CHARACTERIZATION COMPLAINTS
REGULAR PLAYERS
Here’s how the system works:
If you feel that, even taking into account the character development entertained since entering the City, a particular character is played in such an especially inappropriate way, you are invited to submit a complaint by replying with the following:
We highly encourage the use of personal characterization/crit posts and communication with the possibly OOC player before turning to our official complaint process. Contact information is available for all players in the Taken List and on the official roster.
We do not require that a complainant be a part of the same canon crew as the character being complained about. This is a pan-fandom game and extreme OOCness has the potential to affect any and/or all characters in play, not just the characters from the canon in question. We also recognize that players may be very familiar with the source canon, but simply may not be playing characters from that canon. Unlike Bleach, for instance, some canons have limited play opportunities.
After three official complaints have been submitted, we will compile them and send the player of the allegedly OOC character an email with the following information: number of complaints, the nature of complaints, and any suggestions the complainants may have offered.
Per the majority will of the community, the identities of complainants will be kept anonymous at all times, however, if the person receiving the complaint letter wishes to do so, they may respond to the complaints - civilly - and we, the moderators, will convey the response to the complainants.
Once such an e-mail has been issued, we leave improvement to player discretion, and only further consider new complaints after two weeks.
We function on a three-strikes basis for characterization matters. If we end up having to email someone three times about the same character, signaling that absolutely no modification has been made and general RPing with the character is highly inconvenient, we will be forced to directly address the player on the issue and perhaps suspend their control of the problematic character.
The third complaint letter sent will include a request to arrange a time to have an IM conversation with two mods of the player's choice. This will be to discuss the nature of the complaints issued, the player's concerns on the matter, and whether or not the mods will consider suspension or removal of the problematic character.
Feel free to address anything from OOCness and inconsistency, to bothersome plot issues. For complaints against characters played by one of the moderators of this game, go
