Depending on whether or not having a 'job' is defined by getting [i]payed[/i] to work, I might not belong here. Not that I give a shit if people don't respect the work I do when I work harder than most people who get payed a fucking fortune.

I more or less work sixteen hours a day (this includes weekends) and sometimes have to do all-nighters due to things piling up, dealing with a massive backlog of past notes while contending with new ones as they come. I don't really have time to game, or watch stuff, or even just go out for a walk sometimes to be blunt with you. This site more or less sits in the background while I work on everything, just as a tab I can browse around every so often and sometimes take breaks to reply in various threads.

I think it's really all a matter of time management for the most part, like people here are suggesting, as well as the type of role-plays you're taking part in. I don't really do role-plays that move faster due to being an 'advanced' role-player (even when I'm in 'casual' forum I tend to only take part in the role-plays that allow me to post in more detail), so - as said previously - the pace is usually slower. The IC for one of my role-plays here hasn't even started yet despite us having a handful of OOC pages now.

If you're having time issues, I second the notion that you should cut down the number of role-plays you're part of to only those you truly care about -- honestly, I'd do this even if I [i]did[/i] have free time, and I've had to pull out of a few role-plays here that I considered joining (but never actually did officially join) simply due to time problems.
