I was tryin to catch up on the posts in my camp and since I only check it a few times a day and I was thinkin. Would it be a good idea to summarize or outline WHO or WHAT your post is about at the very top? Similar to the big bold heading to help seperate it into distinct camps when it was one thread?

Example:

Heith, Avalorn, The Daedra Lord

Aridale cast a quick glance to his left in hopes that Heith would meet his eye and understand his intent to feint his next attack in favor of the Daedra Lord. Hopefully that would buy Avalorn enough time to get to his spells prepared.

The characters that my post pertains the most to are listed in bold at the top of the post on a single line if possible and includes any npcs and enemies that may be needed as well.

I think itd make it easier to scroll thru the posts quickly to make sure you dont miss anything pertaining to you specifically allowing you to read those posts more carefully so you dont over look any details then make your post as you need to to continue. Then youd be free to more leasurely read the rest of the posts weither they pertain to you not.

You shouldn't have such a problem when you leave the camp as the maximum size of each group will be eight.
