First off, just in case, to clarify, threads don't need to include any of the special content to be counted for Activity Bonus Points. The points are still counted per comment as usual.
The special content, including the 'romantic intent' aspect, is for +50 per 10 comments. The reason there are four different types of ways to gain these lump sum bonuses is specifically so that the game is not heavily weighted to players who wish to play slice-of-life vs. involve themselves in the plot. The 'business/party mingle' and 'romantic intent' side of things is intended to benefit players who choose slice-of-life, and the 'monster fighting' and 'exploration' are intended to benefit players who choose to get involved in the plottier side of things.
I included all four in an attempt to cater to as many characters as possible, with full awareness that all four would not cater to every character, if that makes sense? So just as a character who is not shippable for any reason might not benefit from 'romantic intent' there are other characters who may not be able to (or do not by player choice) fight, and couldn't benefit from 'monster fighting.'
Hopefully this explains it a little better. Let me know if I need to clarify anything else!
