It is used as a way to let others know that the person will be temporarily unavailable, and it's a way to inform others that the person is not purposely ignoring them.

"AFK" means Away From Keyboard. Away From the Keyboard means you will not be playing/working on the moment. It's a different way of saying you're going somewhere for a few minutes.
