    AFK active mode

    When I see so many people afk in town just standing there i kinda feel like Im in the twilight zone or something were time stops and your the only one moving. I was thinking it would be nice if you could select from a list an AFK mode like pacing walking in circles whistling, anything but standing like a statue. After selecting your afk mode it would automatically start working after 10 seconds or so of inactivity from the player.


    I want my character to pace back and fourth all mad like the the NPC Wracwulf in uldah, or whatever his name is.

    edit: it would actually be nice to earn these on side quest or something.

    I think AION had something similar.

    But anyway, I want/have/need this. I think it's a great idea.

    Aion went a step forward with it tho if you in water your char try to get a fish. If the area is hot your char would try to cool himself off by using his hand as a fan i think this would be cool if added in ffxiv.

    But only see this happening in 2.0 lol

    yea, would obsly be a 2.0 thing, if ever. id love to have options to pick from like emotes but anything would be better then nothing. Just seems like when you go into town more people are afk then moving. I wouldn't even mind if they made all afk people just disappear til they hit a key,lol.

    Characters really should sway or move like the retainers do when standing still.

    An on/off toggle for this feature would make it so people who like it can use it, and those who don't won't.

    that's why i think there should be options like a more subtle movement for people who don't want a more active motion.

    i wouldn't mind a toggle either though

    I think that is a good idea. Not only in towns but I think they should do this outside them as well. Like when it rains your character will react to the weather.

    Gath wants to hold a Galka above his head when it rains.

    Gath's 1 gil is worth more than your 1 gil.

    The day that happens will be the day when your gil is actually worth more than mine. Good luck.
