Questions about proposed changes

...but you don't get prestige based on the amount of words you have written. You get it on quality, through the community grading system. I still don't see what you're saying.

@Josh: Perhaps, then, we should call Character Level "Power Level." The way you describe Power Level is almost exactly how I envision Character Level. The way I envision Power Level in the system Kaden posted is a measure of your physical / general ki strength. You could still have a kickass technique without having a high Power Level.

Ok, say that you're here for like, three years. Say that, for example, you've written pretty well. You now have a high CL. Your CL will not go down if you write poorly. Your CL doesn't fluctuate any direction but UP.

Ok, now to hammer the point home further. Say you've been here for SIX YEARS and you write like SHIT. You are STILL A BADASS.

This is the same as the current system, where your CA has nowhere to go but UP. Yeah, ok, the amount of prestige you get varies depending on how well you write but that doesn't at all change the fact that if you write a lot you get more prestige. When somebody new shows up and everybody is like, 400 CL they're fucked. They're just FUCKED.

ALSO: Now there's no way around having a huge one up on everybody below you. You have no say in your ability to fight, you have no great influence on your character.

If you base the fights of of a purchasable Power Level you've sudden;yt created a system where you have checks and balances and the people that HAVE been here for a long time now have the OPTION of having a high PL or having a lot of cool shit. Cool shit like HQs and fuckin ships and custom techniques that let you... turn porridge into gold or something I dunno, instead of just being a powerhouse in one on one fights.

It allows a little something I like to call strategy into the mix instead of just arbitrarily getting stronger as you go. Now you have to make a choice: Do I want to have metallic based breakfast foods or do I want to punch Character X in the teeth so hard his face becomes an asshole? IT IS NOW UP TO YOU, THE WRITER.
