Why are there so many afk killers standing in one place doing nothing?
I feel like 30% of all those killers I see are running afk bot software because they don't move, don't chase, do nothing at all. And there is like nothing you can do. Saying "finish the match and move on" is a sh*t move too because most players burn bloodpoint offerings to increase the value of the match throught specific actions like Altruism for example, or Boldness, but you simply can't do that and when you face these killers like in every 3-4 match on a regular basis.
Doesn't matter if they have perks or don't have any, it feels like this game turned into an afk bot simulator.

All you can do about those is to report (even though nothing actually happens with reports anyway).
They also make you depip most of the time.

Afk and bots are 2 different things.
Oh and you won't depip from that.

Depip? That's bs! Red rank survivors easily pip with a afk killer.

I play survivor everyday, more than anyone should, and I have only seen one afk killer in the last month. Where are they all at, all I am getting is Spirit- The Mistress of Tunneling.
I am happy that the constant stream of Sir Fredrick's has ceased. It was so brutal.

I'm at red ranks and that isn't true.

Then you are also afk.
You get 2 Iridescent emblems because uninjured and light bringer.
Find the killer and get a chase. Ez pip.
If the killer is afk Wraith you'll end up with black pip. But never depip.

Oh than the countless times i piped on red ranks against afk killers must have been a visual bug.
No healing, no injuries, no hooks. But plenty of "escapes" got me always a pip.

I call them Santa Killers. Some of them are doing it out of some weird sense of generosity. Some of them don't like the map or real life literally took them AFK and they don't want to disconnect and register a ban. Sometimes they are Venus Flytraps, i.e. acting like they are Santa Killers and working to juice up in some way. Never trust a Myers that just stands there. There is a good chance they have a the Fragrant Tuft of hair and are just waiting for you to charge him up to infinite Tier-3. Combined with Blood Warden and a few other end game Perks this is hilarious to do... once... but overall tedious.
I don't tend to report them because the Survivors "can" earn a bunch of free points, stay as little or as long as they want, and it is really only the Killer that loses out. I don't report the Venus Flytraps because that is a valid, if hilariously weird strategy.

If he has a TR, you can run around him and farm chase points. Break it off and get escape points.
If you keep switching with other survivors running around him you can get distraction points.
But, idk, I guess some players just want ez games.
Ofcourse, he could have suddenly had to take a #########.

If a killer is AFK you can pip very easily. you just have to do more then fix gens.

The problem of this topic is not ranking up because I don't care about it until they add some real rewards for reaching certain rank, but the removal of antifun and the purpose of trying to play this game with so many afkers.

If other people have done totems, the killer has no terror radius, what are you supposed to do? you wont pip. A lot of afk killers are wraiths.
