Greetings space friends,
Today you will proceed beyond a rubicon - for you have discovered my OC rating thread. Back from the depths of a now-deceased website, after countless hours of roleplay on many different characters and accounts, I am back 5 years later to tell you how shit both your OC and your waifu are.
So how it works is simple.
Step 1: Go to https://goo.gl/forms/4sPAh6KUS4Gz9bmf2 and fill out the form with all relevant details. Yes I did omit Alicorn as a species type. This was deliberate. Alicorn OCs are automatically shit-tier.
Step 2: Wait for 3-5 business days for me to review your submission.
Step 3: Your submission will be reposted to this thread, along with my notes and thoughts following my established criteria.
Why am I tying it to a form, do you ask? Well, if someone is suggesting an OC that they've just created or are working on, I would like to keep who it belongs to private. This will keep people from feeling publicly shamed. If you're submitting an OC that's already known by the community - then you know full well what you're doing.
Rating methodology:
Each question in the form asks for specific information. This information is judged both individually, and as part of the whole. Each individual category is rated on a 5 point scale. This scale is:
1. No positive qualities
2. Sporatic positive qualities - overall negative
3. Both positive and negative qualities. Overall neutral
4. Negative qualities taint an otherwise positive thought.
5. Majority positive qualities - no major negative qalities.
The categories that are rated using this system are:
Physical Attributes (Appearance)
Psychological Attributes (Personality)
Historical Attributes (Story)
Unity (How well the attributes compliment each other)
After all the categories have been rated, an overall score will be administered. This overall score is out of 28. 5 points are allocated per category. An additional point is allocated to each category which has a score of 5. Up to an additional 4 points are added meritoriously for interesting, high quality, high effort characteristics of the character.
Overall Score Ranges:
4-8: Requires immediate incineration
9-12: Needs an overhaul, but some fundamental details can be recycled.
13-17: Good details, needs some help around the edges
18-22: Great details, needs that last piece to make it extraordinary
23-24: Amazing!
25+: God-tier
Disclaimer:
I reserve the right to be sarcastic as fuck during the reviewing process. I also lack morals and impulse control, so take that as you will. Don't wanna get flamed? Don't submit bad characters. Submitting characters is only anonymous to me or anyone who reads this thread if they haven't seen your character before.

Name: Phoebe Verdier
Age: 28
Occupation: Fashion Model/Supermodel
Species: Pegasus
Height: 6'0 on all fours.
Weight: Freakishly light for a 6'0 horse (like 120 IBS or something iunno)
Appearance: She is tall and slender with a long platinum blonde mane and tail. She has a pure white coat that is kept well groomed.
Personality: She is like a little angel (:U) ! She is weirdly innocent, which ponies find to be a little odd considering she is a model. She likes to hang out with friends and is always happy to talk to anypony who needs talking to! However, from all of this, she can sometimes still be oblivious to things that other ponies find obvious. I suppose there are always flaws in ponies, no matter who they are.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Backstory: Phoebe was born in an upper class family in Manehatten. Her mother was a former model, while her father was a businesspony who ran a refinery business. She grew up with two other older brothers who liked to torment their little sister all the time. Her mother and father were very adamant about their education, which led them all to eventually attend the prestigious Canterlot University. Already securing a modeling gig thanks to the kind words of her mother, Phoebe did not really take school too seriously, considering she already had her career set. She eventually earned a literature degree, which didn't do anything besides give her a check box on job resume's showing she had a college degree. With her regal colors and unusual body type, Phoebe had no issue moving up the ranks in the fashion world. Being a happy-go-lucky kind of mare, she was loved by her employers who appreciated the upbeat personality in a career that could be quite dull. Despite earning money from modeling, and having a trust fund from her father, she is very modest when around others, not mentioning anything about her living standards, as she wished not to offend anybody. You can usually find Phoebe trotting around the city grocery shopping, going to parks to relax, and in her home in the suburbs of Manehatten.
