As one of the guilty parties, I will try to logout more often. I normally open a session to the Monastery first thing in the morning and leave it around in the background for reading during breaks in work. There are occasions when I can't/don't get back to it for a couple of hours (days) at a time. I'll put a sticky-note on both monitors to remind me, and start to get into the habbit.

I had noticed that I dropped off of the "Other Users" list, even though I was obviously here, when I hadn't actively done anything monk-ish for a period of time. Now I know why.
