Activity Standards.

▶ Activity check will be constantly open. Each player will have a thread on the Activity Check entry, where they may submit their required activity as soon as they have completed it, at any time between the first and last day of every month. A warning/reminder post will go up listing the names of any player who has not submitted an activity proof by midnight EST on the second-to-last day of the month. All comments used as activity proofs must be timestamped between the first and last days of the month, per the game's EST time zone.

Acceptable activity proofs should be one of the following:

▶ One thread of 10 or more texting comments (must contain 10 comments from your character).

OR:

▶ One thread of 5 or more substantial prose/action bracket comments (must contain 5 comments from your character).

These are judged by the content of the post rather than the community it's posted to (for example, an action thread on a network entry would still count as prose).

▶ All activity proofs can be from either

redshiftrp or

redshiftlogs, monthly Test Drive Memes, or from mod-posted memes that are marked as game-canon and AC acceptable; threads from character IC inboxes are not acceptable as activity proofs. If a player doesn't have enough applicable proof of activity, they may post to the Activity Check post with a request for a strike. There is no option for two strikes in a row, so proof must be posted the next month or the character will be swept.

▶ Newly accepted characters will not have to provide activity proofs for their first month. They will, however, be required to provide a link to their responses to the various housekeeping entries linked in their application acceptance comment.

▶ Patterns of poor AC compliance such as taking a strike every second month, chaining hiatuses and strikes, or providing activity proofs with only one other character or player for an extended period of time will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis, as will any extenuating circumstances that may cause a player to struggle with AC.

▶ Hiatuses of longer than 14 days will exempt the player from activity check; in the case of hiatuses that span from one month to the next, the player may choose which of the two months' activity checks to be exempt from.

How to Submit.

Each player will have their own comment thread on this permanent Activity Check post, and will be linked to the character's subthread with every accepted application. Activity or a Hiatus notification must be submitted each month for each character for that character to remain in the game, by replying to that character's subthread each month. An example thread is posted below for reference.

Please use the template in the textboxes below to submit your activity for each month your character is in the game:

character's first month

regular ac

hiatus notification

This can be posted at any time between the first and last day of the month, and will be acknowledged as cleared by the mod account as soon as possible after posting.
