how would y'all feel about a nonau with the following rules?

ic chats are actually ic. ooc chats are actually ooc.
no points are given in chats, but are given in rooms that allow for threads. more to track genuine ic activity and maybe to use for certain features (ex: getting more characters if you have, say, 15 points) than anything else.
social media rooms (if they exist) would be used for more than just ic texting and posts like "look at this pic of my muse" basically, and serve more of a purpose (depending on what kind of social media there is ig).
word/sentence/character limits on posts that are threads.
more emphasis on participant-led events/activities.

i'm not asking if it would work and i'm definitely not making one, but i would like to know your general thoughts on something like this. also would like to know if an rp like this currently exists or is in the works. i know some have been made like this in the past, but as far as i know, current nonaus aren't like this.

the concept is nice but people always bend rules when rps have had similar guidelines in the past. people also base opinions on activity when joining nonau rps so the lack of points would probably turn people off. i think chat rooms are too far gone for people to ever go back to keeping things 100% ic unfortunately. to pull it off you'd need a good admin lineup who helps enforce (hopefully not overbearing) or accept low member count since most wouldn't want to adhere to the rules.

I'd be much more happy with ic being mostly ic instead of whatever the current scenario is but usually they don't last and you'll be a loner if you try to don't mingle. The sense of dread that follows idols and the worries? Yeah. I'd kill for a non-au that follows irl mechanism

I’d say good luck with enforcing those rules XD
especially the ic and ooc part it is literally what every admin says in the rules, but not the rps reality

kinda like a non au that's actually non au ??
you'd really have to keep track a lot since people are just so used to interact ooc in ic rooms
that and all the rest sounds great though so my general thoughts are go for it!
