Scenario Leeching

Ahoy
after encounters with people who spend their time in scenario without contributing entirely, despite being present - good old fashioned leeching.
Is this considered an bannable offense? I'm curious if there's any point to provide proof.
Thanks ;>

Guess it depends on the Dev/GM? i saw in an ollder thread someone like Geni or Aza maybe making a statement akin to it being warn-able/ban-able

Maybe the afk/leaver debuff from live?
After 90 seconds in the spawn you get kicked out of the sc + debuff.

Would promote people to get their butts into gear and form groups!

to many people in this game give up easily and sit at spawn or log out to leave the SC.

well just standing AFK in a SC is not okay but as we are very strict with rules we pretty much want to catch them in the act

Yep had one this morning complaining after the first wipe and just complained the whole SC, they were a dps and then thanked everyone for nothing at the end because we had a score less then 100. Had they actually tried to get a few more kills instead of crying about it in the spawn we might of broken 100 points and got a small reward.

it annoys me big time honestly, the times I get to play, SC's can take 20 to 30 min to pop.. last thing I want is to be practically alone charging into 2 full groups against our maybe 1 and a half because people are AFK or leaving.
I kind of expect it in SOlo queues but I get super pissed when im in a premade and any of the members do that. Things not going the way they want, instead of dieing a few times they will just leave or afk it. Literally wasting my time when that happens.

Well, I won't lie. I've "AFKed" before but not to leech. Pretty sure everyone has done it for one reason or another. Sometimes the match is just pointless- 8v12- pug v premade- spawn camp- late to join and the score is 0 vs 300-400 vs 0
I'm not a quitter, I'm a realist.
Might as well go bio- get some water- plan a new build- etc.
