I always wondered if it was against the rules to be leveling while AFK but not by your own actions
For example, i grouped with a guy in highkeep who said he cant wait till he's 34 so he can join a group with his levelv50 friend who farms hill giants because he will afk in hide on top of mountain while he works soaking up the xp wasted on his friend and I thought it was a legit idea but now I'm not sure.

3. You may not kill NPC's while you are not at your PC.
It is against the rules to "afk camp" any NPC or groups of NPC's by placing a pet nearby and letting it kill while you are away from your computer. Any other form of "afk camping", such as faction killing, is also against the rules, and you may be subject to disciplinary action.

There's some ambiguity there, but per that last sentence it
seems likely to be against the rules.
However, even if it is, there's a "letter of the law vs. practice" issue here. While in theory it might be against the rules ... what are the odds that when you do this someone else (not in your group) sees you doing it, realizes that you are "AFK camping" (vs. just taking an AFK break) and actually bothers to petition? Because until someone gets a GM to come look at you, you could be violating 20 server rules at once and it won't matter.
