One complaint that would involve me directly would be, and I'm paraphrasing here, that there is too much information and not enough guidance in the Character Submission Guidelines thread. It is arduous to read through and leaves the reader confused. Is that a fair assessment of the problem?

...

Elephant in the room:

The major problem is that there isn't a staff member with administrative access to and interest in taking the lead in developing this subforum.

I only have access to administrate the Character Submission sub-sub-forum. I'm not as rigorous as I probably should be in that regard and sometimes I get busy and a few days go by before I review anything. My view is that if a character isn't too over the top and includes sufficient information to interact with and assess, that's good enough. That means some submissions end up violating the tier/influence system, but that system is intended to be a guide rather than a rule. Moreover, I've extended the offer repeatedly for people to offer some ideas on how to improve it. I don't think I've gotten any positive feedback on that front -- only negative feedback, which doesn't help me make it better and just tells me what people dislike.

Antioch

@Diexsmiling Other than the rail gun, I'm OK with this character. For the rail gun, I think the power requirements should be outlined a bit more. Is it the type we might find on a battleship, which can launch a ton of metal several miles at 100x the speed of sound or something smaller? How many megajoules does it consume relative to Antioch's power output? These are things I think could be elucidated a bit more on a mechanical character.
