AFK - the a small issue

For player awareness:

If you type /afk then start a tell conversation with them, the game engine doesn't cancel the /afk status.

I found myself in the frustration situation where I received a tell, tried to reply and got the player is AFK message. Then they sent me the next line of their message. I tried to reply.... xxx is afk ....

So when using /afk if you want to get replys, move or something before you start the conversation. Otherwise we are going to have alot of players think they are being ingnored !!!

As soon as u do a action it cancles the /afk system.

I made a suggestion post along time ago to make the following....

When you type /afk your title changes to...

Name:
Away From Keyboard:
Guild Name:

And when you return you type /back or /bk or /b or something like that.

But that was ages ago still no change or a easy way of sorting it has ever been made.

Cheers
