Re: AC Changes!

[rubycitymods]

Hello everyone!

We have a quick announcement concerning AC. This activity period (6 May- 5 June) will be the last time we use the old guidelines (one post with 15 comments, a 15-comment long thread or log post.)

Starting with the June AC period, we will implement the new guidelines we proposed and had a poll on earlier this month. The new requirements for meeting AC will be one of the following:

1. Two posts/logs with at least one comment
2. One post/log with at least one comment plus a thread of ten (10) comments total
3. Two threads with fifteen (15) comments overall

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to respond here or contact a mod.

Just a thought, but what about characters that app during the AC period? When you only need one proof, only characters accepted within the last week being exempt is fine, but with two proofs, maybe people who app in two weeks before the activity check should only need one?

Sorry if this has already been discussed, I may have missed it.

Hi!

One post can actually count as two proofs. Let's say you make a post that has a total of 30 comments, for example. Two subthreads within the post total 15, so for AC you could have the post itself as a proof and have those two subthreads count as your second.

This method is optional, of course, but this would allow any new characters to meet AC requirements with their intro post alone if they don't have anything elsewhere yet. The AC exemption for new characters will still be the same as it has been.

Does this answer everything? :>

Yes, that helps. Thank you very much.
