<Snipped quote by Dead Cruiser>

Those of us who already have a character and a few posts in would be allowed to stay, yes?

I would assume so. I wouldn't kick already active players; I'm not Hitler.

We also need to consider that many people who are joining, or may join, may not stay to see this through to the end. Others may not be as patient for posts or get togethers. So, while I think it should be stricter, we shouldn't exactly close it completely. We want quality, but we also need a pulse.

The thing is that out of the original eight players that first submitted characters, seven are still thoroughly active. That's a solid player base by my reckoning. Some of us may leave in the future, but we've stuck it out for nearly a month so far. From my perspective, the players most likely to drop off are those that joined midway through (no offense), and so we'd be disrupting the RP for not very much future benefit.

2. I am interested in this. And would like to point out that this is a concept many people do not join until they see it actually going somewhere. It is a testament that this RP is likely going to last a long time.

I've never really heard of this. Maybe I'm an old fogey, but I rarely join an RP unless I was with it from the interest check. Joining an RP after you "see it going somewhere" is an honestly alien concept to me, and it just feels like piggybacking off of the efforts of the more senior players. Call me cynical but it sounds like, "This RP has a strong GM and player base. I had better join in now while the getting is good."
