I was thinking there should be a thread dedicate to user/character availability to organize groups for a better idea on how the forum is going. If someone sees your post and thinks you should post, they can simply nudge you via PM. Communication made easy, right? In "Suggestions" because it's still up to the mods.
There will be no need to post more than once here; simply update your post.
Here is an example template
[Username] [Average Posting Time] [Time Zone]

(specify which threads they are active in, with wrap under each heading, like below, from simplest subsection to broadest, and even if you want also a brief 'wat do' if you want)

Example (keep in mind subject to change) and you are not obligated to follow template exactly. have fun with it.
