activity check

[hohnkai]

Our next activity check is up! It will run from August 1st to August 8th, and all characters are required to submit AC (current characters) or check in (newly accepted characters). The requirements for making activity are rather easy-going. We only need to see one proof of activity from the list below in order to keep your place in the game:

5 log comments
10 network comments
15 IC inbox comments**

or

1 open network or open log post

If you use an old thread from a previous month as proof of activity, it must be the close to the required AC length with the additional requirement of a new thread started in the current activity month with 5 network comments or 2 log comments. This is to encourage new and on-going CR between characters.

Bonus Activity: Three proofs of activity equal one increase in rank. Regular activity does not count toward your bonus activity. There is a limit of four extra ranks a month. All bonus activity threads have to come from the month that the activity check pertains to (if the check goes up during the beginning of February, all threads must be from the previous month, January).

Comments can come from any number of threads. For example, 3 network comments from your character in one thread and 7 from your character in another equal one network comments proof. The same goes for log and IC inbox comments. Ranks may be traded in on the Restore page and come with a privilege/gift each month.

If you are having trouble fulfilling AC, please don't hesitate to contact a mod. For hiatuses: if the hiatus is between 1-2 weeks, AC will be half of the current requirements, and your character will have been in medbay for the duration of the hiatus. If the hiatus is more than 2 weeks, AC is waived, and your character is placed in cryo, which negates your rank for that month. Anything less than 1 full week will still be required to provide full AC. If you were on hiatus at any point, you still need to respond to the check.

Your character's new rank will be noted in the Mod reply to your AC comment.


** IC inbox threads used for activity can only be used every other check.

AC FORM:
<b>Player</b>: (Handle or name you go by) <b>Character</b>: NAME <user name=NAME> <b>Rank</b>: (Current Rank; new characters please put N/A) <b>Activity</b>: (link to required monthly activity) <b>Bonus Activity</b>: <a href=LINK>TYPE OF PROOF (LOG, NETWORK, etc.)</a> (Number of Comments or Entire Proof) ( Example: <a href=www.loglink.com>LOG</a> (7) ) ( Example: <a href=www.networkpostlink.com>NETWORK POST</a> (Entire Proof) )

Question about bonus activity! Can threads in a network post that you make be used for bonus activity, or can they only fall under "1 open network or open log post" as a single unit? Like, say I use a regular log thread or whatever for my regular AC—could I use separate threads in my own network post for bonus AC? I'm not trying to toot my own horn (I was surprised as hell that it got so big), but a network post I did earlier this month ended up with a ton of comments spread throughout the month, so I'm hoping I can use it.

Hello!

You can either use an open network post or log as one entire bonus proof or you can count up everything inside of it as single network or log tags. For example, if I make a network post that has 300 comments, I could claim it as one entire network post or count up those 300 comments and divide by the ten it takes to make a network thread proof. Obviously, the second way would get you a lot more bonus. So I would use something as the AC portion that is the minimum number of comments needed and use your huge one for bonus.

Thank you so much! That's about what I thought, but I wanted to be sure.
