I really liked the fact that the afk toggle was made automatic after a period of no activity, because if I left the keyboard for longer than I had planned I didn't have to worry about going back and toggling afk. Also, if I got the AFK response to a tell, I knew that someone really WAS afk. I also liked the fact that I could have a carriage return tic timer to keep me connected meantime, and afk would stay toggled on.
Lately though I have found that if I'm away from the keyboard for as much as a half hour, I come back and I'm not toggled afk. If even a carriage return tic timer will keep afk from toggling on, it seems kind of pointless, because about a minute after afk toggles on you will void.
Has anyone else noticed this change? Is anyone else frustrated at not being able to toggle afk when you are afk?
afk toggle
AFK toggle NEEDS to be in. But I did always hate how people would keep it on constantly. It needs to be made so that if you do things like "assist soandso" or move any direction, things like that it will toggle off. It does get extremely frustrating to have to put up with irate players thinking you are ignoring them when you were just simply AFK. For people like me who mud from home with kids.. its hard to be at the keyboard even 60% of the time.
Please, please implement this change?

I think this showed up in another thread and apparently received no constructive attention. I too love the new changes to AFK, but what's the point if you go %% like one minute after?
Suggestion: Please increase the amount of time a player can be idle so that you don't void after 5 minutes of inactivity (or whatever it is now) I'm sure it can be agreed by a good portion of the playerbase (over 50%) that the current time is too short.
I don't think this is an unreasonable request.
Thank you, drive through.

If you do make it togglable(yes, please!!!), please make the idle timeout 30 minutes or so. 15 at minimum. Since you're really afk... I don't wanna come back after taking a restroom break and find I went ld after 3 minutes of inactivity.
