Staying AFK throughout a match ruins the experience of other users, and Krafton has a stringent policy against it. The Rules of Conduct on the official website states the following about staying AFK or idling:
“Penalties may be imposed on players who go AFK while in a match. Being AFK can place your teammates at a disadvantage or otherwise undermine the gameplay experience. Players who AFK repeatedly to earn points or other account-related progression or rewards will be penalized with all account progression and items removed.”
Player IDs may also face a permanent ban in this scenario.
