At no time has the staff said that you cannot run your own roleplays / Sagas with other players. What we have said is that you can't give yourself bonuses, items, zeni or any other kind of upgrade through those roleplays, nor can you write about killing other player characters or make your own character do something that is impossible or beyond his or her capabilities at present time. The reason why so many people are complaining is because they're hip deep in Sagas that require a lot of time on the staff's behalf because they're either fighting other player characters or involved in achieving some kind of upgrade or Dragonball quest. If you want to start a storyline where you and a bunch of other characters fight a made up villain or something, that's fine. We encourage you to do so. As long as it's in reason, there's no stopping you from roleplaying normally, fighting evil, interacting with other characters, blah, blah, blah. Feel free to make up your own Saga and run it, just don't expect to get anything phenomenal out of it stat wise or anything like that. Enjoy yourself.

But the problem is that its easy for a new member to lose interest and quit.
What Bardock said about being "hip deep" in a saga is absolutly true. That is what stems the lack of intrest, when you want to get things rolling, but a week passes before the plotline advances with any significance. Up until that point you can roleplay your heart out, but it doesn't get you anywhere, nobody wants to do anything so that whomever is in charge of that saga has a consistant to write from. Personally, I have a lack of intrest and an increasing lack of free time. I simply come here because it's in my favorites menu, and sometimes I have nothing better to do. But that is just me.
My point is that it seems nobody but a select few has actual intrest and drive to continue moving everything forward.
