SCENARIO 1 and words i hope words are ok ;;;;;;

I've not done any game modding in a very long time so I'm very, very behind on the times and I wholly respect you guys for the work you put into this game because it's not something I have had the energy to do in several years, but if I may make a suggestion, it is this: in addition to, or perhaps instead of a hard cap, integrate a suitability segment into your application. This not only gives players of younger characters a chance to explain why their character could be suited for the game, but also gives you all a chance to designate adults who are also not suitable for the game.

I had messaged the moderation account after this last app session and understand that you don't communicate about applications with people other than the applicant, but the reason you declined one application for a young character should have resulted in you declining not only my other friend's application, but my own as well. A character being under the age of 18 does not mean they cannot behave maturely. Maybe realism is the object of the age cap, because in real life being over 18 means whether you're an immature brat with a I Want To Speak To Your Manager haircut or a civilized human being means you get treated like an adult, but when in roleplay where everyone is here to have a good time, it isn't fair to allow adults who won't take a situation seriously when someone under the conceptual age of "adult" would potentially take it much moreso.

Beyond that, I really do hope things pan out well for the game, I've been enjoying the premise and most everything very much, I just hope you all as a moderation team will seek to communicate better with your player base. I know it's hard to have a desire and a direction for a game and have things slide out of that direction, but if you want things to 100% go exactly like how you set it up, you need to run a musebox, not a public game where players and characters will impact the direction things go. You can't ask the public to participate in something and not be allowed to change the way milestones are reached, you'll end up with... This mess. But I really sincerely hope you guys get some rest from all this discourse, because this game has thusfar been very well-run and fun to play in. <3
