The effect is still generally the same, you post HERE when you need to go on a hiatus. RP requirements will not exist while you are on this hiatus.
But on the same token, any RP you do will NOT count towards a growth. If you're on hiatus, you shouldn't be RPing anyways.
When you are done with your hiatus, come post here AGAIN (do not edit, like before) that you've returned.
Do NOT delete any posts.
I'll be using these to keep dates on when you went on hiatus, and when you returned, to both make sure the RP is valid but ALSO to work the 6-month rule around that. See, this can benifit you too.
From now on, these months of hiatus will not count against you rule-wise. But you also can't really do anything while on them. I think this is a fair and reasonable trade off. :3
To post your Hiatus:
Just copy and paste the following form and fill it out.
[color=red][b]I'm on Hiatus until further notice[/b]
[b]Username[/b]
[b]Child(ren):[/b]
[b]I've read and understand the conditions listed in the first post[/b] Yes or No[/color]
[b]Username[/b]
[b]Child(ren):[/b]
[b]I've read and understand the conditions listed in the first post[/b] Yes or No[/color]
To post your return:
Copy and paste the following form and fill it out.
[color=green][b]I am back from my hiatus![/b]
[b]Username[/b]
[b]Child(ren):[/b][/color]
[b]Username[/b]
[b]Child(ren):[/b][/color]
Why the forms?
People often like to explain why they're on hiatus, or how long they'll be gone. You don't have to! And don't tell us how long you'll be gone, its nice and all but... You're on hiatus until you post your return, so how long you're going to be gone won't take away your hiatus even when it goes past that time.
That aside, the colors make it easy to recognize what you're posting.
The user name is in case you change yours for one reason or another. Mostly there for formalities...
The child or children is for keeping records easily~ That way we know which kids are off the list to be checked. :3
"I've read and understand the conditions listed in the first post":
This is just to make sure you know that your RPs won't count, that you know to post your return, and so on. If you put "no" please explain what you don't understand so that I can PM you further information. Your hiatus will still count, but we'll be keeping in contact with you until you understand the conditions. :3
NOTE: This does NOT count for teachers! Teachers must post their hiatus in the correct post in the registration center.
