Hey, ya'll. Currently, I feel like the rules we have for the AL Day Pass are just about perfect, I wanted to start out saying that. I just think that it could stand to be tweaked a bit, something I had meant to mention a long time ago while on staff but never got the chance to.
Currently, the rules look like this:
(You can join and make threads in the world of the living for three days. You can only thread with people your character has connections with. This inhibits most kinds of open threads. No DEs. Can also only join in recently made threads so you don't disturb the timeline of other people's and site plot (No joining in threads that happened way before you got your day pass and death). Price scales with current revival price, but people training under Afterlife Tutors can receive a free one. Can obtain Shoki in the world of the living and also gains PL bonus. People in hell need to be creative on how they get the pass and get out.)
While a lot of the above I agree with, there is really only a few things I think we should revisit if possible.
"You can only thread with people your character has connections with." - I feel like this part could be adjusted a bit to make it seem less restrictive to people who aren't currently "involved" with a ton of others.
My suggestion: You can open a thread ONLY on the planet you were killed on. This will allow some more "freedom" in a sense, but will at least handcuff the user in a way where they cannot make an open thread anywhere on the planet. People can join the thread that don't know the visitor from the AL, and could help mold some future relationships (good, bad, or indifferent) down the line. I would also suggest that if they want to RP with someone in the living world they have a deep connection with, perhaps that is the bypass to going to a planet they did not die on. Such as, a character dying on Earth but their mother (a PC character of course) is currently on Vegeta. Would give them access to that planet through that deep bond.
"People in hell need to be creative on how they get the pass and get out." - Again, sort of restrictive. I feel like everyone should have a unique way of getting out temporarily. Regardless of Heaven or Hell. I would leave this part out altogether.
Again, other than the above I think everything else checks out well enough for me.
Edit: Tagging admins so it doesn't get lost in the shoutbox.
