AFK Plugin

I propose adding some kind of way for people to know when someone's AFK. They can activate it with /afk or by standing still 5 minutes and deactivate it automatically when they move or type something in public chat. A message would appear in chat that the player is afk, and an [AFK] tag would be applied next to their name tags and in the player list.

If you wanna prevent spam, it could work like with the /world list, as in, people would have to write /afklist subscribe or something like that to see the messages, but could still see the [AFK] tag.

I think this could be useful to avoid wasting time trying to reach out to people who are AFK

this seems like an invasion of privacy, i sometimes don't want people to be able to know if i'm afk or not, even if you could opt out of that i think the [AFK] tag would make the tab list look kind of cluttered and ugly.

How about it only shows up when someone tries to PM you and only if you manually typed /afk. It would also be cool if you could put in a string after afk like:

/afk 'be back at 2pm'

so for someone who tried to PM you they'd get a reply like

-->clipchip hey clip i found you a date you can stop jacking off now
<--clipchip [AFK since 12:05 with message 'brb playing with my dick']

I'm cool with a manual command you type on your own at your leisure, but the idea of it being enabled/disabled based on movement is one I'm less cool with, especially when I'm pretending to be AFK but I'm secretly wandering around the Vault...

hmmmmm

Anyway, i guess it's fair to make it completely manual

Same, I'm for it if it's completely manual.
