The use of auto-fight still works, but all it means is you are not manually "walking" your hero to the Boss every time. The OKAY button is to let you know how your fight went, and categorizes it for you, gives you an option to replay. Well, we don't need this for banish because we KNOW we lose every fight, that is not the point of banish. It is a group event. It has nothing to do with whether or not you work, or sit and play... but having to click at the end of every fight slows it down enough that it will totally change the speed at which the Boss will die, how much participation there is. Obviously some play from work- this is NOT to avoid working, it is because it is a necessary part of daily activities on the game and is only provided twice daily, which in most timezones is during normal work hours.

Use some common sense with this. This is not a debate of who does what during their day, but players are trying to maximize their game. Meet the assistant, and get the rewards. A player should not be penalized for having a life.
