could I get a defintion of what this is and how long it lasts? I got hit with a AFK scripting warning for in the GM's own words "unresponsive for 6 minutes" even though I wasn't running a script, and evidently this experience inefficency thing applies and no GM's that I got a hold of through assists could explain it.

I believe Katt is right.

>>I got hit with a AFK scripting warning for in the GM's own words "unresponsive for 6 minutes" even though I wasn't running a script

Also, while the policy mentions scripting in specific, it doesn't ONLY entail that. Any form of inattentive experience or other advantageous gain is against policy. For example, going afk (with no scripts running) in combat or putting yourself in sleep mode and continuing to hunt. In the first, you would be gaining defense experience while away from the game; In the second, you would be gaining a monetary advantage (all those coins/gems/pelts/etc).

It's alright to drain pools, but you have to be careful not to be adding anything extra into them. If you need to step away your best bet is to either A) log off, or B) go somewhere out of the way, like an inn room or a house, and put yourself into sleep mode.

Having no clue about the GM or what preceded the "bathroom break," unless you used the "sleep" command you still have the potential to gain exp while AFK. We, as third hand peanut gallery, have no idea if the GM was testing you for 30 min previously while you were in combat or braiding or whatever. Contacting feedback would be an option open to you.

ok let me reiterate I was never afk....in the GM's own words I was unresponsive for 6 minutes....not scripting learning....not listening to a class,not doing anything at all other then being IG....the scenario was this....first send from GM i was at theren gate and had already started a travel script to Rossman's....second warning on the rope bridge where I was unable to respond due to mechanics of the rope bridge....third warning aftet I got off rope bridge and was in RT and also unable to respond due to mechanics....then there were FOUR fourth warnings while i was standing at Rossman's gate doing nothing

all in under 6 minutes....

so evidently....doing nothing is now AFK scripting if you have anything in your pools

<<.first send from GM i was at theren gate and had already started a travel script to Rossman's

What were you doing prior to that?

>so evidently....doing nothing is now AFK scripting if you have anything in your pools

All that is evident is that we don't have the details of why you were given a scripting warning. Like someone mentioned before, writing to feedback would be your best bet. The EMAIL verb in-game will give you a list of relevant email addresses to use to have your scripting violation explained to you.

damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I have to say the unresponsive presence is horrible today. I've been gone a number of years. After my return I find that the number of unresponsive people is embarrassing. Just now I was walking along and saw something on the ground I wanted. The player in the room was completely unresponsive, so I took it.

I log out if I'm going to be gone even a couple minutes. But that's me.

> Travel scripts ... will not get you an long term experience scripting violation.

I recline corrected.

>>I reviewed your records since it came up JARRETTJ26 and your situation was not entirely as you describe.

My monocle just popped off in surprise.

To the original poster, you seem to have changed your story throughout these interchanges. Though I am not a SIMU employee/employer, nor in any way a staff member, here is my opinion:

That's awfully fishy.

To the person who said people are being awfully unresponsive, yes true. Join the club that think this is wrong, and start making more events and attending more events, and get away from the Script-o-holics club. I think I want to make a Non-official group known as:

"Da da da daum."

"Pause for affect."

"Script-o-holics Anonymous."
