I'm with Yamu. There is absolutely nothing wrong with MIA right now. We are aware that people are lazy, or have real lives, or both. We don't expect ANYONE to post all the time. Roleplaying is a HOBBY, and we do it ON OUR SPARE TIME. If that's once every two weeks, whatever. We are not going to force people to roleplay anymore then we already do.
And anyone can get NPCed for awhile while they get their life back on track, like Yajirobe right now. It's not like we only do it to certain people.
As for switching, and I have no idea why this topic is even relevant to MIA, I agree that there should be steeper penelties because I have no respect for people who constantly switch characters. Switching once, I can sort of undersand, as I know what it's like to not get in touch with a character. But after that, it's ridiculous to keep going through characters like I go through beer.
I'm perfectly aware that for whatever reason, 13 wants to be Piccolo again even after all the crap we had to go through when he switched originally. This means Piccolo has to switch, and then whoever he wants to switch to might switch, and we'll have a fucking domino effect till everyone is happy. It is RIDICULOUS.
You get a character, stick with it. You can change the character anyway you want outside of appearance, gender and name. If you want your character to act like a saiyan, nobody is stopping you! Have them be like 1/4th saiyan, they just can't go SSJ because it's too little of a relation. Then, problem solved, you've got a saiyan!
