What we did at an old RP was we regularily checked who had posted withing a certain timespan and if you hadn't posted your character was dead. Now at the start that doesn't seem like a real pain if you get killed but I had a character that was really advanced in the RP and he got killed when I left the RP, then when I returned I had to play something else. 

Otherwise I'd like to make another character if we need any, I can RP 2 or 3 at once. Especially with the pace we're going at now. 

Also may I add, Liferusher seems pretty capable of RPing and stuff so might as well give him a shot at it, right?
