There's nothing more annoying than waiting for someone that's AFK in a battle. You have to sit there and wait for the timer to run down, just to end with them passing. Sooo me and my brother were thinking about it and we came up with an AFK mode. This would be a button that you would double click to toggle on/off so when you were choosing cards it automatically passed for you. I think this would be helpful during battles so you don't need to wait for other people that are AFK. I'd love to see this added to the game!!!
I agree this would be a nice feature, but unless the person who goes AFK is a conscious human being, he or she isn't going to click the AFK button. Jumping into a battle and then going AFK is inappropriate and rude. I understand that sometimes real life might make you go afk briefly but my feeling is people who go afk in a battle are simply being rude and unconscious and could care less that they are making you wait each turn.
I think some wizards join a mob fight knowing others will do the battling and they will get the credit, so they do something else while you do the work.
I like the idea. But i find when many players go afk they don't say anything. They're just gone! So why would these same people press an afk button if they don't even have the courtesy to say something?
I think that would be a great idea I hate waiting for that timer. And yes I understand that things come up and people have to be afk but it is rude and for some people I've noticed it as a habit and they magically show up at the end of battle lvl90 lvl62 lvl29

Like the idea, maybe it could say somewhere "so and so is away from keyboard" so others know. If all 4 do that, they lose all mana and are taken to jade palace.
i like that idea. but i never afk from a battle unless i ABSOLUTELY have to. and if i could tell them (dont have text chat) i would tell them a estimate of how long i would be gone depending on what i need to do. great idea but if they do they should put a time limit on it so they have a chance to turn it back on.

Why would we be taken to Mooshu? That may not be the world we're in. We may be in Aquila and be taken to Mooshu. I wouldn't like that one tiny bit and free to play players would get some free access to Mooshu, Blaze Lifehammer's favorite place!

One good way to get around this, whether or not an AFK mode is implemented into the game, get a younger sibling who knows how to play the game and have them play for you while you're afk.
An excellent idea indeed. I can't STAND when people go afk in the middle of a boss fight, not only that but they get mad because they take forever and die from endless attacks and I dont heal them. Please kingsisle, you have to listen to this, we're the ones who play the game and most likely have better ideas for a "better and safer gameplay" or whatever your motto is.
I definitely live thus idea! I would use this because I have a dog I need to walk and he can't hold it in so I have to walk him and I thin its unfair that I make people wait on me.
I think what s/he meant was that it would make more sense if we were teleported to the hub of the world we were in.
Azteca: The Zocalo Avalon: Caliburn Zafaria: Baobab Crossroads Celestia: Base Camp Grizzleheim: Northguard Wysteria: Pigswick Academy Dragonspyre: The Basilica Mooshu: Jade Palace Only wizards currently in Mooshu would be teleported to the Jade Palace. It would make more sense, as I gather that this would be somewhat like fleeing a duel. You're teleported to the safe areain the world that you are working on.

As for an AFK button itself, I'm 50/50 on it. There are some who would actually have to go AFK and if so, hopefully they'd remember to click on the button before they left. However, sometimes people forget and don't do things. After that, they may not remember that they needed to press the AFK button. If ten minutes pass without them making a move they would automatically be logged out. That could present some problems to players who are questing with a group of two or more.
well thats not fair to the person afk it should be if they click it they don't get attacked or gain pips until turning it off and they automaticly pass
srsly so you have to go afk in a battle you turn auto pass on you get back and find your defeated and you think to yourself at least those other people didn't have to wait as long
No one else sees the problem here? What if a group doesn't like someone and they vote them AFK. What if the group renders a person a bad player and votes them AFK? What if there is only one other person in the battle and just wants to solo and votes afk? I can keep going on.
