Policy Guidelines Regarding Unarchivals [Subject To Change At A Moments Notice]

Process For Unarchiving, Updating Or Revamping Characters


Unarchiving Process

General Rule: As a general rule, we can request that new reviews of archived/old applications be given when we are unarchiving or activating characters. It is up to the digression of the staff member in question to determine if it warrants a new review, however. As they are not enforced on all applications. This is more of a reserved right that we have the ability to reevaluate any character profile that isn't aligned with our standards.

Unarchiving/Activation Process

If you are trying to unarchive/activate a character, there are a few things that can happen:

Scenario 1: If you are unarchiving a character, but the quality of the app is deemed sub-par, you may have your tier demoted in order to better match the standards we've set forth going into 2016. The site assistant/moderator/admin judging this profile will try and work with you more often than not, so you can either leave it as is or work yourself up.

Scenario 2: If you are unarchiving a character, but you were active with the character in thread and earned their upgrades ICly, then we will not demote your tier. Instead, we will provide leniency and simply advise that you update your application to match the standards we have for 2016.

Scenario 3: If you are unarchiving a character, but the quality of the application fits our standards, then we will leave their tier as and we will place your character back into the approval area with no contest.

Notes: Other things to take into account is that we are more focused on the higher end of the spectrum when it comes to the quality of the application. So this deals with anything pertaining to 0, 1 and sometimes 2 tier applications. Generally, we are more lenient on anything below that and won't require as much out of you.

Updating Process

More often than not, we will not really demote the tier of a currently active character that is under-going a profile update or revamp. You will need to make a staff member actively aware that you are making these changes and we will attempt to accommodate you.

It is also possible to still actively use that character while it is being worked on, but a document must be kept of their unedited powers or you must get clearance from staff. So, in the case of an app expansion, we'll take note of the amount of edits, copy the information that was listed or view cached versions of your characters application to ensure no cheating is found.

If someone abuses this, then they will lose their privileges to have this feature.
