AFK Button

[Jericho]

Dunno if this has been suggested, but I was just thinkin... wouldn't it be nice to know whos AFK?

I hate loggin on with 4 people online... and thinkin "Hey people are on why not just stay", when they are all AFK, ( I find out after 5 mins of no answering "hi")

I think this would work kinda like the auto decline, only difference is it would auto kickon after say, 30 seconds of not doing anything (no moving, no talking no clicking detailed stats or anything), hence being AFK. And it could either put the peoples names in Italics/Bold/(AFK) after their name. I dunno, also there could be a button (next to auto decline if you will), which is called "Set AFK" and it would auto put you into AFK mode.

Now AFK wouldn't do anything other than show everyone else that your AFK. Once you move, click, talk, or anything of that nature, it'd go away.


Input?

I actually like this idea. Would be nice to know who is supposedly at the PC and who isn't so you know your not talking to thin air.

I used to get kicked for being afk by Shiris

Well then, this will just make it easier =P

[Hrothgar]

why  not just add a chat command instead of making it complicated.. but then you get into problems with lag and people not seeing the little afk thing..... so theres a problem in its self

[Jericho]

Not really, people not seeing it, oh well. As it doesnt do anything important sept tell they are afk.

[Hrothgar]

so its an unneeded feature just like a clock....

[Jericho]

yes, but a feature none the less

[Jon_Deciple]

An afk button has been suggested before.... i think.... but not implimented mainly because Jouser has minimal time and as of late has been playing hookie.

If/when he shows signs of life and after the exp issue is fixed it will be added to the list

 (basically im saying dont hold your breath)

just makin suggestions
