[Help] Old person here
#1
Ok, so for about a year or so, I have been inactive. I had completely dropped rping for the longest time, then I got back into it. Is there a way for a complete overhaul on me, like changing everything including the planet? I had completely forgotten my old character, and no longer wish to play him, nor the planet he is on.

I even wrote out a new character, which has my complete attention over whatever it was I was.

From the rules:
Switching Characters

Fact of life: everybody thinks about it sooner or later. We have a firm “one-size-fits-all” policy about switching characters. If for whatever reason you are unhappy with your current character and would like to switch, you are free to do so. Keep in mind, there is a procedure, and there is a penalty.

First of all, make sure it’s completely and 100% what you want. Get a character you can see yourself going the distance with. All switches are dealt with in the Updates forum.

When you switch, everything is wiped, and your stats are reset. This means that you lose all current items, zeni, Abilities, Techniques, and Custom Techniques. You must choose new percentages for your stats, and your Combat Ability is halved. You also pick a new Trait, new Profession, and two new Abilities to start with. A new Character Bio will also be needed after the switch. The only thing you’re allowed to keep is any unspent XP you have accumulated, so you won’t be starting completely from scratch. Essentially, treat a switch as a new join application, minus the role-play sample.

It’s that simple. You don’t need to include a reason, there are no time limits, and no caps on how many times you can switch, so long as you are willing to pay each time you do so. This freedom should be exercised with thought and consideration. There will be no leniency if you “change your mind.” Once a switch request is put through, it will not be reversed, and a new switch must occur after the fact for any alteration.

Here are some things to remember about switching:

You are not allowed to switch to a custom character or NPC that was used by someone else.
Players returning to activity after an extended break may pick up their previous character with no penalty. If they are, however, choosing a completely new character, it counts as a switch.
When you switch, you stay in the same location you are currently at.
Switching does revive you. If your previous character was dead, your new one will be brought back to the realm of the living.

Yeah, I went and read that again after posting this. Then I went to look at my profile's old posts, and my god it has been almost three years since my last post, but that wasn't what caught my eye.

Ok, nevermind, I found out what planet I am on. I'm happy I was on Earth, which is convenient since I wanted to be there. Damn... >.>;; I need to quit dying on activity.
