Eh, as much as I would like this, the way you made the suggestion is kinda invalid... It doesn't really follow the stickied forum suggestion rules http://minerealm.com/community/viewtopi ... =10&t=9292 .

I don't see any reason to vote no. It isn't swearing, so it should be removed from the filter if possible. On the other hand, Intelli has previously said that making official suggestions about addition/removal of words from the swear filter is unnecessary, as he will add or remove them based purely on whether he thinks they count as swearing or not, not on popular opinion. So basically, either this suggestion is invalid, making votes meaningless, or it's valid, and since AFKing isn't inappropriate language, you should vote to remove it from the swear filter.

Or you could speak properly and it wouldn't issue a warning. There is no afking, it's impossible to be away from keyboarding
You are either away from keyboard or not.
Improper - "Afking for stuff isn't working."
Proper - Being afk for stuff isn't working.
Another thing to note is why helpbot is seeing it as a swear, if you switch the first to letters around helpbot would immediately see that as a swear because it would be avoiding the original word. I'm sure you can figure it out so I don't have to type it.
So removing it from helpbot for actually working correctly is pointless, just because you see it as broken doesn't mean it's not functioning correctly. Speak properly, this incident is the first time I have ever seen anyone say afking.

Or you could just type AFK!
As rokkr said, removing it will nullify helpbots ability to catch avoiders
