Can we just stop saying AFK?
Seriously AFK is a term coined by PC gamers which stands for "away from keyboard." This is a console game, people need to start saying "AFC" or "away from controller"

1 ReplyAs soon as everyone stops referring to magazines as "clips."
-
My buddies and I say AFS which stands for away from sticks. Sounds way cooler than AFC in my opinion haha
-
Part of longtime gaming vernacular. Almost everyone understands what it means. No need to get rid of the term.
-
Its just another internet thing with a general meaning. LOL for example is just an expression.
-
I have a keyboard clip on my controller. Your argument: invalid! Lol, cheers!
-
Lol +1, thank you
-
Interesting, I just assumed it was "A Free Kill." Which will happen if you go AFK in the crucible. I will find you...and I will kill you. I'm that guy.

Edited by doZi: 1/19/2015 7:55:09 PMBelieve it or not, some people actually play this game using KB/M. There is no need for an entirely different term to be coined for console games. If you want to complain about a frequently used term, pick one that's actually annoying. Cheese, noob, scrub, casual, etc.

Does it matter?

1 ReplyYes, and people need to stop calling the USA, "America" because America takes up two whole continents and not just one country
-
1 ReplyYeah right after you stop using Kleenex and windex as names for things too. They are facial tissues and window cleaner. Simply put AFK is the shortened "brand name" if you will for being away from your game. Its not going to go away, just accept it as it is the normal thing to say.

2 RepliesBeing mad about that makes about as much sense to me as being mad that someone said "LMAO" without their ass actually falling off.
-
Away from kontroller. It makes sense you just need to mispell it :D
-
When I say "AFC" i think of KFC and that makes me hungry and changes the subject.

1 ReplyWe don't want to confuse things with the American Football Conference.

5 Replies"Away From Kontroller". I don't see the problem.
-
I'd reply but I'm AFC!

AFC Championship?

Why? It's like the word "Google" becoming synonymous with the word "Search" AFK has simply become synonymous with being away from the game
-
BRB ;-)

Can we also stop making children that waste our oxygen.

1 ReplyI'm never really away from my controller though.. I take it with me but it just goes out of range when I walk around in my house. I can't finish the strike from my bathroom :/
