This has happened to me so many times lately and it's just sad and frustrating. I have a handicapped bro to take care of and he often needs me to pass him a drink etc.
I understand Raid/Dungeon kicks since it's not rly a good idea to go afk mid boss fight, but when you play an island expedition on heroic diff or other less relevant stuff and do more than others in your group, just to get kicked cuz you said ''brb'' and went afk for 15 bloody seconds is very frustrating and is ruining the game for me. This didnt happen before when ppl actually had to talk to get some group content done, now its just solo group and noone cares about anyone, it feels like WoW has become a solo multiplayer game. I honestly dont know what to do about these random kicks from ppl that dont read the chat or think that being afk for 15 seconds in an already won island expedition deserves a death penalty...
don't say brb, just do it and blame a lag spike when you come back.
if you brb 10-15 seconds u dont have to say brb really

Sadly it happens weather i say it or not cuz they see me standing there in 1 place and go ''oh look at this leech'' dunno if theres a way to report these kind of crime against morale? :P Does this happen to everyone?
Dont say "brb"? Its a fairly easy fix, most people wont notice if youre stood still for 15 seconds as you claim.
If its more than you say it is, then tough luck to you.

Use me as the dislike button
This could sound rude but you cant expect that unknow people wait for you, they are there to do it and in most of the time they want do it as quick possible, in your point of view they are ruining your game but u are doing the same to them.
If you have some particular needs please make your own group or go with friends.

Look out boys, we got an internet badass over here.
No surprise you're from Kazzak, gotta keep that toxic vibe alive eh?

I don't have it. I have kids and two crazy kittens atm, so I have to run those emergency afk's once in a while. They last for seconds, but nobody seems to notice it. I try to be clever with the timing though, so it doesn't become that obvious(e.g. like when my character is eating). Not all quick afk's work like that(like when my cats made a huge plant fall over, rolling towards the edge of the table... but yeah, with most things I can plan it shortly ahead)

1. You are a teenager still living at home
2. You are an adult, either living alone, or with a partner/friends who stay away from you when you are playing.
99% certain I'm right, sorry.

why the need to be so horrible?
That sucks, I usually wait several minutes if someone goes afk or offline, even when they don't say something, before I would kick them or vote yes.
But the problem is also that there are actually a lot of leechers around and people start to expect it. I once had a guy who hid up on a wall afk in a warfront thinking we wouldn't see him. I don't even know how he got up there, that's some effort put into leeching!

People are !@#$%^-s, like this guy. Your best bet is queuing with a friend, that way you can't get kicked and you can enjoy your island expedition. There's always going to be kids or immature adults who live with their parents and are oblivious to struggles of other people, thinking everyone can play undisturbed.
Good, you deserved to be kicked because when you afk usually aren't the only one that afks, which, holds the rest of the group behind. People need to understand that queuing for something others expect you to play and if everyone had that relaxed mentality no group would be moving.
A perfect example is battlegrounds. A large majority of the time when people afk or don't join and leave you a man down for 2-3 minutes can easily lose you the entire battleground which has happened to me many times. I think there should be harsher punishments for afkers in any scenario as it ruins it for the majority of players who are ready to play.
Also don't lie with 10-15 secs being afk then getting kicked. That's total b***** there is a 2 minute kick wait time before you can kick after you join a group.

your real life issues or situation have absolutely no effect on anyone else and of no interest to anyone else. Don't blame that on your kick, it is utterly irrelevant.
There are so many people that afk and it has made people very annoyed, so when you announce youre going afk without saying "for 10 secs" (personally, I wouldn't have even said that, you just highlighted that you were going afk) then people assume youre a leech and kicked you. No one would notice or even care if you were afk for 15 seconds.
Id have kicked you too, if I were in a slightly bad mood or just had a bad experience with a true afker, which you aren't .... you made the mistake, you paid for it.

he didn't say he was kicked at the start, so there is no basis for the posting being bull****
Do you warn your groups beforehand or do you just drop off?05/11/2018 06:52Posted by CvekonjaI have a handicapped bro to take care of and he often needs me to pass him a drink etc.
Not to be a dick but people can't smell that
avoid afking with short messages, try to explain why you are afk and you are less likely to get kicked.
keep in mind some people won't actually know what the abbreviations are so brb could mean anything
