cartoon. That in its own makes this posting a winner. BTW - normally I'm not in favor of a kick option, but this one of the rare occasions that I wish there was one. This type of "AFK" (or for those that are so butt hurt over the term AFK - AFmC) behavior is not acceptable nor is it appreciated.

2 AntwortenJust respond to peoples posts.....thats how this works....no one cares for all the attention seeking edits.
-
1 Antwortento all the people that say "life happens, i had to go" that's fine. just leave the strike and play when you're available to.
-
No, they are not ur strikes, and you can't kill us 20k times
-
Totally and completely agree! Just wish people waited 30 seconds before assuming I was an afk guy, had someone try to kill me while I was peeing between strikes like twice, lol.
-
You know you can report people for afk'ing?

Start of Nexus. Push a-hole off cliff-lands on ledge. Get Sparrow-jump off as it goes over cliff-Sparrow takes a-hole with it. Prick tries to jump back to safety. A-hole lolololololol.

They aren't your strikes. And yes, AFK is lame

1 AntwortenI usually launch them off the map with my sparrow I'll solo the damned strike if I have to because I will not carry an afk player

3 AntwortenWow you must have a ton of free time on your hands if this is your idea of fun. I'll write your name down, and if I end up in a strike with you, I'll go afk just so you can waste your time pushing me off a cliff. Kill my KD? DaFuq cares about KD? lol [quote]We had a great time pushing this afk guy off the cliff! We laughed together, we held hands, we told jokes! We mocked this guy who was away from his console doing something else. Maybe making a sammich, maybe taking a dump. Maybe he was hoping we would take him through the strike! Haha! The joke was on him!! We instead spent LOTS of time killing him, and his KD!!! I think I impressed this girl, she seemed to get hot from watching me push this afk guy off a cliff. True story bro.[/quote]

7 AntwortenJust saying if they are afking a strike I'm sure they could care less about pve kd. The best part is he was probably sitting there laughing at you two fools wasting time to kill him that many times. Hope I find you in a strike I will afk till you leave c;

Heh. 69 deaths.

2 AntwortenI don't get why people are so butthurt about this post, I see people commenting on here saying "If I have to go to the bathroom I have to go" or "I have a kid" ok then, this post doesn't apply to you unless you afk the whole strike. No one wants to hear your excuses, if you don't afk for the whole strike then I'm pretty sure this post doesn't apply to you.

Good job! i hate afkers, cant stand em
