Table open when player is away

I think the table should be automatically closed when the player goes 'away'. I have seen many people attempt to join a table, not realising that the person is away. These people probably come away feeling insulted that the person wouldn't play them, not realising that they were away. It only takes a few seconds to set up a table, it's not as if you lose five minutes work if the table was to be closed when you went away.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
