Confirmed - it is only the looped emoticons that don't appear while moving. You have to stop moving to get those showing. Animated and non-animated emoticons are working fine (just for the record).

Maybe someone figured you don't need to walk while "AFK," but on the other hand, not everyone uses an AFK or "stuck (looped)" emoticon to actually go AFK. I see it all the time: player 1 slashes player 2, player 1 runs away playfully and does the AFK emoticon. Player 1 is suddenly not AFK anymore at the exact moment player 2 runs at player 1 for the revenge hit. I'm pretty sure I could've just mentioned "lamer" somewhere in there and you would've gotten the idea much quicker, but that's no fun.
