If you are away from the forum for 5 days and have 2 days left to get your posts in, the best thing you can do is take the rest of the posting period off.

If you use the forum as a forum, there's no need to "take 2 days off" because you don't reach your minimum to be paid. You can still just post what you want, because you like it even without payment.
