That’s not high at all 30 silver every 15 minutes. Maybe for pro cheater with 10 alt accounts who Q all the same time.

 

Maybe if anet can look into those like 10 act one IP every normal player will not play pvp to get rich

Just give some dishonor towards players that do not make any movement at any point in the match for 30 seconds or less.

 

Or less experience from winning towards MMR Rating.

While things should definitely be done for [intentional AFKs](https://i.imgur.com/HYXvJwe.jpg "intentional AFKs"), (a lot of comeback matches stem from the losing team not giving up and keep trying to solve the matchups), I don't think community-based judgement + punishment is the way to go, because the community is a spectrum in terms of demeanor and this makes the boundary of deciding on an AFK report an ever expanding one. If number of times reported is the only factor, there are a lot of ways to troll the system and make everyone miserable.

 

Instead of punishment for the incompetent, motivation for the competent is more efficient in my opinion. The former will be like trampling the weeds in your garden - there's always more, but the latter will become a self-correcting process.

That is how PvP is handled in other games like WoW right? The winner gets significant rewards, losers basically get nothing.
