    Default Just an idea

    As of now when u type /afk the only way for others to notice that ur afk is if they send u a tell. Maybe when u type /afk a symbol could apear next to ur name in the party list. Yeah it's not needed, but useful.

    Everyone I've grouped with has used the 'lfh' (looking for ham) emote as an indication of being afk. I'm pretty sure it's universally known as the afk emote.

    I don't. Kargon might come and beat me up and steal my ham!

    I think a symbol in the "Who" list would be nice, though.

    Ya not once since the game came out have I seen this used on Aundair/Khyber. Weird--is it really a universal afk emote on all the other servers? Or just Thelanis? Or what?

    Yep, used quite frequently on Ghallanda. Very handy little tool when you're in group or close by. But an icon in the Who List would be great for those people not in your area. Just put a little Ham by their name.
