+If you use the `switch-out` function, the time when no-one was fronting will show up in front history as "no fronter". To disable this, use the `-fronters-only`, or `-fo` flag:

+```
+pk;system frontpercent -fronters-only

 ## Member groups
 PluralKit allows you to categorize system members in different **groups**.
