dehumanize yourself and face the bloodshed

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

If you're relying on tags from the month before to pass an already easy AC for the current month, what were you even doing all month?

Nowhere on the mod post is it asking for AC crit/opinions, but people seem to be giving them anyway. How much more give are people expecting on an already simple requirement?

Prioritize threads that count for the current month's AC. It's not hard.

I can understand the confusion in this case: the Helisium overflow log was posted in August, so it's easy to see how people would think that tagging into or tagging something new in it would count for August's AC. I like the one suggestion that was made of having little OOC notes on event posts stating clearly what month/months the event post count as AC for.

Although tbh, I think the AC could use some serious reworking. There are way too many qualifications for what does and doesn't count for AC for a game with such a low comment count requirement. I'm in another game with a significantly higher AC requirement and its AC isn't anywhere near as complex, so to me it's very weird to have a game that's essentially a glorified sandbox have an entire list of "this counts for AC but this doesn't, except in this situation" rules. That's the kind of thing I would expect from a plot-intensive game, not something that is mostly slice of life.

An OVERFLOW log for an event that started in JULY. It shouldn't be that hard to figure out whether or not it counts for August.

Come the fuck on. The AC is so easy that this game has a tone of squatters and characters that barely exist already because of it. It doesn't need to change. What does and doesn't count is laid out on the AC page every month and is pretty clear cut.

This isn't rocket science and anyone bitching is a fucking baby.

Some people honestly thought that if a post happens in a month with the time stamps being in that same month, it should count for AC. That’s not unreasonable. You sound like a mod trying to vent.

the event was posted on 7/22. last week of july is what counted for august ac and that was 7/24. some people didn't tag into the event until after the 25th. overflow being posted in august didn't help. it's an easy mistake to make and a lot of people made it.

calm down.

It's funny you should say that because my suggestion was actually going to be that the mods should just disallow comments from any post or log started in the previous month. There's no reason people can't find enough things posted during the current month to tag to be able to rack up ten comments in a little under four weeks. If they can't, they're way too slow to be in a game, period.

TBF I've had some threads run over from months before that have been really important to my character or that I just enjoy. If it's clear I'm actively tagging and the thread is ongoing why can't that be ok for ac if it started a few days before the acceptable AC period?

...because it means you did nothing but backtag old stuff? how is this so hard? lots of games have a "the thread must start this month" rule
