[FF2/(VSH?)] Is fake AFKing allowed?

Post by Hylie »

Is fake afk'ing as the Hale allowed? If so, to what extent? I see a lot of people doing this lately and idk if this is technically against the rules or not.

I don't think AFK'ing is allowed. I'm note sure if the AFKManager plugin even works, as it doesn't on Surf.
This is goodbye.

I'd look at it as a legitimate strategy. You're acting like an animal that's hiding, waiting for a perfect moment to strike your pray.

I've seen plenty of Hales that pretend to afk and lure the unsuspecting in for easy kills. I see that as a decent strategy. Plus it makes a lot of people mad so...

It works on Mariokart. I can't really comment on this since I neither play FF2 a lot nor am I a FF2 admin.

Same. Free dmg then you die then you should have been more careful. Plus veteran players should also be vary like a cpt falcon for example. Either way. Not really an isssue since he doesn't stall and gets the kill. Cheap but it works as a legit mechanic

ಠ_ಠ

Edit: I wrote the AFKManager for the idle servers, it's under admin control to warn then kick a player, it just shows if a player has been away for a certain amount of time for the admins to see then kick.

AFK Manager works on FF2, VSH, and DR. These are the only servers I know who are able to use the plugin.
