HIATUS
Well. Before you know it, life happened. And just when life started getting easier.
So if you need a small break from the game, comment here and we will know you're on a tiny break from here, and heading back into the wild wilderness that is real-life. Careful, there are bears out there.
Maximum allowable time you can call hiatus is no more than three weeks. Nifty thing is that you're exempt from activity check requirements during this time. But if you think it'll be longer than that, go and check with the moderator and see what they say about it. Beware of possible inspirational speeches if you do.
Just to let us all know you're poofing for a bit (because we will worry, despite your claims otherwise), it'd be great if you did a short-and-sweet hiatus notice in the OOC community (collaroscopy), too.
Though, if you need a "slow-atus" (this is the same as a hiatus, but you'll be very slow in commenting/logging), same requirements applies as you requesting regular hiatus. Thing is, you'll still be needed to meet your activity check. But it'll just be one post instead of two. We're considerate like that.
