Slothing

Slothing
Slothing occurs when a player does not post in the thread over an extended period.
 * The most common limit used by hosts is three days straight without posting.
 * Some games have it set so that if a player does not post for three days total.
 * If the silencer role is involved then the days spend being silent due to the role are not counted towards the sloth count.
 * If a player is forced to leave the game for outside reasons then the host can choose to sloth them immediately. Note: If a player has to leave the game due to being banned from the forums then it is considered smiting instead.

History
Slothing has been carried out in various ways.
 * In the early games, slothing was performed by the inactive person running off into the woods and being mauled by a bear.
 * Numerous games have involved the host using the sloths as comic relief and have killed them off in rather amusing ways. Examples of this are muffins, sandwiches, wererabbits, etc.
 * Other games have taken a more serious approach with the host having the player commit suicide or have a natural disaster remove them.
 * If an execution is scheduled on the same night as a sloth then a host may choose to have the sloth get executed alongside the person who is suppose to be executed.
 * In games where the innocent team needs guidance a host may choose to have the wolves kill the sloth as to give the innocents more evidence.
