AFK Button

Lol, nothing major.. But, I think it could be useful

A lot of time, there are players who are online, but not really ON line. I think it would be useful if there was an AFK button to show they are actually away from the computer

Again, nothing major, but I'd appreciate it

    They need to just log off if saying AFK in chat isn't enough.

    First of all, when you are on, nobody can see that but members of your alliance. Second, the last thing I would do is let others know that you are not at the computer. That's like shouting "Hey! If you wanted to attack me, now is the ideal time!", don't you think?

    Well, he didn't state anything about others outside the alliance being able to see the fact you are away from the keyboard.

    Doesn't seem necessary to me, I just say, "HEY NUMBNUTS, I'LL BE BACK IN 30".

    Works fine.

    Yeah, that's what I thought.

    Simple verbal communication is enough I think.

    Hey SalimL2410,

    As Eric768 stated above, this seems like a really unnecessary addition to the game, since you can rely on verbal communication to tell your Alliance members whether you are there or not.

    Regards,

    Steve.

    What about a "in the huff" button? The inability to portray my annoyance at my minions not laughing at my jokes makes the game almost unplayable at times.
    It's been a while.....

    I totally feel your pain on this one, but sadly we just have to take it. At least we made ourselves laugh, right?

    Regards,
