A number of you passed the activity check, but barely. (You know who you are.) Try to pick things up, as it's no fun to character-squat.

If there are any mistakes here, please let us know! Additionally, if your character was removed and you're still active, feel free to appeal to one of us about keeping your character. However, please remember next time to stay active and post to the Activity Check. Thank you!

And as always:

HMD

How's My Driving?

This is a crit post for both the community and game and for your characters. If you have something you'd like to see us improve upon with the game, PLEASE TELL US HERE! Anon commenting is on, but if anything gets really nasty there will be warnings and thread-freezing. This isn't required but everyone is encouraged to take advantage of the advice of your fellow players!

Just some pointers: no taking cheap shots, no dragging personal issues into things and for the love of all that is wise and great, please double check your replies and comments before posting them. Sometimes a change in phrasing can make all the difference between a helpful tone and a condescending one.

ALSO ALSO: We'd like to clarify that HMD means HMD- which means it's okay to have both good and bad crit. Some people have expressed concerns about posting good/bad crit when a character already has bad/good crit posted. We'd like to encourage you guys to do it anyway! You can drive well or badly, and even good drivers make mistakes. So give it a try \o

(That's because I was a ditz and didn't have it set up right, it should be findable now. >_>)

I appreciate the fact that you decided to say anything at all, and are willing to give me a chance. I'm aware it's a problem that I have -- that I do find it difficult to get into things when there's a more chaotic feel to them, and I can fret more over detail than a lot of other people, which can bring about a clash in playing style, and it can lead to being more drained than finding a "happy" solution. I know specifically with some of our plots -- and I've brought up my issues with them elsewhere -- this really is reaching an unhappy place, so if there's a way to meet in the middle over things rather than being on one extreme or the other - that's usually what I try to look for.

It's been significantly worse in these past six months, but it's something that's always been there, in a sense -- and I hate that it's causing a problem. What I really want is to have significant CR development and the enjoyment of building bridges and seeing where they lead, even if I don't have the easiest character to do that with. So it's a matter of figuring out exactly ... how to compromise and relax without letting go completely of how I define myself as a RPer, and what enjoying that actually means.

If you'd like to talk about this more privately, or if you have any suggestions, you're welcome to ping me whenever you have the time, you know <3! Thank you again.

Thanks for taking it all into mind, bb. I want you to know I definitely enjoy having our CR even with those road-bumps we have at times, and I hope that you can find a balance and enjoy yourself to the fullest; that's really all I want for you in the long run, because that's what this is all about!
