But anon, I am big on backtagging... It's just that I'll put certain threads on hold while I think of a post, post it, boomerang a bit, then will get back to the other threads. This way the line of development for the character continues in a linear manner. I do have time to do threads, posts, etc - which is why I do them all. But if I want to pause a thread to be able to focus on something in the current, then yeah I'll do that then get back to the other. If not in the same evening, then definitely within a day or two.
Especially for Poly, which I consider my homegame and try to stay hugely active in. Not as much as I was in uni when I had time to do a whole afternoon + evening of boomeranging, but I definitely keep my shit up there. I don't do the minimum AC because to be frank, two posts in one month is inactive if you're using that as your only basis as activity. In Poly we as a playerbase (at least, the players I know!) generally believe that you're active if you two the two posts + tagging around, building CR, etc. Only doing two posts and no other activity would frankly be abysmal, plus impossible to get anywhere in a game.
I will literally comb through the network and pick several posts either at random whether it's people I have CR with already or not with to comment on, will thread through on them, etc. Poly is literally my priority above memes, psls, etc. I pick days just to do poly stuff during my week because Ataraxion is a much slower pace than it, so it's a higher priority as far as development per OOC day.
So yeah, to be honest, this crit is actually kind of out of left field in terms of my own perspective (which is of course not to say that it's factual if you're having this issue)? I'm actually trying to comb through my inbox right now and trying to see what threads have been dropped there because it really is a rarity for me, my view on rp, and my gaming style in general. The only sort of things that I "drop" (at least willingly) are threads that come to a conceivable end.
Looking at my inbox right now, the last tags I had to drop were from June - which I'm absolutely sincerely apologetic about, but it was a really difficult time with my work at the time and other RL stuff accumulating. So in this case if you had tags that were dropped more recently, it definitely could have been something where I was tagging from my phone and since gmail will stack emails by comment subject instead of separating them by date, it could have just been mislabeled? I really don't know, anon, I'm very sorry no matter what! And am absolutely taking it seriously to double check that things are starred correctly!
(Also it kind of looks like DW are some of your comment, so sorry if I responded too quickly for you to correct it / add to it!)
