I like both ideas thus far. I really like an idea where there is a set amount of customs per race. The only big problem I tend to have with customs is most people who try to join as a custom character are only doing it because the character they want is taken.
ie: fagita, roku...stupid ass shit like that. I fell that in addition to what Vi said with her form we should add description and history. I know we don't require these for cannon characters but hear me out. Description is a main point. Since they are a custom they can look like anything they want. This is to cut down on members trying to join as Bejita's long lost twin. We would be picky. However they still have the right to choose what they look like so if they look similar to a character ok, however if for description they describe to the T some one in the DBZ universe, or even worse post a picture of someone from the DBZ universe a swift no will be given out.
Histroy is another way to catch anyone who is trying to weasel their way in using a pseudo DBZ character. With the history it should be completely from scratch, nothing to do with anything relating to the DBZ universe, other then fighting, ki, the everyday norm.
Last I do believe they should have to do a much harder Example Roleplay. They are making a character from scratch here, they better be a damn fine writer. A 300 word sample isn?t going to cut it. You want a custom character you prove you earned that custom.
Those are my thoughts right now, let me know what you guys think of them, maybe we can work it into a more workable version?yea I know I said work twice there.
