How this works:
NARANDA wrote:I've seen many rate the _____ above you games but never one about characters, so here we go! I guess it fairly simple. Rate the character above you between 1-10 and post the name and a pic of your character along with artist/designer credit. Please just no gore, anything sexual or anything else inappropriate, basically read the CS rules for posting pics. Also no major bashing like "That character is so ugly, how could you even love it, I say delete it so it doesn't hurt our eyes" just no, that's plain rude and you shall be reported for this. If the character is not your style say something like. "It's a nice characters, just not my style" or "It seems a little too simple for me, but I'm one for complex designs."
Example:
Also see my post with the first character to rate for a visual example of how to make your posts look!

Person 1
(name and Image of character and artist credits)
Person 2
9/10! Say something nice or give some critique here about the character above, maybe name or suggestions for things if they ask for it.
(Name and image of character and artist credits)
Rules (Just Read Bold For Simple Version):
Do not post the same character more then ONCE per page
Due to some complaints from users, you may only post the same char once once per page. This does not mean you can post more, if you want to post twice on the same page, they must be different characters. This is to prevent the thread from slowing down due to a single char being posted too much which forces people to wait for someone who hasn't rated that char yet to post.
NEW* You MUST link/post one separate fullbody image (Read below for exceptions), but you may LINK to more art.
You must link or post one fullbody image, must be fullbody unless it was some sort of headshot adopt and you want ideas for the rest of the body or if it's a WIP and not the whole body is finished yet. You may LINK to more art/a page if you wish, extra art can not be in any other form for the sake of avoiding making this thread TOO image heavy.)
NEW* Posting/linking to extra information is allowed! Please link if over a paragraph long!
With extra art now being allowed so are links to character pages or species groups/forums with further information about a said character or the species of said character. You may post some info here as long as it is a paragraph or shorter, if it is longer I ask that you please provide it in the form of a link.
NEW* Credit the artist! If you are the artist, or don't know the artist just state that. You may state "Credit on image" IF the FULL username is clearly printed on the image! If it's crazy cursive writing or initials then you must type it.
The name on the image must be the full username of the artist/designer and must be readable. If it's not there, if it's in crazy/unreadable text, or if it's just the initials of the artist/designer then I ask you type the full username below the image.
Only post one character to get rated. No "You can rate more if you want", if multiple chars in image, state which SPECIFIC char to rate!
This goes along with the one art piece rule. The whole point is to prevent loading issues. Some people have bad internet or just slow computers that can't load a million pictures. So for the sake of those people, one char, one art piece per post. If there are multiple chars in one image (Such as some oekaki images/adopt sheets) state which character to rate, don't say "pick one", you must be specific and say which one to rate!
You may only post characters that you own, or have the owners/artist permission to post.
Video game or movie character? NO! Only characters that belong to you, or that you designed for someone. Maybe if a friend wants you to post a char for them because they are shy, as long as you have permission, then you may post it, just state that the char belong to your friend and you have permission to post them.
No reserving posts!
If you want to make a really long reply, you may give a rating (Numbers) for the previous char with a picture of your char and artist credit and just say next to the rating at the top "Will be adding feedback in a moment". This way you can add as much as you'd like but you don't slow down the thread.
NO RECREATING THE THREAD!
This thread shall now only be recreated by me (NARANDA) and it shall be watched and modded by me. I'll probably bring other people in as mods as well to help me. Only me, or if I give permission to one of the other mods, shall be recreating this thread from now on so people can't just randomly change the rules to fit how they want to play the game. The rules are here to keep thing efficient and to keep the thread running.
No Mini-modding or making unnecessary replies on this thread! (Only Mods may correct people here!)
Modding is the job of the designated mods of this thread, and the mods of Chicken Smoothie. Do not PM rule breakers or comment here correcting them. Also, do not make random replies to people rating your chars. Want to correct them about something or thank them, then send them a PM, if it's found here it will be considered spam! Mods may post here correcting people, but must also PM the person so they see, this way they are not corrected 3+ times for the same post.
