Honestly, if you don't fix afks soon, I am out, along with all the money I spend on this game. Your response so far is a joke. If a tank doesn't move all game, shut down that player for an hour. If a player doesn't move all game twice in a day. Shut that player down for a day. If he gets three full afks in a week, no movement whatsoever, shut that player down for a week. It's that simple, I'm tired of it.

Honestly, if there weren't rules against it, my post would be a whole lot more salty. Now man up and fix it.

Honestly, they affect both sides of the teams.  I'm sure you've had your fair share lf good wins because of enemy AFKs as well.

just because an enemy is afk does not mean I'm having fun winning. I like having a challenge and when 90% of my games are a steamroll one way or the other it gets annoying.

Irrelevant of the argument of weather or not what you propose is a good idea, it will still never happen, WoT PC has not implemented this therefore WoT Blitz won't either. Simple as that.

Wonder what happened with the Asia data for dealing with AFKs.

Maybe you should decrease credit income for AFKs or immediately destroy them after a minute...or allow teamkill 

Panzer Vor!

I still favor developing a way to punish afks in real life.

I sometimes go AFK when my game keeps crashing, but when I'm back in-game, I will do a lot of damage. Although if a person that is driving their tank and is AFK for the whole game, they get no credits and XP (Base XP, Free XP, and Crew XP). Besides, AFK people I go for last, they don't do much harm at all when they're AFK.

It's the worst when a player acts like they're afk, only to move when fired on (usually when they're the last tank left on a given team). I don't understand this "tactic," but we've all seen it happen. What's to be gained by idling. Presumably, if the opposing team didn't search the idler out, the game would end with base capture. If it were a valid tactic, I'd grudgingly give it a nod...but it's not. It would certainly be nice if there were some sort of "disincentive" for such vapid game-play.

And oh-by-the-way, I've gone afk because of bad wifi, important phone calls, or the dog barfing.
