Activity Check & Hiatus

AC Example AC Questions Updates & Drops Navigation

Activity

Activity consists of 10 comments per month from your character.
All AC will be processed from the 1st to the 5th of each month.
Post a comment down below from your character's journal with their name and canon in the subject line.

These ten comments must be dated in the month of AC (ex: April AC must be dated via timestamps in April).

We accept backtags up to three months old.

Activity is accepted from events, logs, network posts, and TDMs. We do not accept AC from inboxes.

Each proof must have at least three comments from your character's journal.

You can post more than two proofs to meet our AC requirements.

Your proofs must be with at least two different characters.

We will ask for variety in your AC if we notice you exclusively stick to the same characters for proofs.

If you make a top-level, open log, or open network post with multiple comments, you can post the entire thing as your proof.

You may have another player or a mod post your AC for you. You do not need to ask permission to do so.

You can post your AC at any point during the month. You will have until the 5th of the following month to post AC.

Anyone who misses AC will be given a warning to post AC. Once this period passes, you will be swept from the game.

You will be allowed to reapply in the following application cycle.

If you consistently miss AC and get swept, we may speak to you about extenuating requirements for you to re-enter the game.

You are not required to meet AC during your first month. You will still be required to check-in.

Activity Check

Hiatus

You can apply for a hiatus at any point.

This will serve as your "check-in" for whichever AC period you might miss.

You are allowed to have another player or a mod put up a hiatus for you.

We allow at least one month for a hiatus. If there are extenuating circumstances, please send us a PM to our Mod Journal and we can discuss options.

We do require regular AC to be met after a hiatus, even during a No-AC month.

If you have a habit of taking frequent hiatuses closely together, we may talk to you about your activity and place in the game.

Characters on hiatus can either go about their daily lives or temporarily vanish without any clue as to where they went or what happened.

You will have to post your hiatus to each character you plan to put on hiatus.
