MOD ANNOUNCEMENT -- AC POLICY
First, this is a reminder that Activity Check begins in two weeks on April 1st, so now is the time to start rounding up posts, or make them if you're falling short. AC is one network or log post with comments, or 15 comments in another person's post. For this round all activity since moving to DW counts, so we don't anticipate any reasonably active players having trouble with it. Characters accepted in March are exempt.
Currently, we have a lenient activity check, and we loosened it even more for the move, in anticipation of complications which, happily, didn't occur. Our AC schedule worked just fine when we were a smaller, slower game, but that's no longer the case. Space Prom went to 3,000 comments in a week, and we are facing the fact that our little game is all grown up and ready to borrow the keys and wreck the car.
We have no intention of instituting an unreasonable AC, but we do need to make it more stringent to keep inactive players from affecting their casts and other CR, and there is plenty of room to tighten things up without AC becoming unmanageable. We are currently leaning toward keeping AC bimonthly, but increasing the total number of posts/comments required, probably with a mix-'n'-match system that will accommodate various play styles. However, we'd like your input before making any changes, hence this post. What would you like to see out of a new AC policy? What would you not like to see? We know people would like to have a purge list posted at the end of the AC period. Anything else?
Any changes will not affect this AC round.

as for the AC requirements. what I love about sing's AC is the fact that it has bimonthly activity check, which somehow is more managable for me. like someone up there said, it allows you to have some days / weeks off in the AC period without having to stress about making the AC. perfectly up for raising the requirements to 3 pieces of mix-'n'-match activity. as I understand it it doesn't have to be just three but could be 5 pieces of AC just so that the amount of comments sums up to the requirement? that's something that should clear in how the requirements on the AC page are worded. perhaps it should just say how many comments over all there need to be, that they need to be from three different links and for how many comments a network post counts? if ... that makes sense. x_x
