Crystal Thread Assistants!

Site Update

Hey guys! The long-awaited Crystal Thread Assistants are officially working now--Please welcome Nyxie (#162), Falen (#922), and Esaria (#23447) as your new custom ~~overlords~~ helpers!

There were a lot of very good applications (far more than I expected!) which is part of the reason it took so long for me to get through these. Once we've got things running smoothly, I may be selecting a few more people.

Assistants mean that there will need to be some tweaks to the way the Crystal Thread is run. From the user side, not much will be different--as before, the Custom Updates thread will be used to post notifications when pages are done. However, I'd still encourage you to read over the first post of both the Updates thread and the Crystal Thread itself to make sure you understand everything.

The main difference from before is this: If you're posting a followup question (for example: "This was ruled as Gold, but I removed the wings. Is it Blue now?"), you need to include the name of the assistant you were working with previously at the top of your post so that the same person can also answer you followup question. This will help minimize confusion and ensure your rulings are as consistant as before.

Additionally, I'd like to give you a small rule update: From now on, we will be weighting pose change edits slightly more heavily. They're still allowed, but because they're so hard on the breeding artists, we'd like to discourage the more extreme ones.

That's it for now--be nice to my new assistants!
