And in response to the AFK grinding, the game is targeted to all people, not just those without a job/girlfriend/social life. So there should be some way for us people who can/will only dedicate a couple of hours a day to playing, but still want to go Jedi, achieve what we want. Until they develop a system that is fair and gives the same kind of opportunities to those who play for 12 hours a day the same as those who play for 2, there is nothing wrong with a little AFK macro. This is why the devs haven't nerfed/removed it yet.

I AM a casual gamer. I am married with a wife, 2 kids, a sys admin job and bills to pay. I did my jedi not afk but actually PLAYING my char. Did I do it in the shortest amount of time, no I did it over time. The system they have in place is perfectly fine. People now want everything fast and easy, no work involved. AFK combat grinding to me is retarded. This is the reason why the Devs nerfed some loot spawn points due to AFK'ers. Nyax Pre CU ring any bells? Or Aaukuan caves now? Or Geo caves Pre Cu? If you are all in favor and want to help the afker's go ahead, its your choice,I wont.

that's just a sloppy rendition of one i used to use to grab the 3 combat cols in bounty hunter. I didn't use /follow though, that part is more of a joke. It does work, but its not something you could use to effectively grind anything anymore. A variation was also used for creature handling xp, but again, all pre CU. The best afk combat macros now are the ones that are popular in china for ebay purposes where you use a collection fo CL 14-20 players, but even with that the full group has at least 1 ATK player, the rest can effectively work afk and you can make buckets of credits if you need them that badly...
