Quote:Originally posted by Android 20I can understand what you mean - there are still downsides. But as you said, they're not as big. Which is, as I said, my main problem with the poll. Unfortunately you can't have these things scale, and as Rad said, not that many people have really stepped forward to explain their voting reasons. XD
It's not just that, but the fact that I more or less HAVE to switch to custom. It's the storyline my current character is in. What's going to happen will make it so that I more or less, can't go back until a great passage of time has elapsed.
It's very difficult to explain all this without explaining my whole storyline and future character and whatnot. =/
If you'd prefer, I can explain EVERYTHING I've planned, as that would make a lot more sense, albeit ruining the storyline for anyone who might have so happened to read my work.
But yeah, existing details are a bit more difficult to work around. But being fucked over is still being fucked over. =P
Edit:
Quote:Originally posted by CoolaThat's not really what we're arguing about. =P Either way you're going to have to shift to the timeskip sooner or later.
Quote:Originally posted by Super BuuI do understand. But since Waff said there was going to be a new forum with the reset and everything, couldn't you just not post on the new board until you've finished on the old board? I'm sure they'd allow that.
Quote:Originally posted by CoolaI'm not implying that they're special or that they deserve better treatment. For the most part it's canons that are having to adapt to the shift, as this thread shows.
I mean no offense by this, but it sounds as if you are implying that the canons are more important and deserve to have special treatment, but the customs are free to be messed with.
What I'm saying is that if your character isn't out yet, there's no downside to changing details. On the other hand, I can't say "Buu never went to planet Vegeta" unless I retcon and take out a big chunk of his established history. Customs aren't yet established yet, so they have complete freedom as to how they mould they history, until the point at which they come into existence. At that point, customs have exactly the same ramifications as canons. Do you understand what I mean?
