-Roleplay Reviews are periodic checks to see if a plot's information is current and correct, and that the plot and all of its players are still actually active. Usually this consists of a **self-review** by the plot's Game Master, who is provided by the staff with a short checklist of questions and/or tasks. In the past this was referred to as a "plot audit." Roleplay views can also come in the form of **buddy reviews**, where GMs are assigned a buddy and they review each other's plots.+Roleplay Reviews are periodic checks to see if a plot's information is current and correct, and that the plot and all of its players are still actually active.
