Please allow me to change your opinion.
Where is the best place to go AFK?
Is it in the warpgate where you get a steady stream of resources?
Or
Is it hidden away in a crevice of a base that's on the front lines that will net you not only the steady stream of resources but also the points from when the base flips?
Let me give you a hint: It's the base.
The bit about being safe in warpgate isn't a good argument because there are people, like you, who are angry at AFKs and will TK them if they find them. Tech plants have some amazing spots where you can stuff yourself and never have to worry about being killed.
Sanctuaries won't stop people AFKing. You stop AFKing by setting up programs that look for it which they are already doing and have talked about.
