    I believe this would be a good option (if possible)

    For VIP's (Or Whatever Rank)+, if a player goes 7 minutes without sending a chat message, command, or moving, or placing/destroying any blocks (Basically any activity), then it would automatically do /AFK for them, but it won't place a chat message saying "(x) is AFK". It would only send a msg to any player who tries to /msg the AFK person that he/she is AFK. In addition, when the player moves/performs a new action, it would send each player who attempted to /msg that person a message saying "(x) is no longer AFK.". I believe this would prevent all spam. However, an issue would be performed whenever an AFK Player is falcon-punched, as can be demonstrated, if an Admin+ goes AFK, and gets falcon-punch'd, then it sends a chat message saying "(admin+x) Is No Longer AFK!"

    But yeah, this should solve a few problems.

    or we could do that thing where when u dont move or speak for a while it automatically says ur afk without u having to write anything.
    and it'll say -x is no longer afk- when we do move or speak

    problem solved !

    if you're standting still completely for 2 minutes at a time I believe you're either AFK or doing something else on your PC.

    Well coming from someone with an extremely laggy computer at times, I for one stand still a lot just talking and not moving around

    If a message pops up from entering this "afk pool," one can easily spam chat. I honestly don't think it is worth it.

    Just give us permission to use essentials.afk and essentials.afk.auto then add like a cooldown or something in CH

    Problem solved

    Not sure if we should do this, the benefits are very small. Maybe add a poll or something?

    How about this:
    No cooldown, as this means you may be afk for less then 30 seconds, and you can still "un-afk" yourself.

    Also, no chat message. You can tell someone is afk if you /seen them or when you message them it tells you "(xXR0b0tH4x0rXx) is currently AFK" and when that player "un-afk"s themselves, it will send a private chat message to anyone who messaged them saying "(xXR0b0tH4x0rXx) is no longer AFK" That way it doesn't spam the whole server, just the people who wanted to know. (Of course this resets after the "no longer AFK" thing so that they aren't bombarded with the message every single time that player is afk)

    Furthermore, it won't just be for VIP+ it will be for all members, as the spam issue was solved above ^^^

    I like this idea, I also think it should be for Donators+, as a lot of commands were opened to players using vote (/v, /gm, big plots, etc), and I personally feel Donator needs a few more perks to even it out.

    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    /afk
    And so it continues
    Thats why AFK was removed in the first place?
    Maybe add a way to stop the spamming?
    like you can only use /afk once every 10 mins?

    That's what we're figuring out how to fix
    Yes, I agree. Donators need more perks.

    Finally we agree on something! Yay!

    Poll closed, more than half voted no. So suggestion denied.
