Policy Discussion
Some of Singularity's players have questions about the game policies on AU character applications. This post has been put up to allow players to approach the staff to ask questions, offer suggestions, and voice concerns regarding those policies. The moderators are also available via IM/PM [contact information] if any player does not feel comfortable discussing their concerns in public.
As of the end of this application round (August 15th), AU applications will be closed until this matter can be resolved. This ban on AU apps does not apply to the exceptions listed in the AU policies (malleable protagonists and canon AUs).

I understand your point, but I don't think you're looking at the whole picture here. As I've mentioned, AU'd characters should still be recognizable and make the same sorts of choices, as that's what makes them who they are. Swapping around characters and leaving every other thing the same wouldn't make sense, since characters would have to make decisions that wouldn't always make sense for them, but if they did make different decisions based on their personalities, that isn't wrong or out of character. That's what making an AU is all about!
