Please DO NOT go AFK on BF2
It upsets the rotation, and eventually, all the AFKs are on one team thanks to the wonderful Auto-balance.
Ruined the game for me tonight- we had 5 AFKs. Versus a full team plus 1 over on us.

I agree with you...whenever I have to go afk even for 15min cause my daughter wakes up from a nap or whatever...I close the game...it also gives mah rig a chance to restore all its resources and gameplay is allot smoother that way :D

I was AFK about 90% of today... The team I was on was having no troubles.

But you were a Squad leader and stupid people were complaining that you die too much (even though you were non existant the whole time)

Should have seen my commanding spree yesterday afternoon.... :twisted:
128 points and I killed more of my own than I did the other team.

Hey, yall need to watch your radar more often. I would drop artillery and it was like you guys ran to get in its way. I would put it down and yall were miles away. It goes to hit and yall were rate under it.
lol
On a better note, I am less than a 1000 points form my next promo. :)

I completely disagree with that.
You were in that group that I referenced in my post.
Half the team dropped off in that round, leaving me and two others.
I just logged out for a half hour and came back in.
I'm not taking it personally- but the fact of the matter is that we were getting owned, spawned killed, and etc.
Thanks for understanding.

Is it possible to have the AFK kicker on when we are over 12 people (or whatever #) and keep it off when we are below, so that we can get people on the server?

we are really dependent of AFKs ATM. I would personally love to play all the time but I can't as well as others.

Okay-
My productive suggestion would be to log the AFks we are dependent on during low value periods.
Maybe this isnt possible, but at least I can be more understanding with the reason why the server was being run this way yesterday.
During that massive session recently we still had 4 AFKs.
That made a big difference on the outcome.
Thanks!
P.S. I was bummed that you were AFK yesterday Bar, I like running around with you :)

I've made some additional suggestions about being afk. Always leave your squad. Switch to the team that has the fewest afks.

AFKS really aren't that big of a problem.... we just need to keep them even as possible. 4 AFKs Means 2 on each side.

needs to be done at start up. otherwise, it gets pretty unfair with 5v5 and 4 of your team are AFK.
but, fun things can happen when your afk..... like C4 jumping... lol.
