Generally speaking, there is no fixed time. While I would encourage 
anyone who wanted to to "idle" on IRC (keep it in the background logged 
in, assuming you have reliable and inexpensive enough connectivity), we 
see _so many_ people log in for five, ten, or fifteen minutes, ask a 
single question, and then disappear. This is not helpful behavior, nor 
is it conducive to getting responses. <br>
<br>
Remember, we are all globally distributed. IRC is not a replacement for 
e-mail lists. Please do not treat it as such.<br>

Hey dudes and girls, I was wondering if there's a fixed time where you 
guys are online on the IRC channel since I've been lurking for a week 
now and haven't found any activity!</div>
