Good day, everyone! As some of you may remember, we introduced the label system to the site toward the beginning of the system overhaul process - allowing members to mark their applications with the Pending label to allow the staff team to quickly tell that said application was ready for review, or to mark an application that is still being worked on as a work in progress with the WIP label.
As a fair amount of time has passed since this system was introduced, some flaws have become apparent. Most notably, the WIP label has seen an immense amount of use, which would not be a problem… Except for the fact that the Character and Devil Fruit Approval boards are both filled to the brim with applications that have been marked WIP for months and months. As such, after a period of staff discussion, we have decided to instate a new rule: Each member can only have one application labelled WIP in each approval board at a time.
Of course, if we simply instated this rule, a number of members would be in violation - but just grandfathering in these old applications would mean the problem persists. As such, we are running a WIP Check-In!WIP Check-InIf you have Devil Fruits or character profiles marked with the WIP label, you will need to fill out the provided template in order to show the staff that you are still working on them. However, please be aware that you can only check in one WIP character profile and one WIP Devil Fruit.
Unlike other check-ins, all members will need to take part in this one, regardless of when they joined the site. If you don’t have any applications marked with the WIP label, then there is no reason to interact with this check-in. However, please be aware that all applications marked with the WIP label in the Character Approval and Devil Fruit Approval boards that have not been checked in by the end of this check-in will be locked and archived.Check-In FormIf you have applications with the WIP label, you will need to fill out the following form with the required information:[b]Member Name:[/b] (Enter your username here.)
[b]WIP Character:[/b] [a href="Replace this text, but not the quotation marks, with the link to the character profile"]WIP Character name here. You can use a placeholder name or title if the character does not have one yet.[/a]
[b]WIP Devil Fruit:[/b] [a href="Replace this text, but not the quotation marks, with the link to the Devil Fruit application"]WIP Devil Fruit name here. You can use a placeholder name if the character does not have one yet.[/a]
If you only have a character profile or a Devil Fruit, you can delete the section you are not using.WIP Check-In DeadlineThis check-in will run for two weeks, ending on June 3rd, 2020 at 11:59 PM (EST). Any character profiles or Devil Fruits with the WIP label that are not checked in by this time will be archived.
Once you have filled out the template, please post it in this thread in order to complete your check-in! Do note that this thread will be locked after the deadline, so make sure you get your applications checked in before then!
