I'd have to disagree back. Tagging is a big deal, but being IC is just as much of a big deal. I know I personally don't want to have to deal with getting huge threads on an HMD because Katniss is being too social. I'm sure there are other people who feel the same about their various characters. She's not comfortable with social interaction, is not good at it, and that is blatantly stated canon information. Plenty of character development can occur without getting new CR every single month, and for some characters, they thrive better without being forced into unwanted social interactions just so a player can make an AC requirement.

I'm not saying it's a big deal - I've got one character who would tag everyone ever just for the sake of being able to be in charge or get her opinion across to every person she ever spoke to. But there are other characters for whom it would simply be blatantly OOC and holding a requirement that doesn't cover every character type is a little bit steep if that person is consistently tagging regardless of who it's with. I'm not saying the rule is bad on the whole, either. Wanting at least one piece of cross-canon activity per month is perfectly reasonable. The part I find unreasonable and far too subjective toward social characters would be requiring that it be different cross-canon activity every single month.

And it may be that the rule itself doesn't require new cross-canon CR activity every month, either. Still waiting on an answer from a mod on that one.
