Okay, so with the arrival of a new player/character, I've been thinking about how active this game is. It's not brimming with activity, but there are still plenty of characters and players that enjoy being here!
However, there is a decent-sized list I've made of characters who haven't had any activity since
May 1st! In fact, some of them are my own characters (oops?) but more troubling are the characters who are the sole property of a player. It's easy to lose track of your activity if you've got a bunch on your plate, but not when you only have one or two.
Would you guys be open to an activity check? It wouldn't be a regular occurrence to keep up with; it would be implemented any time we get to this point -- lots of characters, lots of players, not a lot going on.
It would also curve to fit the players -- if you have a lot of characters to keep up with, you're going to be given a wider span of time in which to keep them all active (roughly three months); if you have less than three, you're going to be given less time. Also, journal entries would count toward activity
only if you've played the character in a thread before.
ETA: Hermeh asked a GREAT question - What if you have a lot of characters in other games? If this is the case, just let me know and you'll be added to the list of players with more than three characters. This way, you'd have the greater time span in which to be active. :)
Exemptions would be anyone who has told me/posted a hiatus
before today (so no cheating and suddenly calling hiatus; doesn't work like that), and characters approved within the past month.
So! Feedback! Go crazy! :)
