ACTIVITY CHECK DISCUSSION

Hey guys!

So there's been some confusion and disagreement about what should/should not count for activity check, what is counted where, etc. So this is a post where we'd like to discuss revamping the activity check system with you! Once we can get a clear idea of what everyone feels is fair, it will make it easier for us to have a clear system where everyone understands the activity requirements desired of each character in Paradisa.


SECTIONS:

What do you think should count for a post?
What should constitute thread "size"?
What should constitute comment "quality"?
How much should the mods be responsible for? The players?
How should a thread on a log be judged?

yeah :) I agree if it's only a few comments def. look into it! But I mean for a log with 4-5 people and only seeing something like 15 comments it becomes somewhat of a trick--do we look to make sure everyone actually did something or just pass all of them, even if 1 person never commented/only commented once or twice.

I agree with your last statement too! I want to find that glorious middle ground that makes everything better.

You could probably tell by the number of people + number of comments if it's something that should be looked at... and even then, maybe when posting the AC there could be a little asterisk that notes that although they were tagged in a log, it was not sufficient judge of activity and more threads are requested. I'd only use that in cases where it was extremely lacking though, like your example earlier.

It's a good thing to discuss! It becomes kind of a sensitive subject a lot of times, but I've always appreciated that Para keeps up with activity checks. I've been in games that let their players get away with months of inactivity, so I'm glad that there are efforts being made. I think any adjustments needed are minor and should be able to be reached in compromise.
