When I have time to kill , I log into Mudchat , shift the screen over so I can see if any one comes in , then do what ever else I want or need to do on the 'puter ! As Foolestroupe said , a lot of people pop in , DONT wait any time at all , and log out ! IF one is in the middle of something , by the time you can leave it , they've buggered off !!
