AFK detector

Shows the names of the players that are AFK in your group/instance.

Shows the names of the players that are POTENTIALLY AFK in your group/instance.

For info, the game does not allow addons to directly know if a player is AFK so i had to find another way... Here's how it works; If a player's health or mana/energy does not change for 5 minutes, the addon will mark that player as potentially AFK. 

Why "potentially"? Because in some cases the player might be active but at the same time not losing life or spending mana/energy. Here's a few examples: 

- In Isle of conquest or Wintergrasp the player might be driving a vehicle or shooting from a turret.
- In Ash'ran or Alterac the player might be just defending the solar sphere or a graveyard

In conclusion, when the addon shows a name, check where is the player standing. If the player is hiding behind a tree, a building or it's dot on the map shows him in the middle of nowhere then he's obviously AFK.
