How about the ability to have a chat message that has a customizable chat afk message like I am scanning forums please be patient if I don't respond right away as an autoreply so that they know that I am not ignoreing them if I am alt-tabbed out.

why not just an afk symbol on your portrait?

Well, If afk that might discourage others from contacting me, unless it has a comment that I am doing X, with no AFK ability I am saying I am online and available for chat, as fas asI can tell
Is there a way to set myself to private or not available for chat, like IM, so that if I need to get on for a few minutes and don't have time to chat, or need to do a mission and can't easily chat while doing it, that I can let others know that I don't want to or can't chat. Or an RP reason, can't be in contacted for various reasons, for some period of time. If not it might be an interesting way to do chat and it might make sense for various reasons IC

This wouldnt be bad, just need something to tell people that "The lights on, but no ones home atm"

I'd like to see this enabled on for Corp, Private, and Game chats. It would also be useful to be able to indicate the Eve time that I expect to return. AFK 23:49 or some such plaster over my character portrait.

This would be a great option... I frequently have the chat window minimized so I can see what is going on around the ship, but miss when someone tries to message me. Would be awesome if it would just mark me as "auto away" when it's minimized! |

Bad Idea - It's nobody's business that i'm AFK in 0.4 systems. The AFK symbol would add a tiny bit of strain to the chat queues, If you popped a lot of portraits that is. If someone's AFK they just won't accept your message. AFK is for ground based games to explain why your guy is running through his "i'm bored" animation over and over. If a ground game is added in the future, revoke any ideas of AFK status for it.

Make it optional, so we can turn it off when we dont want hostiles to know about our status but can make sure corpies and locals know you're not there when doing something else with a toon hovering in empire.

Simply for convenience and, as mentioned above, so other corp/alliance mates know you're not simply ignoring. But not something that should be put ahead of anything else, imo.

Wander Lost: nobody will know you're afk in a 0.4 system if you don't manually put up the /afk tag... I would never want a feature like this to be mandatory, but it would certainly be nice, especially seeing as so many of my corp mates like to sign on and go AFK for hours at a time.

AFK is much needed. Especially when I'm off doing something else during a massive jump and get a 'Request for Conversation' message when I'm not there. The originator must think I'm snubbing them or something. Which I'm not- I'm just peeing! ;)

I think the original context of this post was for non-public channels, non-npc corp, alliance, gang, and private chats, not local, constellation, etc. channels.
That's a fairly good idea, but not really something that should be focused on (so many other things to take care of). |

Seems like something easy to implement and a lot easier to play the game in general, its based on player interaction after all.

Contentious, but a 10/20/30 minute idle disconnect would solve this and many many more problems - such as AFK cloaking. Nothing stopping a pilot sitting at the keyboard cloaked, but it would prevent idling and perhaps even reduce load.
Obviously, this wouldn't affect autopiloting AFK, if you're foolhardy enough to do this.

AFK indicator on portrait would be a good idea.

EVE is not IRC, but that still fits pretty well for what I think about public away messages. A symbol or so is fine though. But no chat messages

I Love it! An AFK icon or auto reply "I am away from my keyboard. feel free to suicide gank me!"
I love it to death. Can we have this soon? Be great to know which haulers are afk so I do not have to worry about them escaping when I suicide gank them.

But I play Eve because Eve is the best game for not paying attention :) It has autopilot, offline skill training and 3 month long market orders. Its the only MMORPG game where I can be online for 5 hours, play 20 minutes in that total and do more then someone playing and paying attention for 8 hours a day including weekends. If I plan better that is. Do not cry for nerfing someones perfect game just because you get unfair real life advantage of having more time to stare at the screen.
