As long as you are in private home, owned or otherwise, you may idle or macro AFK to train skills. If you are in public and not responding after 30 mins, you will be moved to an appropriate private location. If you want staff to contact you directly in discord, please put your discord name in the OOC section of your .look and we'll poke you there.

Most of us are now adults, with kids, and jobs, and we've trained skills on UO for how long now? A decade for most, Two decades for many? Do we really CARE that someone sits there and watches the screen while gaining skills? To what end? If you wanted to RP, we assumed you'd go RP ... its why you are here. If you want to grind skills we assume you have your lap top open somewhere while doing something else more vital to running your life. I feel no need to make you look at a game screen so you can say your "at the keyboard". Hell I think we need less time spent in front of screens, so macro all you like, go get the sleep you probably need, tell your babies a bed time story, or simply flop on the floor and pretend you are being productive.

You may not AFK Macro in your shop at all, if you need to AFK macro buy a private home or stay with a friend.

AFK Crafting

However, we do not allow AFK crafting. Crafting directly effects the player economy and AFK crafting is not allowed on the shard. We would not more allow afk hunting and gold farming then we would allow AFK crafting. To that end, you can not hide while crafting, and all crafting stations must be placed in clearly public and easily accessible locations. Consequently, only public craft halls and buildings clearly designated as shops will have crafting stations.

We do allow crafting in shops, but shops are only on Summer Isle and are by default and mechanics considered to be public, and you are expected to be at the key board and available for interaction when in your shop.

Away from Keyboard

Means exactly this: You are away from your keyboard. It does not mean that you are expected to be staring at the screen. You can be chatting in discord, watching TV, or otherwise awake and reasonably attentive. If you like to watch TV while crafting, or should you be working for the shard scripting or building, please put your discord handle in your .look so those looking to interact with you can get your attention.

It does mean that you can not go to bed or go to work and continue to craft.

Arrows, bandages, oh my ...
