That's a tough one to describe. I monitor quite a few groups. I have 38 Official groups open in my roster, plus a few personal groups that aren't very active (I don't want to close and lose them though). I only participate in about 5 or 6, and I keep 2 in Favorites. For groups that don't have much chatter but are important to me, I turn off the "Mute this room" feature so I always see their messages. Others I just glance through once or twice a day. (The sort order to most recent really helps with that. It keeps me from checking every room- I can just stick to the top of the list.)
