    player not kicking another afk player

    i played a game in which one of my teammate died 2 times in the first 3 mins of the game and decided to go afk.
    what happened next is that another teammate(which i believe was his buddy) denyed all of our attempts to kick the afk(about 8 votes)
    the game ended as a lose, as expected(we conceded) at the 20 mins mark
    i already reported the afk guy.
    can i report the guy who just didn't pass the votekick?

    I am not a GM, but I'd say if it is proven that he is avoiding AFK-kick by having his mate vote no, then it would be an offense..

    but it's a very grey area tbh.. Hard to prove


    My confession and apology : I used to be a flamer

    If the person is indeed their friend then it is reportable and easy enough to prove/track down as far as the GM team is concerned

    The problem is that the player doesn't really have access to those tools that a GM can use to confirm that 2 people are indeed friends.

    This is a little confusing. The OP says he already reported the AFK player and he asks if he can report the vote-blocker. So it sounds like you are saying that the vote-blocker is reportable which according to the answer to my similar thread he isn't.

    and why exactly is this a matter or discussion? isn't not kicking afk players(that obviously won't come back) a form of greifing?
    clear this one out for me

    Sorry, i thought everything was clear from that post. Vote blocker is not reportable.
