Security Update!

Last one for awhile, I promise!

SO YOU WANT TO JOIN SECURITY!

I'm just going to make official, I think, a policy that has been unofficial for awhile. If you want your pup on Security, talk to me privately -- IM, DM, e-mail, whatever -- and we'll see what we can work out ICly and OOCly.

Because Security IS an OOC time commitment. If people ask you for a Security pup in-thread or in-plot and you say yes, being able to finish that thread and that commitment is key. Also, as Security muns, our job is kind of to facilitate the story ideas of other people, to give them a satisfactory RP experience involving cells or labor or competence or incompetence or impartial or partial justice or a mix of all these! It's why we have so many different pup types and characters on Security, so that you -- yes YOU -- can find someone who will help you tell the story you want to!

It's also why we ask, in general, not to lean to heavily on Security being absent or not-good-enough, first because 'no godding', but also because chances are really excellent that someone asked for that particular experience and one of our lovely Security muns said 'okay!'.

((Oh hey, by the way, I just wanted to say to all the Security people--I know I have some characters who have a lot of Opinions about Security, but I hope you know that's all IC stuff. I realize that behind the scenes the Security players have a ton of work to do, including balancing the needs and requests of other players. It's a tough RP job, and I appreciate it!))

I have considered offering Jay for security but my time-zone makes life tricky.
