When it becomes a pattern/consistent problem, is when you're going to get pulled for a conversation. Even if you're not doing this for sinister reasons, you're not adding anything to the game logging out in under 5 minutes. It's not that hard to sit in your guild for 5 minutes, use the time command if you're not sure how long you've been logged in. Yeah, #### comes up, I get it, but if you can't make a commitment *most of the time* to stay logged in for 5 minutes, you might think about finding a different time to play.

It's also worth noting that if you consistently aren't logging in for at least 5 minutes, it makes it super hard for IMMs to catch up with you when you're online, pull you/have a conversation about this - thus you see offline RotD.
