    Default AFK Emote/Sleeping Emote

    So, I just realized since many people complain that I'm AFK all the time. Why not come up with an emote and status for that?

    On the friends list, it could say, AFK/Sleeping, if the character is logged on but has a period of inactivity (15 minutes or more). One could also turn it on manually.

    I'm normally AFK in townes, so when people ask questions, I don't usually answer them. The AFK/Sleeping Emote would tip them off, and for those on my friends list, it could say next to my name, "AFK/Sleeping".

    Suggestions or Feedback anybody, Constructive Criticism only, please and thank you! .

    Just to clarify, would this be as simple as a permanent sleep yawn emote, or something more complex.

    And +1

    Something like that. But on the friends list, the developers would have to figure out a viable way to display one's AFK-ness as well.

    Or just a busy status like you see in games but next to your name and on friend lists where if you're inactive over a minute It shows your busy basically same thing lol. Nice idea would be useful no doubt.

    Default about the afk idea..

    I got a suggestion for the AFK thing to fit in friends list: just make the little box that has eaxh friend's name, and current location and just make the box bigger so AFK would be under the person's name (example)
    (picture here) (Avatar name)
    (picture here) AFK/sleeping
    (current location---------------)
    (message)(join)(remove)

    Now whenever I'm AFK, I just use the title "Do Not Disturb".

    i have an idea how the AFK emote can look like: It would be cool, if the character can sit on the ground while it is sleeping
