It's that time finally! Here's our first How's My Driving? post. This sitewide meme will go up on the 20th of every month and it's encouraged that everyone post! Please post a list of your current in-game characters as a reference for other members to use for comments or critique.

Remember to keep it civil. Outright flaming will not be tolerated and we will deal with any hostile comments as soon as possible. Critique should be constructive. Offer ways a player can improve their characters, solve any problems you might have, etc. rather than just telling them they're horrible with no examples or pointers.

Likewise, this isn't a love meme. It's great to tell someone you think they're doing a good job or you love playing with them! Just give reasons for why you think they're awesome or what they're doing well. We're not discouraging positive comments. Love is great, but so is hearing why you are so you know what to keep doing.

Anon comments are enabled and IP logging is off for those who'd prefer a little anonymity, but please don't abuse this feature to be rude to other players.

If anything comes up, please visit the concerns page to let us know or contact us through any of the other various ways listed.

Reading his threads, I really don't get the impression he's a bad guy at all, so you may be going a little overly subtle. Otherwise, I think he's delightful, although I'm not familiar with his canon, so I can't say about ICness.

Thank you, anon. I have a bit of trouble with him because he likes to put up a I'm-on-your-side front to everyone when he's really in it for himself. I'm trying to balance the btw evil subtext without beating people over the head with it. At the same time I don't want people thinking he's sunshine and rainbows nicest guy evar. I'm gonna tweak him a bit and see if it helps.

right now he's trying to get people on his side before he does some really outright questionable things. long term goal is taking over the city which is ahaha i don't know if he can do it.

I get where you're coming from and I appreciate subtle villains, so I'm definitely not saying GO BE MORE BLATANT. I was just pointing it out, since you made mention of it. I just am not sure I would know he's supposed to be a bad guy, if you didn't tell me. Which may be his Master Plan All Along, who knows?

I, for one, welcome our new Goa'uld overlord.

Haha I didn't think you were. I'm just working on finding that balance and other people's impressions really help. I don't want him so subtle it looks like I forgot about him being evil.

Anyway, thanks again for the feed back.
