Line 16: Line 16:


Unfortunately, those who cannot sim at least twice a week are unable to keep up with the story in an enjoyable fashion for either them or their fellow players. People tag them less, and then they feel they have less to contribute, and it becomes a vicious cycle. If your circumstances have changed, please let us know, and we can try to find a solution, which may include taking a '''leave of absence.'''

Another good guideline is to keep this in mind:
* If it's been 36 hours, and everyone else in your current scene has simmed, then you may sim again.
* If it's been 48 hours, and everyone else in your current scene has simmed, then you can sim again.
* If it's been 72 hours, regardless of if everyone in your current scene has simmed, you should sim again.
