    Prevent going offline due to AFK (minor benefit)

    This is something my wife stumbled upon on accident. She was afk from wow for more than 30 minutes and when she came back she expected to be logged out but she was not. Instead her character was stuck in limbo standing up and sitting down repeatedly, but since she stood next to a campfire, she got 25 fire damage and her character stood back up. Don't know if it works for any campfire, this happened to be the fire in the cave where you can find Dudebrul.

    It's not a major thing, but might come in handy for someone, somewhere.

    This is near common sense... Its same thing like with "go to dungeon, let mobs hit you to not go afk" before expansion hits..

    The only reason I posted it was because I was told the afk in dungeon would not work anymore. If it does, then yeah this is even more useless.

    For me best way to remain afk online without game logging me out is "getting locked in within teleporting". What I call it is any sort of teleport, when your game screen reloads, and if you minimize your game WHILE the screen is reloading, i.e. you see a board and progress bar, then you will remain afking and logged in endlessly.
    This can have many uses from minor, like tracking what's on guild chat when you're long away, to keeping spot in dungeon/lfr queue (this one requires proving grounds).

    Oh nice, did not know that was possible, that sounds like a good way of doing it.
