Thread: no afk xp

i feel its more than the end of afk'ers but the end of the profession as well.Who will look at their character for hours on end without any interaction needed just for some xp?i have played my character live quite a bit untill i discovered macros and the tips are hardly worth it.working up towards a master dancer or musician is too tedious for the amount of money gotten so maybe the best solution is to get rid of the entertainer professions.
Well... I am dancing for hours and I didn't get/needed dancing exp since summer 2003 (with the short exception of the theatrical quest). And the point is to interact with people. In other words: Who would play their character afk for hours without any interaction, for... nothing at all?

but again in all fairness i would like to have been able to work my character up the way everybody else has.
No, not everybody else has. Don't say you know everyone has mastered with at least a little afk leveling because it's just not true. We have plenty of posters in here who have never afk leveled any Ent skill box at all on any char.
I'm not one of them, I have afk leveled in a private house or more recently a yacht on some of my Master Dancers if I was in a rush, but others I have done 100% atk. It's darn slow, but it's doable. If I'm not in a rush for any reason like an event, I see no reason not to do it 100% atk and just play through it. What's the point in rushing if you have nothing in particular you are trying to master in time for?
Anyway, you're just bugged. Read the bug thread.

Not nothing at all but to master an elite profession.most people who go in a cantina dont pay much attention to the lower level ents because they dont have buffs or they're not as good.Therefore the money doesnt come in which, in any profession, is needed wether to buy instruments or clothing or a new house or furniture, just anything that combat trades get to buy.I know, if i dont like it i should just go to combat trades...fair enough but again in all fairness i would like to have been able to work my character up the way everybody else has.Wether its for the conversation or meeting people or whatever, everybody has been afk and everybody has used a macro.
I think you must have been AFK little to long not to notice the buff changes. Any novice entertainer can give exactly same buff as triple master.
As for no exp while in zombie state, I’m willing to bet it’s a bug, since unfortunately devs like zombies, so don’t worry, sad truth is they will most likely fix it 
Oh yeah, just because you AFK doesn’t mean everyone else does. Took me about 6 months to get triple master and it was done ATK. Why? Well *gasp* because I do like the profession, of all available professions in SWG this is the only one I like.

Well! i'm getting flogged here! which is fair but really, my big whinge was just about not being told about that particular fix, which as i've read is just a bug...so apologies to everyone and disregard all previous by me!
cya all later for more whinging..
Lets hope this is not a bug, and you can add me to the list of never gained afk xp I got my master 100% at the keyboard yeah it took me months but I enjoyed every minute of it, I use macros to time flourishes and it keeps my hands free for chatting, it's also very usefull when you have a wriggly baby on your knee
. Frankly I think you should stop doing any ingame action when your afk it would certainly put a stop to the afk zombie ents and those very annoying afk grinders and looters.Ipana xx
