Activity Check Results / HMD

The results for the Activity Check are in. Please note that the following characters were either inactive, didn't post to the activity check, or failed to speak to a moderator about their activity. Also added were characters who have dropped recently, for your convenience.

Copy-paste the following here:



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

Hmm. You know, that does make a good point. I get the feeling I dropped the ball back there in Ling's post--especially since she'd been so curious about Tali's culture in my playthrough of the first game, and talked with her about all sorts of things regarding what life on the Quarian flotilla was like. To elaborate--Tali's race, the quarians, aren't exactly well-loved. They were the creators of a sentient machine species called the Geth--which eventually drove them from their homeworld of Rannoch. Since the creation of these synthetics, the creation of AI of any sort was outlawed--this is the source of the Quarians' bad rep.

Yet despite this, Shepard, being Paragon and a woman genuinely curious about her crew and their homeworlds, talked to her anyway. Had a heated debate, sure, but it went okay in the end.

Still, will definitely watch myself better when playing Shepard. Thanks.
