AFK with a friend?

[Nexorian]

So this guy griefs (nothing really bannable, just coming mid and losing us the game).
afterwards he goes afk in fountain, but since he has a friend he can't be kicked. is this bannable?

also, after the game is WAY MORE than over, they refuse to cc in order to grief us.

Short answer: yes going afk with having a friend that won't kick you is considered avoiding afk detection

According to the Report abusive behaviour guide u are wrong. Let me quote. "Please note that the following are examples of non reportable instances of AFK detection abuse. If u report any of these actions, your case will be closed and your deposit will be lost.

Player was marked AFK and never kicked."

So obviously either u are wrong or S2 is. If it's a misstake my S2 I suggest they change it asap since it's implying something that according to u isnt true!

Please read more thourghly next time:




Examples of AFK Abuse

Periodically moving around in or behind fountain to avoid AFK detection
Periodically leaving the base without intention to participate or help the team
Intentionally damaging self or activating spells/items/abilities to avoid AFK detection
Moving around/through trees on the edges of the map
Farming continuously without intending to help the team (particularly when base towers/barracks are being pushed)
Going AFK with the intention/knowledge of having a friend who refuses to vote kick you




The highlighted component is what I am referring to and is what is the question asked in the OP.

In my Hon client, which is for windows, I dont have/see any examples of AFK abuse when reporting a player for griefing-AFK abuse. Where do I find those?

The HoN Client is not all-inclusive for the RAP rules, you have to read the forum link Wolffmother provided
