Why do I see avatars sitting down with a computer?

  • When you're in a SchoolSpace world and minimize your browser or switch to another tab, your avatar changes to 'Away from Keyboard' or 'AFK.' Other people will see your avatar sit down with a computer in it's lap.
  • When you maximize the browser or return to the world tab, your avatar will stand up again.
  • In most cases you will only see other avatars sit down with a computer.
