Send More Kudos!

[Gimfalisette]

And staff kudos, I never know who to thank  .

With staff kudos, just put in, "Whoever animated the NPC bartender at the Gaj on Saturday the 12th" or "Whoever ran the imm stuff for the Kadius RPT on the 3rd" or etc. They'll figure it out.

[The7DeadlyVenomz]

I guess I better start sending out kudoes too.

[Dalmeth]

I have not sent any lately, I need to do that sometime, I am really enjoying playing my character right now, more than any character as of late. And staff kudos, I never know who to thank  .

Send a general kudos or use a reference to the event.

[Vessol]

Alright I will defiantly have to send a kudos to a recent event a week or so ago. Thanks for the help.

[Rindan]

I am not staff, so take what I saw with a grain of salt, but you should realize that the staff has to sort and send all these kudos.  They have to match names and sdescs to to accounts and bang off an e-mail.  I am not saying don't send kudos, but you are likely to make someone grumpy if they find 100 kudos that need to be sent out in the morning with stuff like "that emote when you smoked that spice was pretty good".  I guess what I am saying is that you are making work for someone else, so if you are going to send one off to someone who isn't staff, maybe you should make sure it is worth while.  I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade, just realize that it takes a someone a little work to push these things through.

I'll chime in here to say that kudos shouldn't be sent for small stuff. The only thing worse than no kudos would be kudosaturation. I want kudos to continue to mean something.

[Maybe42or54]

Agreed. Don't send Kudos just to send Kudos. That would ensure that they will always have a backing when you send them.

[Gimfalisette]

Oh please, people. Some of you have never sent any, or send like 2 a year. The point is, SEND MORE THAN THAT. Sheesh.

[Ghost]

Some of you have never sent any, or send like 2 a year.

and how do you know that?

HUH?!  DATA QUEEN?!?!?!

• Ghost - 2 kudos sent since 2005, not counting the last week
• Gimfalisette - 11 kudos sent since 2005, not counting the last week

[Only He Stands There]

ghost gave me kudos.

[Mood]

Kudos make me blush and giggle in a school girlish kind of way.

I stole one of those all-seeing eye things (palantir or something? whatever) from SoI. So I KNOW.

[staggerlee]

I surely don't think it hurts to send Kudos.
At very, very worst you're making someone feel better about their play.

Don't lie, but if you rp semi regularly with someone and enjoy it, rarely rp with someone but saw them participate in a really cool scene, or whatever, tell them why. Hell, let them know if you love their description.   Speaking as  a fairly new player here: How else are we supposed to know when something we're doing is right?

Make sure you're honest and that you use their name and sdesc and I'm sure the hassle the imms receive will be worth the benefit of actually making someone else feel good about their rp.  I mean, they put the tool in for a reason.  And their posts in the past have always encouraged, not discouraged kudos sending.  I don't think "excessively positive feedback" is a big problem for the community.  This isn't an economy, the influx of nice comments isn't going to flood the market and devalue them people!

Every time I've received one I've hit the mud with a renewed vigor, just knowing someone enjoyed rping with me. 

And I'm going to try to find excuses to send a bunch more, just to spite all you people.   

[aruna]

I got a kudos once, and it was deeeelightful.

I'm ashamed to admit I've never given back. Sending en masse.

[Morfeus]

I agree. Send more kudos. Kudos are nice. Kudos are cool. And if you have a reason to send one - do it. IMMs would not give us a tool to send them in if they didn't mean us to...well...send them. 

[Barzalene]

I believe that Gimf sent me kudos but I think she doesn't know it! Ha!

[Gimfalisette]

I believe that Gimf sent me kudos but I think she doesn't know it! Ha!

It's entirely possible I did. Just because I wanted one of your characters dead doesn't mean I don't like you as a player

[Barzalene]

In fact, if you didn't like me as a player, you probably wouldn't have cared enough to kill my pc.

They say imitation is the highest form of flattery, but that's just cause it's in real life it's so hard to enjoy your own murder.

But still, Ha!

[RogueGunslinger]

Kudos are awesome! Just got my first one. Thanks whoever you are. They make you really feel appreciated, like your character actually means something. And it lets you know if you are playing decently or at least seem like you are trying to. Even if you do typo every freaking emote say and tell, like I do.

[Cutthroat]

Yeah, I just got a kudos too and I feel guilty I don't send out many, even to those who deserve it. I'm going to send them sometime, I swear 

[brytta.leofa]

You made my day, person. Thanks.  (Consider this a "bump." )

[Malken]

I'm still waiting for my well-deserved kudos. *glares* 

[Desertman]

I'm still waiting for my well-deserved kudos. *glares* 

Kudoes...I did like your most recent character....My character LOVED to hate him...But I as a player truly appreciated having him around for my character to hate. lol

I can appreciate a good antagonist for my PC's, they make them worth playing.

[rufus]

I haven't gotten kudos in a year.
I wonder if that's a bad thing...
