AFK Mode
 

I think POTCO should have an afk mode.

Click the afk button and you cannot move, attack, be attacked, be attuned by another player.

EDIT: The new official AFK mode is /sleep. Girls may also check their nails, and guys may also flip a coin to signal AFK.

Usually I go in water and press ".afk" It leaves a bubble saying "afk" and doesn't go away and I don't get attcked.

LOL, I ended up in jail doin that last night. Mustve been eaten by the sea monster i've heard so much about!!

This is great - for the Adults... but none of the underagers see it...

So I have AFK on my head and I still get 20 trying to friend me because they do not see bubble messages...

They REALLY need a ICQ / Mesenger Chat interface for status (Online / Away / Offline (for thos times you want to be alone) Busy) if for nothing else I don't get 'pecked apart by gulls' on the Port Royal Beach LOL

(see Nemo Post for the reference to th Gulls... ;) )

Invisimode would be cool too.

I just go into a small building or something and use a thought bubble with the words "afk".

hmm i have been waiting for almost 2 years now for this feature on vmk lol :laughks2: i think potco needs a turn off friend request option like vmk

Afk mode is useless. just log off, lol. Or go to a place w/ no enemies and type ".Afk".

POTCO can be made similar to VMK in the features way. But please, PLEASE keep POF different from VMK in everything else, especially the waiting for updates!

I would love to have an afk button. I was thinking the sleep mode will work, but enemies can still attack. But it's better than nothing. :)

:laughks2::laughks2:and in sleep mode u do what pull a pillow from ur pocket and lie down on the floor and sleep ?? lol the only problem i have with afk mode is the fact that u walk around and like everyone is afk O_o and since there pirate is still online that pirate is still taking equal room in the server which causes more lag plus potco will be filled with zombies or in roses case full of sleepy pirates

With the new emotes coming, there is a sleep. Your pirate just stands and sleeps. Kinda like AFK. DOnt know for how long though.

oh cool but ill be afk in the meantime waiting for the sleep emote to come lol :laughks2: and i dont know about u but i know nobody who sleep standing up O_o

EDIT: 925 post i do believe we have a new top poster (knowing rose it wont be me for long :pop also a good thing neoteny doesnt post here either)

I would like an afk but, i wouldnt like them not being able not to be attacked, simply because maybe in the future youd see alot of afk pirates in heavily enemy infested areas, would look silly and cause quite some lag for the slower comps maybe?

but i would really be interested in an invisible mode so I can be alone when I choose, but still interact with a couple friends id like to talk with (yes I do sometimes just sit and converse with a few of them, and having the rest of my friends tp to me and stand around while im standing around talking, is sort on inconvenient for all.

I will type a .afk when Im going afk in a habitated place. It will keep the invites down to a few hundred. The . will keep the message up there until I type something else. If I need to do some real life stuff quickly.. it works like a charm.
