# AFK

## /afk set

This command enables AFK mode for you. While you are AFK, members are getting notified, once they mention you in a message (this does **not** include message replies!). \
The bot will also update your nickname (if it can) and add  a "\[AFK]" tag in front of it, to show everyone that you are AFK.

![\[AFK\] tag will always be added in front of your nickname, if possible.](https://2864768242-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MjKTLkw738AQmU7f9pQ%2Fuploads%2F2JbqK07KV9HiNfGAEbB3%2Fimage_2022-01-21_220707.png?alt=media\&token=474fa35e-e9b4-4f2d-9e4f-5318770267fc)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Bot needs Manage Nicknames permission in order to change the nickname of members. If the permission is denied, the bot cannot change the nickname.
{% endhint %}

```
/afk set
```

## /afk remove

This command removes your AFK. You can also just send a message in any server you share with ManageBot, in order to get your AFK removed. When your AFK is removed, the \[AFK] tag will be removed on the server where you originally set your AFK, even when you wrote in another server. This requires, that you share that server with ManageBot.

/afk remove
```

## /afk check

Check if a user is AFK. Useful, when you don't want to ping them.

```
/afk check <user>
```
