Request for funtion: AFK
Hi,
Since I started playing SL in chrome instead of on my mobile, I am confronted to a little problem:
I often do 2 things at the same time (work and auctions in SL) - meaning during the day I am AFK most of the time with a hop on hop off of 5 minutes every hour or so.
During this time, many friends and guildies talk to me, not realising that I am AFK.
I would love to see the possibility appear in SL to inform people i'm AFK -
It could be some "status flag" or "a -afk" mention in the nick.
It could be autoset after 5 minutes of inactivity or by checking a box.
At first glance, only a small part of SL gamers are directly concerned by this matter (as I never AFK'ed when I was playing on my mobile), however if you consider the time they loose talking to AFK "Chromers", this function would benefit phone users too.

Yup, pretty standard MMO fare these days. Thanks for taking the time to post the suggestion!

Nice! I never thought about how convenient this would be:) lol, what happens if you use the AFK button on a pvp map? I think it would be interesting either way: can be killed vs can't be killed:) interested in seeing what others think.

I like the idea. Perhaps "/afk" could make you hold a flag that says "AFK" or something
-
^^ yea a flag that you buy for 1k maybe or 5 platinum
-
Perhaps it could be available to all players in the game? It could have its own page in the options, and have features such as:
• how long till your automaticly afk
• can set an auto reply for when ur messaged while afk
• on/off toggle
