AFK Shield – Protect your inactive players like never before!  Tired of AFK players getting killed? This plugin gives them full protection until they move again.. The plugin tracks player activity and, after a configurable timeout, marks inactive players as AFK. While AFK, players:
- Cannot take any damage (including from mobs, players, or the environment)
- Cannot be pushed or moved by other players, mobs, or knockback
- Are protected from Creeper explosions in their vicinity
- Instantly lose protection upon any movement or rotation

This plugin is ideal for survival, creative, and semi-vanilla servers where fair play and player protection are important. It is easy to install, requires no configuration, and works out-of-the-box.

Features
- Automatic AFK detection
- Complete damage immunity while AFK
- No entity or player can move AFK players
- Prevents Creeper explosions near AFK players
- Instant protection removal on movement
