Post your name, along with what character(s) you play.
If you want, specify particular areas you would like feedback on! (It's okay to ask for just general feedback!)
Indicate whether or not you're okay with anonymous feedback. (It's totally cool if you don't.) You can also post links to your character's personal HMD if you'd prefer comments there.
Reply to other people telling them how you think they are doing.
Be polite and objective! If someone says they're cool with anonymous crit, that is not an invitation to be unfriendly. No one likes a Diamond Tiara! If you have something negative to say about somebody else's playing, make your points politely and suggest ways to improve. To give an example:
X - Unhelpful Diamond Tiara - "Jeez, Terri, can you learn to type? You've got about a billion typos in your posts!"
O - Helpful Not Diamond Tiara - "Hi, Terri, I noticed you have a number of typos in your posts. Something you might want to do is give your posts that one last look-over before hitting submit. It would really help with readability!"
?????
PROFIT
You don't have to post your own characters to give other people feedback! You don't have to post your characters at all if you don't want to. It is 100% OPTIONAL. If you do post, we would encourage you to give feedback to at least one other person!

I've been trying my best to not put Tails through too much bad things and I think I've finally gotten into the tagging groove with Coco. I have been told that I don't have Tails act like his age enough (he's 16, soon to be 17 in November), so I will try to fix that.
But other than that, feel free to give me any more crit for the both of them. Anon is fine with me.
I can see your enthusiasm in how you play your characters, and that's a really great thing! I have greatly appreciated how you've taken the time to welcome me and interact with me over plurk.
As far as your playing is fine, but I sometimes feel a bit disconnected to Tails. I've given this matter some thought and the biggest reason that came to mind was the variety and difference of his icons. The range of emotional expressions he has is very similar -- I think in part because they draw from the same resource? For me, this creates a bit of sameness as talks from response to response with mostly the same pose and small differences in eye openness and mouth position. They're like "Tails emoticons." Language, as I am sure you are aware, is conveyed with the body as well as their words.
Coco, by contrast, has a lot more variety of mannerisms and positions. Compare this icon with most of Tails' -- she speaks more of how she is feeling in how she expresses herself. I think that were you to revamp your icons with more expressive ones, even if they weren't ponies, I think you'd see a noticeable difference in how he portrays and carries himself.
Well a lot of is because I can't exactly draw and I don't have money to get some drawn for me. Also, I don't have money for more icon space so I can add normal Tails icons.
The thing with Tails' account is that it was originally an icon mule for an event in his other game and I mostly recycled the account for this game.
So I'm sorry, but there's not much I can do about that.

That friend may even be considerate enough to provide artist sources. ;)
The only problem is you may need to drop a few of your icons for the new ones.

That depends on which ones, but alright
I do want to keep the facepalming icon unless there's a replacement though.
