ROTFLMFAO!

Wait, you won't answer any of the questions that I ask..... You only offer naked, baseless comments, not even arguments, just comments with no reason.... You whine about actually having to press a button every 30 seconds... Yet somehow I'm the troll?

OK...once again...please tell us your argument for how it won't take anything away from the game. I've pointed out how it would, now I'm challenging you to substantiate your position. Either explain or admit that you're just a whiny lil git and GTFO. It's up to you man.....

What's the difference between pushing a button every XX seconds and pushing a button once and be done with it?

The char isn't doing anything else anyway while YOU are doing something else in both cases.
With the current system you are simply alt-tabbing to read forums/watch porn. With a craft all option you would do something else away from the PC. In both cases, you are NOT playing the game or watching at a progress bar.
It's not like you'd get more skill-ups with a "craft all" option.
And it's not like you'd take away anything at all from the game environment if you are not watching a progress bar like a retard.

Comparing it with afk farming doesn't make ANY sense. Farming requires interaction and multiple inputs from the player. Crafting doesn't.

Seems to me like the usual "I did it the hard (lol) way, so everyone else must to the same". So why not adding the old crafting limitations and costs?


Final point: if a pathetic horrible disgrace of a MMORPG like Aion (typical korean pile of crap where farming is everything) has this option, why shouldn't DAoC (western pvp-focused mmorpg) have it?

AFK farming does not require any interaction. I could set my cabbie in the middle of a camp of non-aggro green mobs and set it on aggressive and walk away. The simmie would keep killing. No player involvement at all. The only difference between this and allowing me to craft 36 items at once is the amount of time that I could stay away from the keyboard.

Another problem that would need to be addressed is the autolog timer. If you had a craft all button, your toon would be standing still from upwards of 18 minutes. The game would log you out before your finished crafting.

Having LGMd a few times too many, I could only guess that such a feature is very far removed from anybody's radar ATM.


I actually support the argument that a craft all feature should be implemented. If DAOC was so hardcore against AFK activities, buff timers would be murdered even further.

So... I guess that means you would have to pay attention, troll.

You could do that, It would be stupid, banable and a waste of time but you could. AFK farming is illegal, so is afk crafting. I still ask for a craft all option, not for them to make it legal to afk farm, k?

 

-----signature-----

Sure! Now tell us why one should be legal in the game and the other should not. Please do not forget to include your thoughts on server economy (the cost of bandwith, not the in game finances) and all that goes into such a decision.

I await your response.

You have gotten all the response needed already. It is not my fault your troll brain cant process it.

So why are buff bots legal?
It's a char sitting there, providing tangible benefits with zero input from the user, be he/she playing another char or going afk altogether.
