Title: Idling
Post by: Gunshot on July 06, 2012, 11:44:13 am
It would be cool if somebody started that trend in other cities such as Vault City  ;D

It would make Fonline more versatile and more interactive IMO.

Then Again I guess the low amount of people playing this game can't make that happen.

Well I always thought the low amount of people was due to:Horible advertisement and due to players acting like jerks to newbies.

afk idling in public places is very ugly in my opinion.. although we haven't many rare items to do the same posing, ncr and such places always reminds me of dalaran in wow. yeah, i really played this piece of shit game.

Theres nothing wrong with afk idling, this is how the whole thing started, one legendary idler logged into ncr and left his computer on while he afked, and every few hours checked in to see if his friends were there to talk to. But now there is actually people that will stand in ncr while playing for hours/days/weeks/months/years and do nothing and experience less than 1% of the game.

Was his name Billy Bob the guy who was always at the upper barrel in ncr?

No it was Larry Rotgut, from times before nubs like Billy Bob and before his name got stolen.
