I don't remember who but I recall joining on the old Chubbs as Turles and about two months in I was wondering what would I have to do besides get the requirements and write some good(to me) rps to gain that almighty blonde haired transformation for my character.
Out of curiousity I pmed a member, can't remember which but he was a saiyan or half-saiyan and had managed to get SSJ. I asked him how long and how did he get it...and I think he said about a year and a half. Well I was pretty blown away.
'A year and a half...to get SSJ. Man shit. Yall go fuck yerselves on that bullshit.' is what I thought at the time. Then I was thinking 'Shit I will just write and hope I get it. If I don't I'll just switch to a human character, get Spiritken, get killed hope I get to train with King Kai and just go for broke on gaining Kaioken.'.
Now I have that same mentality, the latter that is. While that mindset does slightly overshadow my first thought when I found out how long it had taken someone to gain the most popular powerup of them all; I still feel as though waiting for someone on staff or otherwise to say 'We don't see you earning SSJ right now...try again next Saga.' or something like that won't sit too well with every newer member.
A first tier gained via XP, CA or whatever...that would be neat. Or just make the requirements/stats for it pretty high as well as gaining said transformation via rp(whether personal/quest or if the member chooses to a Saga).
As far as the folks who currently have them, from my P.O.V you worked for them. Keep them. Time and effort put into writing on a site that gives you personal pleasure and no monetary gain is good enough to me.
That's probably all I have to say on the subject, I got to thinking back to the old Chubbs and from the suggestions made in the other thread we're going to need some big changes or improvements to get back to old 'epic dbz rpg' status.
