Title: AFK Time
Post by: mike254 on June 17, 2009, 11:10:25 AM

Sometimes when I'm in the tower, something comes up and I need to get off the computer for a while. Usually if I'm staying home, I won't log off Aces High.

The wish is that after about 30 min of no activity (moving the mouse or clicking on something), you would be marked as AFK so that people wouldn't be trying to talk to you while your gone. Also, when I get back I always forget to uncheck AFK and people still think I'm gone. When you are active again AFK should automatically be unchecked. If someone wants to play and still be marked AFK for whatever reason, I guess there could be an option for this feature.

Sometimes I do this, just so no one talks to me.  :)

Actually, I think a better wish would be to kick you out of the arena back into the lobby.  But, that wish has been debated from both sides ad nauseum.

It's a great idea.  What is the counter argument?
