[ On Hiatuses and Slowatuses ]
We've had a few complaints about this, so we needed to address all the slowatus and hiatus posts that have been going around lately.
Please keep hiatus/slowatus notices to an absolute minimum. You don't need to post a hiatus if you're going to be gone for 36 hours, and you don't need to post a slowatus if you have a paper to write at the end of the week. Everyone in this game has a real life, and almost all of us routinely experience short periods where we can't tag all the time because work or school or personal life is interfering.
These are normal disturbances and they're to be expected; no one is going to resent you if you're not tagging back immediately, or if you spend a week tagging a little more slowly in your spare time.
Please only post a hiatus when you expect to be completely AFK for four or more days. Please only post a slowatus when you think you won't be able to tag unless a miracle happens.
We've all been abusing these, mods included, but as of now we're going to ask everyone to scale back and return to only declaring a hiatus (or, in rarer cases, a slowatus) when necessary.
Thank you!
