Thread: Remove AFK combat.
making no xp for macros will never work because noone will ever get xp. the server is not a collective brain it can not tell the difference between someone pressing a button in the toolbar or typing out the command or having a macro run a list of commands. what they never should have changed was being able to attack when the (afk) is above your head. There are other ways to fix it. I promise you if you kill the afk grinders on Kashyyyk over and over and over again they will give up eventually. the nimrods will always be on the terminals because they are killing NPC's instead of being smart and taking advantage of the no visibilty gain from groups killing critters. like i said patience.

I like AFK macros and it is stupid to exclude them. Im always happy to track a jedi who used afk grinding to reach his lvl and visibility so i could hunt them and finally kill him. With a Jedi who not used AFK grinding it is mostly more difficult to kill him.
More Noob Jedi (Ryyat Trials AFK Grind) = More victims = More Cash in our Bankaccounts
Just my opinion...
The program code is the easiest thing. Sure you must be able to program the game to detect that your not pressing the buttons and thet the commands runs from a continous loop.
If thats too hard - just remove xp after killing the same critter repetedly. Say no xp after 10 kills on the same spot. After that you have to move to a new location, minimum 500m away or kill something diffrent in between.
There are alot of diffrent solutions to this problem if your creative and really want to fix it. I dont buy that program code excuse.
And I dont want any easy AFK jedi kills - it wont give me anything. No thrill at all. And I'm not in the BH biz cause of the cash. I'm getting better cash selling loot.
