That's some fucked up shit. Since anyone else's level doesn't affect me, I don't care if they AFK levelled or not. I find it funny how PLing someone or paying to get PL'ed is perfectly fine. To me it's the same principal....you are not earning the levels or playing the content. Don't tell me it's cuz you have a 50 or several already so that makes it ok. What is ok would be to twink out your noob cuz your 50 can get the uber gear but then to level him up.... I don't know...I'm not against PLing either just citing it as an example, you're getting levels without really having to fight or earn them. How is this any different than AFK levelling? If Uthgaard catches you doing it, you might find yourself in another zone in a land far far away getting nuked, so yes AFK levellers are taking more risk than a PLed player did in some aspects.
This was a long time ago. This is nothing like PLing. This is afk exploiting.

No one was punished but the exploiter, and rightfully so.

The rest of us have to work to level, why should someone be able to go to sleep at a spawnpoint and get the benefit while most people and classes cannot?
