That was my very first thought, and I’m not even into pvp. "Damn, that would be a great baiting strategy. " ---

I think an AFK flag is a great idea!!! I’d like to see a BIG space arrow pointing at a ship with an even BIGGER AFK next to it. I’d really like to be able to see it from 16AU as well. 🙂 ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/4/8/4802457e87053b4d4ce7eb28199ff7b872d7b63c.gif) ---

Oh. I wouldn’t mind if there was a button to flag myself as AFK in corp / alliance chat, just like there is in most 3rd party tools. Hmm, do I get to post if I don’t feel particularly strong about something? 😃 ---

They should add AFK miners to the Agency menu. ---

> [@Rich\_Darine](#): > > Would a way to mark ourselves as AFK be good? As long as that tag only shows in Corp and player created chat channels. Also it should only activate while docked in a station or structure… Yeah, then it would be good to have it show. ---

Just rename your ship “AFK back @ 15:30” ---
