HOW'S MY DRIVING?

Comment with the names of the characters you play for feedback on your roleplaying. Other players will then reply to your comment telling you what they honestly think in a constructive manner. While both praise and critique is welcome, we'd like to remind you that this is a valuable tool for many of our members. We'd like to request that all comments remain constructive.

While the staff highly encourages everyone to participate, only comment if you are capable of giving and taking potentially harsh concrit in a mature, level-headed manner. Assume good faith at all times. Crit is meant to be resolved, not "won". Give mutual respect for each other's work and ideas. Aggressiveness creates unproductive stress and conflict. If you are emotionally compromised, you ~~are not fit to captain the Starship Enterprise~~ need to step back, take a break, and then return when you're ready.

Anonymous commenting is ENABLED. Anonymity doesn't detract from the validity of concrit. An anonymous compliment is a compliment; an anonymous crit is still a crit. However, if you are going to post anonymously, consider it your obligation to follow up –– it is frustrating for muns to never get a reply back, and HMD should be first and foremost an ongoing discussion.

We have provided a form to post with, if you would like to use it. Mentioning things like canon points, permanent losses and recent major events in their lives in Paradisa may help give people a better idea of the character's mindset and current actions.

Alternatively, you may choose to post a link to your private HMD thread on the character's journal and take comments there instead. The first thread of this post will be reserved for those people, and we will freeze those comments. People will be expected to follow the link to the character's individual HMD to give crit there.

Not going to lie, I really don't see a frequent posting of the permissions post to be necessary, if at all. If people have issues, they'll go to the posts themselves, and doing this is just shoving the characters/cast more and more into people's faces which is pretty much why the fandom gets so much flack in the first place. Informing people "Hey, don't forget this is here! Hey! Look at us! Hey." is excessive in my opinion, and makes the ENTIRE cast seem like we're this pushy with throwing our "special needs" out there for all to fuss and meddle over. :/

You've definitely got a point. :/ I've been kind of worrying about that myself, which was why it was only a consideration. Um. but how else do i tell people i love them and i care and i want to help them. ;;

Anyway, that's definitely a vote for nixing the posts. Thanks!

I am sure people know by now that we mean to not bother anyone, nor do we intend to flaunt our shiny new cast while stepping on their toes. We're all relatively polite and considerate here. Really, if it ain't broke? Don't fix it.

There are also a few personal issues re: Homestuck cast that I would like to bring to your attention, but I'd rather discuss those with you privately.
