While as a whole the Constructs does not concern itself with superficial trappings, we as a community should honor and acknowledge those of us within our number who excel. To this effect, I am very proud to put to words the regulations, rules, and forms for the implementation of both our Member and Roleplay of the Month Awards!
Members of the Month (MotM) are members of our forum that deserve distinction, to be saluted for tremendous writing, a truly amazing attitude, generous contributions of their time and resources to helping out the Constructs as a whole, or just being a wonderful person. Because of them, we are what we are, and we could never hope to be half of it without them.
Roleplays of the Month (RPotM) are RPs that our members have found to be top shelf for one reason or another - a dynamic and engaging setting, truly mesmerizing characters, a long-standing staple of the forum, or simply just damn good fun. Just like our MotM, the Constructs couldn't hope to be a shadow of what it is, were it not for these tremendous stories.
Below can be found regulations, rules, and nomination forms.
