Changeling? Transformer? - Android-18 - 01-07-2005
I don't think you are, I think you are considered human (we say human because you have no race, so you'd get human power ups) I think the reason is that we have all the Buu's as character, otherwise I do think you would be a transformer.

Did you not see what 18 said in parenthesis?

A better word is non-transformer. Thats what you are. Back then we had only one Buu, mainly, but now we have three different ones so you are a non-transformer. You will get non-transformer power ups and you cannot transform naturally like Zarbon.
And in relations to Furiza "agreeing" with the Zarbon way--he was Zarbon back then, so I'm sure he was being plenty biased.

Thats the original Buu. hes kid Buu. Well ok Actually kid buu is original in truth but from a reality perspective its far buu.
Hmm this makes me wonder.........what are Arlians and such considered to be?
Thats beacuse Cell was made the same way as other androids, but more geneticly then mechanicly. Thats why we call him a bio-android

Arlians are ust a alien race with no transformations, I believe. Don't argue with the way staff has it, it has been working fine and it does not have to be exactly like the show. If staff, as far as I know, think something is wrong, then they try to fix it.
The end.

Listen Buu, That was on October a year ago (prolly more). We had like NO other Buu's, and it was the first time it came up. He didn't RP and be creative and try to transform, it was really just something we, the staff, threw out and never really decided on. Now that you now bring it up, I'm going to just say that unless the Admin's disagree, you are a Non-Transformer. Now is that such a bad thing? I hardly think so. All power ups are equal. If it tickles your fancy then you can go right ahead and transform when you use Spiritken and all the other Non-transformer power ups, it's really your call on that. Don't argue with us over some searched thread that was made a very long time ago.
About Cell. He can only "transform" if he absorbs the androids, and that he did. It IS transforming, for him, whether you like it or not. It's been that way for a LONG time, as with many other "changelings".
Anyway, please don't argue over something so stupid.

yes staff has made sure everybody has equal chances. Look at me, im a non-transformer and Im doing fine. I have Spiritken which finnaly opened more options for me. You just have to do one thing to become stronger.....work. Work your brain off. get good ideas. It only takes that.....and practicing writing.

But spiritken is down, so what do we now? Now non-transformers have to die to get Kaioken. I used to have Spiritken but that was when i was Kid Buu back in June. But I agree with 18, I have nothing else to say.
Why do you HAVE to go for a power-up? Spiritken is down BECAUSE all you n00bs go STRAIGHT for it.
Jeez, do a personal saga or something, or a quest. Screw power-ups.
And as 18 said on Cell. Cell had to absorb 17 and 18, which he did.
Changeling? Transformer? - Android-18 - 01-08-2005
All we're saying is that too many people shoot for power ups as soon as they can when (in my opinion) they should be surprise things. Like Burter said, just forget about power ups, RP and have fun, develope your character, join a staff saga when one starts and just do your best.

-_-
Get a clue; of course people are going to go straight for power up's when half the people on the rpg already have some. It's not like the entire series revolved around the main characters getting stronger so they could fight new villians or just because they were martial artists.
You guys can't even talk, both of you have power ups so it's easy to go "Oh I don't think it's that important :O". Why don't you give up your power ups if it's so much fun without them.

Me, give up my power up?
Because from my P.O.V I earned it fair and square, plus it brings back memories of when I'd only just started. I wasn't talking about power-up's in particular. I mean, Rping ability comes into it mostly. I don't want to argue about Power because it's not something I have a good reputation over but if there's something I've learn't it's, Power isn't everything.
Sure power isn't everything, but it shouldn't matter if a character wants to get stronger. That was the basic drive of almost every damn character in DB. Cell wanted to get stronger, Goku wanted to get stronger, Vejita wanted to get stronger, etc. It's completely inane for us to go "OMG Stfu n00b u shuldn't only try get strong" when we are talking about a DB rpg.
Edit: Essentially it shouldn't matter what a characters motivation is, as long as they are motivated and they actually put in the work to get a power up.

I suppose, but I'm not telling anyone to S.T.F.U though. Anyone is entitled to their opinion as far as I'm concerned and that was basically my opinion. I just think, It would be more logic to rp as best you can and enjoy yourself instead of shitting yourself for a power-up everytime you hear it's available and thinking your gonna whip the top half of the KI list through gaining one power-up. I gained a power up within a couple of weeks of being here. Dont ask why? Mostly C.D. At the end of the day, it's up to you wether or not you want to go for a power up or not. But you shouldn't jump straight for them thinking it is the only god damn thing that's important in the whole RPG.
EDIT: I'm going to bed...2.00 PM over here., Typical of me to stay up this late. Night all.
I am not really talking about you, but more like 18 and Burter. Anyway, there should be nothing wrong with a character wanting to become the strongest fighter in the universe, especially in an RPG based off a show where that was essentially the goal of nearly half the characters in it. That's what people are going to expect when coming to a DB RPG, because that's the allure of every fighting anime. It's true that you should have character development, but we shouldn't be condemning people simply because they want to be the strongest character there is, as long as the work for it

Don't give him too much credit. He's had far too long to figure out what he wants to say.
=P
Anyway, the moral of the story is: Fat/Super/Kid Buu = non-transformer.
Changeling? Transformer? - Abel - 01-08-2005
Stop arguing with staff. This should have been clear but Kid Buu had to keep pushing at it.
It doesn't matter. I think this RPG is based on RPing, power REALLY isn't everything unless you are sparring/fighting somebody. Look at me, I havn't had a power up forever and all the people that have joined after me basically do, though. I just RPed on Earth this whole time and had fun RPing with people, not using power ups. God I hate people.

Buu = non transformer.
