JULY ACTIVITY CHECK
Okay, guys! As you know, we are trying something new for our activity requirements. We have ditched AR and Purgatory, and all that remains is this! A new form of activity check! So I am going to make sure that everyone understands it and that we are all on the same page. Instead of just posting and saying yes, you are still here, we are gonna need a little more work now!
You will need to link an active thread with every character that you have, that has been posted in by you since the last activity check! That means we are looking for a linked post from April to June! I know what you are thinking, but now it's July! Are you telling me I can't save a character that doesn't have any threads by posting with them this month? You can, buuuut... there are two rules on that. Starters will not count, and you cannot join an open. Not trying to be harsh or mean, but there have been definite cases of joining opens only to abandon them, or starting a thread just to start it for the post. So you can link a July post in a new thread, as long as it is not just a starter, or you did not just join an open. So I hope that part makes sense!
If you are on an absence, you do not need to post here. However absences do not save you from inactive characters. Unless your absence spanned from April to now, there is no reason for characters to not have had a post since April! But you do not have to post here -- anyone on an absence, staff will just be checking your threads for you on the first of August! We will get that all sorted out for you!
Onto August 1st -- when this AC comes to an end, we will be going through and marking characters as inactive if they did not have a thread in the time period! All that means is that we will be unsorting them basically! We will be putting their application in a separate part of Registrations for Inactive Characters. Their face, job, and other particulars will then be for grabs for other members! You will not be able to reclaim them for at least the first week of that month. To make them active again, you just need to start posting with them again -- again, joining opens and starters will not count. That doesn't mean you can't start a thread, obviously, but they will not be considered active again until a starter gets further than one post!
Yes, that does technically mean that while you are 'reclaiming' them, you will be posting with an unsorted character without a face. But after those posts, you will be able to reclaim jobs and faces and, if applicable, change jobs and faces if someone claimed them! I think that sums up the basics! So, let's get started!
