    I left my computer running overnight to farm Vote Parties whilst I slept, and came back to find that I was dead. Is some kind of anti-AFK measure, or just a bug?

    I was also wondering if there would be any way to get back a few of the items that I lost, or a way to check my cause of death.

    It doesn't really matter to me if I get my items back or not, I would just like some closure as to what happened.

    Thanks for the help in advance!

    Also need to know around what times you were afk, your time zone, your in game name, and where on /skyblock you parked yourself.

    It's likely you starved to death, this has happened to me multiple times. AFK pools aren't totally safe

    For future I can get a regeneration pool going on my island or I could donate a beacon to help with this.

    Can you tell me exactly what you lost with this?

    An assortment of Stone Bricks (blocks, stairs, and slabs), Cobblestone (blocks, stairs, and slabs), Nether Bricks (blocks, stairs, and slabs), a couple of signs, and a few things of value: Max enchant diamond pic (sans silk touch), Max enchant diamond axe, and a bucket.

    There's probably a few other things, but I can't remember them offhand.

    I do have a spare pickaxe and axe, but they have yet to be enchanted.

    Thanks again for all of your help!

    I’ll give you a stack of grass when I get online, hopefully that will cover it all. I also have a spare silk touch you can have :)

    I suggest adding a hopper(s) in the AFK pool and then enclosing it with walls so that when you die, the items don't fly out everywhere and they'll be put in the hoppers.

    I don't think this has been mentioned, but you said you died with a bucket. It should return to your inventory with /lnf. /lnf, short for /lostandfound is a command that retrieves dirt, sand and buckets lost when you die

    You will go through hunger in an AFK pool.

    Skyblock.net does not have anti-afk like Economy, so you'll be better off in the future leaving yourself in a small box where you can't be moved.

    Whenever I afk'd before I had /god, I'd just box myself in so that I couldn't move. If you don't, you risk accidentally moving, or someone pushing and killing you while you're gone.

    For total protection, you can look into using an auto-eat mod. That is what many without /god will do in AFK pools on Economy
