I really appreciate your bulleted breakdown — that's probably more of what I would like to see provided by the mods. I would be interested to know if anyone has any issue interpreting a format like that, because if not, it seems the simplest solution to clear/concise breakdown.
For #2 — also hoping to hear about network -> action and how it would be counted in the 1/3 point structure, as well as single vs. separate threads.
For #3 — would also like to ask why inbox threads don't count under the 1/3 point comment count rule, as I thought it was pretty accepted that people do network and log type threads (action) in inboxes, and the suggestion is about rewarding the effort between the two. Seems it should be consistent.
RE inbox vs. closed threads in the comms: I tend to use my inbox for personal/reactionary CR that doesn't necessarily add anything to what my character contributes to the game, and I appreciate that it's allowed for AC at all (as most games don't). It's useful, I think, to allow me to feel a little more free to start random threads I might not necessarily want to take the time to set up as a log (or a targeted network post). I've had as much log activity as network activity in the inboxes, and just because those log-type threads are not pasted into the log comm, it's worth less for some reason, even if I've exerted just as much effort.
I will admit that I'd started a closed post on the log comm recently to replace and/or offset this inbox activity specifically so that I could harvest the additional points that I wouldn't have gotten otherwise (when I was still thinking I might collect bonus AC). But it concerned me that I would be interpreted as insular if I had to do the same every month.
It feels unnecessary to make that distinction if the 1/3 point structure's to be maintained. Should it really make a difference in points based on where we post the tags as long as they're in a game-sanctioned location?
