Adoptable Character F.A.Q.
Below is a generally collected series of questions and answers following the topic of Adoptable Characters on Marvel Universe: The Saga of 616
Q: How long does it take for an Accepted Canon Character to become an Adoptable Character?
A: Three weeks of consistent inactivity, without notice, will result in mandatory adoptable status of the said character. If the character’s registered member account exceeds three weeks from the time of the account’s Last Login Date, the character will be declared Adoptable.
Q: When can I audition for an Adoptable Character?
A: As long as the desired character remains in the Adoptable Characters section, it can be auditioned for.
Q: My character went into the Adoptable Characters section, can I retrieve my character?
A: Yes. Any returning member can retrieve any character of theirs that has been relocated to the Adoptable Characters section. To retrieve the desired character, members must PM a request to a Marvel Universe : The Saga of 616 administrator where the profile will be restored to the Accepted Canon Characters section.
Q: My character went into the Adoptable Characters section but was claimed by another member, can I retrieve my character?
A: No. All claim over the said Adoptable Canon Character in question is void once it has reached inactivity status. It may be claimed by whoever successfully re-auditions for the character. Members have the right to wait until the character becomes adoptable once more to adopt it. No re-audition will be required if a character is adopted by a member who has previously claimed the said character at any point in time. Claim over the character may be privately and reasonable discussed between both members through PMs, but until otherwise the rightful claim belongs to whoever recently successfully adopted for the character.
Q: I have claimed too many Canon Characters on this board, can I put some up for Adoption?
A: Yes. Members may request as many or as little characters of theirs to receive adoptable status. Members may not request characters for adoption that are claimed by other members.
Q: I put one of my Canon Characters up for Adoption, what can I do with them now?
A: Members who request Adoptable Character status with their characters may nullify the said character’s adoptable status as long as they were not successfully re-auditioned for and claimed by another member. Under given circumstances, members may still remain active under their Adoptable Character until they are adopted by another member. This serves only to move along certain storylines retaining the character as so not to halt other members that were participating with the adoptable character.
Q: How do I claim an Adoptable Character?
A: Members seeking to claim an Adoptable Character must successfully re-audition for the desired character under the same acceptance procedure through administrative approval. Only then, after an approved re-audition, may the member repost a new profile for the Adoptable Character. After an administrator approves the new profile, the Adoptable Character becomes officially claimed by the new member. The old Adoptable Character profile will be archived for safe keeping and removed from the Adoptable Character section while moving the new profile into the Accepted Canon Characters section.
