We do not require traditional "activity" check-ins, but we do require an interest check-in to ensure that our players are present and still engaged with the characters they play.

You will be required to check-in during the 1-8th of the month. If you cannot access a computer during this time, please let a mod or friend know so they can check-in for you.

You must check in your individual characters. If you fail to check in with any characters, they will be swept from the game.

If you missed check-in due to extenuating circumstances, please contact the mods ASAP and let them know the situation.

We ask our players to be active in the game even without formal activity check requirements. If we notice any concerning patterns with the same players missing check-ins and being swept from the game or being irresponsible with check-ins or squatting we will contact the player directly. This may include restrictions from reapplication into the game or actual activity requirements.

Please respect your fellow players and mods! We want to keep this game activity-requirement-free and active.

Anatomy Of Check-In

Every player will have an overall check-in comment with their name as the subject line. Every character a player writes will have a comment with their name and fandom as the subject line. Each month, players need to post a comment under each character's comment with the month and year in the subject line.

The comment structure will look like:
🦊 Player Name
🦊 Character Name | Fandom
🦊 Month Year
🦊 Month Year
🦊 Character Name | Fandom
🦊 Month Year
🦊 Month Year
Check-in Content

Check-in comments are IC only, and are required to include a minimum of one specific thing your character did this month. You're welcome to include more.

Formatting is your choice: sentences, bullet points, something else. We're not picky!

We do not want links to threads, OOC explanations, or apologies. Folkmore is a chill game, and it's completely fine to have not played much.

We welcome and encourage handwaving. Give us something your character did in the background or plans you have to back thread. Note handwaved interactions you discussed with other players. Many players use their check-in posts as records of important beats their characters experienced.

The bottom line is to show you have some OOC idea what is going on IC, even when you're not actively able to RP, to demonstrate your continued engagement in the game with the character.

Character Name: Sorey
Player Name: Egg
Summarized Activity: Sorey has come to the conclusion that while malevolence behaves very differently in this place, there are still plenty of people who suffer from its effects on a personal level and he's wondering if there's something he can do to help with that, even if he can't purify anything without his Prime Lord here. He and Mikleo also spend a lot of time talking and reading and being in each other's company like an old couple who have been married for 60 years. They DO in fact sit together on the couch with books and snuggle.
