Attacking Monsters with an Avatar While Being AFK
 
Recently, we have confirmed an issue wherein players in Grauberg (S) will leave their summoned avatars out while they’re AFK and let the avatars attack monsters by using the auto-counter attack system. Also, we have confirmed that these players have gained experience points and items through this act.

Not only does this act upset the game balance, it may interrupt the game play of other players. Any players caught performing the act by a Game Master (GM) may see disciplinary action taken against their accounts. Therefore, we ask that you please refrain yourself from performing this act.

Please be advised that a GM may request assistance from you if they determine that your actions may be causing a disruption in the game balance. If you received instructions from a GM, we ask that you follow them immediately. If you do not follow the instructions, as stated previously, the GM will take action against your account.

If you encounter a player performing this act, please do not hesitate to report them to the Special Task Force via the URL listed below. The Special Task Force and the GMs will work together to investigate the matter accordingly.

?SQUARE ENIX Support Center <--do they not know who they are or something?

[Report to Special Task Force]

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in this matter

More smoke and mirrors to make it look like they can justify the dev teams paychecks.
CoP rings? uhh uhh legion jukebox!

Salvage overhaul? uhhhh STF in grauberg!!

We're totally accomplishing things guys!

Lol i dunno. It seems like we get a bone tossed to use every week on the news board. If it isnt something anyone gives a *** and a half about then it goes into test server that month. If it's something everyone wants it's dusted under the rug until you forget about it.

I don't get it. What's the typo? If you mean the question mark, that's actually the fault of the person who copy-pasted the story from the SE website. In the real story it's a bullet.

Hey, no matter how small of a problem it is, I'm glad to see something like this at least being recognized. Is it the exact fix to the game that I desperately want and now I'm angry and gonna whine about it? Nope, but that's ok.
