Farming for the Hopscotch Pilgrim has been rather arduous. But I still keep going Strike after Strike.
More frustrating than not seeing it drop is the ever numerous afker's I encounter frequently.
Whether they sit near the beginning, or simply follow along, crouching before each checkpoint. Symptoms include 0 kills, 0 assists, and 0 deaths. Imagine how I feel having 200+ kills for one strike, only to receive a rare engram and a rare item as they receive a legendary item.
I have followed the proper channels of reporting players for being unhelpful/quitting. But after two afker's tonight, in separate strikes, the following questions came to mind:
1. Are these reports actually doing anything?
2. Is the only player paying a price me, with my time?
3. Am I really just carrying these individuals to gear/rep they didn't earn with zero consequences?
For the first time tonight, I messaged one of them. Attached is a link to our short conversation (name retracted), I was not rude, just curious. Why did he do this? He told me. [url=http://i.imgur.com/it8oCp9.png]The Conversation[/url]
Now I would like to have a conversation with you Bungie. Are you okay with this? Are there consequences? Or is my reporting in vain, and my time wasted ignored?
Thank you for your time,

Step 1: Push there body near a cliff Step 2: equip fast Rez helmet Step 3: repeatedly push them to their deaths Step 4: laugh at there 1000s of deaths before they even move. Step 5: admire their 0.0001 KD Step 6: report them for inactivity

Is send them a friendly message "your a bitch bro" he reply some nonsense , I then tell them to prove how good they are, and then they start playing . Another way is to go to darkness zones and keep dying until they do something or leave

I run into afk/unhelpful players constantly in strikes too so I know the feeling. On a side note though I have gotten 3 hopscotch pilgrims from doing lvl28 PoE while working on an elder cipher. Not from the chest, just the reward from finishing. Just putting it out there so maybe you have another option.

I've just started reporting everything that irks me even in the slightest. I'll report everyone haha : whiners, cheaters, absentees, shit I've even reported guys for standing in front of me when I'm firing off rockets. I'm sure it's not a very effective way of handling it but I feel better after.

Sparrow slam the shit out of them. If they went to use the restroom or go pet their little kitty, hopefully they are dead long enough for them to get kicked.

Any one goes afk leave, if they are hiding leave. If the other player that is still playing wants to do the strike for the lazy pri- ks let them do so.

Presumably Bungie must get thousands of reports even week, many of which are from sore losers with an axe to grind with players better than they are. I'm guessing there has to be a certain number of complaints about the same player before they will act.

This have to be noticed by Bungie! I agree with you it's really a dickish behavior and shouldn't be tolerated!

Maybe his gamertag might tell you why he is afk.
