PREPARE FOR TL;DR!

augh, I'm so bad at this but I'll give it a shot!
I've been around for about eight months now I think and I think it's a testimony to the game when you consider that this is the longest I've been in one place for years, and since RPing on LJ (what can I say, I'm kind of a flake!) the people are just about the nicest, most cooperative group I've ever had the pleasure of playing with. for awful, slow taggers like me, the amount of backlogging that everyone is willing to do is just so nice.
applications run from easy-medium now I think, but mods have switched it to e-mail apps so you can't tell which needed revisions, etc. app cycles recently got changed to a monthly app cycle, and you're likely to be dropped in with 10+ other characters each round. the transition from a smallish game to a fairly bustling game has hit some of the older players hard, but they're slowly adjusting. applications close during large events so as to not cause all-around confusion so if you're planning to app, I'd make it this cycle before July 15th.

Thanks for answering! I just have a few smaller questions:
* The character I'm considering joining with is a floating, spherical robot that's about the size of a beach ball. Is that allowed? * In practice, how easy is it to set up a meister/weapon couple (between characters of different fandoms, in particular)? * Soul Eater is one of the manga/anime series that I'm interested in but has been pushed to the bottom of the reading list due to my personal procrastination. Are there any spoilers to the plot of the series in the setting of the game?
hmm, I'd say medium, not quuuuuite on the fast end yet. there're maybe 6-8 posts to the main comm per day and the occasional open log. I'd expect this to rise pretty significantly during events, since that's been the trend in the past!
it's pretty easy to keep up with, imo. if you like really fast, bustling places then it's probably not your speed (ha!) just yet. but if you're an awfully slow tagger like I am, then it's a nice fit (and like I've said, people are so good about backlogging.)
as for comment counts, it's become a little less common, but numbers used to reach in the hundreds in one post quite regularly. I only say it's less common because it's become so hard for people to tag every new character, but people definitely do get a lot of comments to their entries!
