LIFE SUPPORT PSA
Hi guys!
Because of RL time constraints placed on your leaders, starting next week, Life Support meetings will be held Tuesday (with each post open to new threads through Wednesday) and will be held every other week instead of every week, as they have been.
There will be an IC note of this made as well, shortly.
Also, for new muns and people who just haven't been paying attention to this particular corner of the RP, here's a little FAQ-type-thingy, with questions in the order of Ven thinking them up:
1. What is Life Support?
Life Support is a support group for people dealing with life (or afterlife). Any kind of life, from any time, any world, rich or poor, Bound or not, dead or alive. Every meeting is set up as a circle of chairs in the Bar, with (GUARANTEED 100% SAFE) free food and beverages (and sometimes other things!) offered on a nearby table, and a sign explaining that everyone is welcome and the food and drink are free and safe.
2. Where did this idea come from?
Life Support is RENT-canon, and was once run by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
whychoosefear, both canonically and in the bar. Miniver and Guppy resurrected the idea.
3. Who is welcome to these meetings?
Everyone. No, really. Everyone.
4. Does my character have to have major issues/angst to come?
NO. When we say anyone can come, we mean anyone. No one is expected to talk about whatever IC "issues" you might have -- it's just an option you're welcome to take, and no one will ever pressure you for being "angsty" at one of these meetings. We welcome people to threadhop, play therapist for pups who DO have issues, take this as an opportunity for a free meal and a chance to meet new people. A lot of really incredible, complex, deep, FUN IC and OOC relationships have resulted from characters just showing up to mooch off the free stuff. The one thing we ask, IC and OOC, is that nothing discussed in Life Support is discussed OUTSIDE Life Support without permission of the muns involved. We're not going to actually keep track of this -- it's just we think it'd be nice if pups had a place where they can go and angst about anything and know it isn't going to be spread around.
5. Who runs this thing?
IC, group leaders are Guppy Sandhu (guppy_sandhu) and Miniver Cheevy (cheevy). OOC, leaders can be reached over AIM as "Guppymun" and "Ven badger."
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? Post here. ^^ We'll answere ASAP.

My AIM sn doesn't have a capital letter, if it's case sensitive, which I wasn't sure.
