AFK comment .. can I have it.. Suggestion

i think it would be a good idea if they implement it with a bunch of presets, running through town and seeing afk ppl sort of like NPCs with things to say is more lively than a bunch of ppl sitting doing nothing.

Presets! Brilliant!

Presets! Brilliant!

Agreed

This is a great idea, I think, though just using a preset message would be best, given what people would do with it if they could put what they want. ^^;;

This would be a neat little feature.

This would have been exceedingly convenient during the time that personal bazaars still existed. They people could announce what they were selling. Personal bazaars only didn't work because no one wanted to randomly check people and HOPE they were selling something they needed.

Ragnarok Online actually let you open an afk chat.
Whatever you put as the title it would pop up above your head like a chat bubble.

People we're allowed to come inside (depending on the number of users permitted inside the chat and if there is a password required to get inside) and leave messages for you when you get back. I found actually really convenient.




If they do decide to add this. Lets hope it won't look like anything in the above picture. Most of those are merchants trying to sell wares but you get the point!

With the above picture in mind, maybe the Away message can only pop up if you target a player or get really close to them.

Yeah. It would be better like that.
Last thing I want is to walk into Ul'dah seeing tons of chat bubbles covering my screen. lol
