PLEASE READ ALL OF THE BELOW RULES BEFORE POSTING.

1. POSTING TO THIS MEME IS COMPLETELY OPTIONAL. This means that if someone chooses not to participate, you must respect that decision and leave their characters out of any crit you post. Conversely, if you do choose to post your character(s) to the meme, you must accept all constructive input you receive. You do not have to agree with everyone's crit; however, any replies you post are expected to be courteous and respectful.

2. NO UNCONSTRUCTIVE COMMENTS. Regardless of the kind of input you're giving, be it reinforcement of something positive or calling attention to something questionable, you must ALWAYS give concrete reasons for why you feel the way you do. "Because," "due to," and "since" are examples of the kind of vocabulary you should use in your feedback. You are also, of course, expected to be courteous and respectful toward your fellow players.

3. PROHIBITED CONTENT IN COMMENTS:

• Unconstructive input, be it negative or positive
• Breaking any rules set by the original input request
• Malicious or sarcastic wording/emoting
• Threats or demands
• Falsification of facts
• Spamming


The above apply both to input givers and input receivers. Any comments containing the above will be subject to being deleted, frozen, or screened, and their posters will be subject to penalties.

IF YOU SEE ANY COMMENTS CONTAINING ANY OF THE ABOVE ISSUES, please do not reply to them and instead notify one of the Head Mods immediately.

4. IP LOGGING IS TURNED ON. However, Court, Psyche and I are the only people who will be able to see the IPs, and we will absolutely not share this information with anyone. The logging will only be used to identify rule-breakers, should the need arise.

5. PLEASE USE THE TEMPLATE BELOW FOR YOUR INPUT REQUEST. If you would like to specify certain guidelines, explain yourself, or ask for focus on a particular aspect of your playing, feel free to do so in the "other" section. Remember: if you're uncomfortable with receiving input in a public setting or if you'd like to give Anons the option of giving you input without their IP being logged, you are perfectly welcome to specify your preferences and link people to your character's personal HMD.

Name/Handle:
Character(s) Played: Character Name ([profile] char_username), Character Name ([profile] char_username)
Anon input allowed?: Y/N
Other: (optional)

We're fairly certain no significant problems will arise, but if they do, please e-mails us at damned.mods[at]gmail[dot]com. Alternatively, you can also PM, IM or private Plurk either Court, Psyche or myself. If you have any questions, concerns, or reports about the meme, please do not hesitate to bring them to us.

Thank you!

I've always thought it's so cool how you've got four characters into play, and yet they all have their own style going on. I mean, the way you write each one is really different without straying too far from your own personal writing style, and that allows each character's personality stand out while one can still be able to tell you wrote them. If...that makes any sense. this is really really hard for me to describe. XD;;; BUT YEAH. Personally, I find that balance between character voice uniqueness and my own writing style to be challenging with even just two different characters, not to mention trying to make them sound unique from each other alone, so I've always looked up to you for being able to do that so well!

Now, while I can't tell you if you've been specifically slipping with characterization (as the only series you play from that I'm familiar with is Digimon, of which I...only know the first season XD;;;;), you haven't been slipping with Renamon as far as I can tell from all the threads I've had with her. Her voice to me has always been very constant and believable. I've never had a moment where I read a tag from her and thought 'wow, Renamon really did/said that? That seems kind of ooc'. So yeah! I'd say you're just fine with her voice, and overall, I don't think you need to work on anything as far I can tell. Keep up the good tagging! o/

Thanks for that! I worry about that sometimes, if I'm making one more bland or ignoring the voice of another since I have a few. So yeah, it makes sense! And it's a bit reassuring. ♥

And excellent. Thanks so much for the feedback. I'm actually canon reviewing her now so hopefully she maintains that level of consistency. =)
