On some maps, people spawn in totems or OP monsters and then go AFK to farm experience in a spot where no monsters can get them, which for other people who don't farm would take them ages to earn.

Could you add some kind of idle kicker after a certain amount of time would kick people for being AFK?

It is used on the Race/assault server so why not on this server?

Farmers = facepalm

That's exploiting. Effectively 'botting' by having something play for them while they are not at their computer.

Provide proof of this in action and they'll get banned / exp removed.

Maybe you should loose experience if you are in the same spot all the time. Once I was AFK cause I went to eat, but I did not notice if I earned points with it... how you earn experience and points being AFK? Unless you have a bot play for you... but then you may not answer in the chat....

I honestly don't believe it's as big an issue as is being made out. The Invasion server isn't exactly full most of the time, anyone doing this for a sustained period would stand out and I'm not seeing this.
