    I honest think that afking should be allowed in factions simply cause like out of the 10 factions servers i have played on this one is the only one that has no AFKing when things cost so much, several servers have a set reset early hours which will kick people AFKing over night

    The Problem though is that some people do not have the option of leaving their pc running at night. So to make it fairer afking is not allowed for anyone. As people who can afk would have a much easier time.

    As much as I would like to see afk return (all the mcmmo mining levels on skyblock...) it's actually better for afk to be bannable. What would you do as a newcomer to the server if you entered the game and tried to talk with people, only to get silence in return?

    I agree, you should be rewarded for how much you play not how much you AFK. That was not an intentional rhyme...

    Doubt afking will ever be allowed on any of the servers, get your stuff through hardwork not afking. If you need to afk to do something, just go to hub or logout totally. And get back to farming once you'rer back.

    If thats the case all you have to do is hit the spacebar every so often while you watch it isn't that much effort

    - Greeting's TheNoobGamerHD,

    The fun of minecraft is working for the materials. Hard work pays off and it feels good realizing what you've done after you did it. AFKing just shows that you don't want to take the time to actually play. If you don't want to actually move around and play then don't play at all. What about those who can't or don't know how to afk? Players would be way to stacked and also the bases. This would give others the advantage and wouldn't be much fun for those who can't AFK.

    Therefor, I don't think this should be allowed and there should be bigger consequences.

    Yeah, I feel the same way BurninPh30nix, AFKing would definitely give an unfair advantage for players like me who cannot leave my computer running all night long like other players

    I personally don't think AFKing should be allowed as it may cause lag with mob drops and also it isn't very fun and its a waste of time and money. What I mean by this is you have paid for a Minecraft account which isn't too expensive but not too cheap either, and your going to use that account to sit there and do nothing? What's the point in that? What I do is either AFK away from any grinders or just do other things that need doing next to the grinders or perhaps working on them to upgrade them. Besides, it really isn't hard to log back on and start grinding/farming again, is it?
