So um. I've never felt like I had to give crit to a characterisation where almost nothing (in my opinion. I'm sure there's somone out there who would beg to differ) was done right.
And it's kind of occurred to me that apparently there's this thing in the majority of LJ RP that if you're not actually in the RP, you can't give crit. No, no one has bitten my face off from me giving cit (mostly because I usually give crit for people in TST) but skimming threads through RP!S has given the impression there's this invisible rule about having to be in a game to give crit.
I don't the logic behind that at all.
While yes, sometimes not having context may make some characters' actions seem rather OOC, that doesn't necessarily mean crit from outside the game is false and unfounded. Doesn't really make sense to me for outside crit to get worked up over, when outside praise is perfectly okay.
That said. I have no idea how and where to start to give that crit. And how to do it tactfully and in a constructive manner. Which is probably a first.
