afk

Urbandictionary is full of definitions for this word that say it means "away from keyboard" (in gaming), i.e. the player is inactive, doesn't respond to greetings, such and such. Most of the time, this is what it means.

I would like to give a specific example to further flesh out its meaning: in RuneScape, there is such a thing as "afk training". Literally it's a playing style where you are not literally away from the keyboard or even inactive, you're just doing something on a split screen or paying little attention to what's going on in the game itself as you train your skills, because they are designed to be done "afk", or more accurately, "semi-afk". We just call it afk in this game no matter what.
player1234 is afk... he hasn't been responding to my messages for at least 15 minutes (general example)

rang3r4lyfe is training his firemaking in the most afk way possible, burning protean logs (RuneScape-specific example)

double AFK situation

Commonly happening during travelling, double AFK situation refers to the inability to watch latest YouTube videos on the smartphone caused by two causative factors at the same time — i.e. low battery levels and poor signal reception.
Stuck on the interstate roads located in the highlands with a dying battery and no signal, I found myself in a double AFK situation, missing out on all the new YouTube videos I’d been dying to watch!

AFK

An acronym for "ashed, fucked, and kissed". Usually occurs in very toxic relationships in which a boyfriend or girlfriend "ashes" a joint on their significant other, then proceeds to have shitty sex with them. If someone has been AFK'd, they are most likely crazy.
"Yo dude, last night was so much fun, I AFK'd my girl."
Guy: "How'd you get that burn on your arm?"
Girl: "Oh this? My boyfriend AFK'd me when we were 14."

AFK inflation

AFK inflation refers the increase of the amount of screen time you're supposed to have in order to catch up latest YouTube videos that happens whilst the amount of screen time you're able to have remains the same. There are quite a few causative factors that can cause AFK inflation, e.g. having many YouTube channels uploading new videos at the same time.
After a week of being busy, I felt the effects of AFK inflation hit hard; with dozens of new uploads waiting for me, I realized I’d need to binge-watch for hours just to catch up latest YouTube videos!
