Going to allow custom characters? Really, what's the point anymore? There is no difference between the races, everyone has equivilant power-up's so it's not like any race is more powerful than the other.
I really don't know why we still refuse custom characters.

Well.. there are still DBZ characters to use, and it's always been no custom characters. I'm not about to change that.
Not to mention, we'd have mostly saiyajin characters.

So? What's wrong with that. Oh no we have a bunch of Saiyajin characters, I would rather have a bunch of active saiyajin's than only a few people who can. And what about those who come to the RPG and only see someone like Roshi or Puar available, they'd be more likely to join if they knew they could have a custom character.
The only reason the whole 'no custom character' was around was because Saiyajin's were the strongest race on Chubbs until we made an equivalent transformation for every race currently on the RPG.

Custom characters aren't wrong, but I like that whole authentic DBZ feel.
Authentic? Like how, nothing that happened in DB has any relivence to this RPG. The namek saga, and all that hasn't happened. And characters are mingling around without any kind of timeline, it's not really that authentic except that we can play as characters from the show.
If anything it's less authentic for us to be milling around than it would if the characters from the show were NPC's.

For third tier powerups (if we ever get that far), there will be specific bonuses that will be unique for each race.
That's about all I can say considering the whole equivalent factor...

That would be interesting, because it might end up making someone pick something other than a Saiyajin.

if custom characters are alowd they should be watched over carefuly. They would have to be extremely creative and the rp should be better than normal. If there are to many saiyans that character wouldnt be creative so that problem is solved.
When in doubt: It was sarcasm.

I like chubbs because I can actually be the character, make her as I want to.
Besides, people who complain about this kind of thing and inactivity should look at their own inactivity too.
People like Saiya-Jin not just for the power, but to just be one. *shrug*

the thing is not every one is creative. you'll be getting about twenty Vegita clones per joining form.

True story, you'll only get DBZ character clones. I don't think DBZ is very creative or will produce too many creative characters.

But if people were doing nothing but joining as humans to be Kuririn clones it wouldn't matter? That's just ridiculous. I guess VS must suck because the majority of the people there are Valertrez.

im just letting you know that im for the custom characters as long as its reserved for people who make very creative ones and are more than decent RPers.

I hope you mean shortly after I joined... but we digress... custom characters should not be given to the average retard (i use the term loosly) that tries to join this thing. They will ruin the experience for the rest of us with thier unimaginative character.

I think the Custom Characters should only be open to characters on the RPG who have been active and shown they are good at roleplaying.

Well yeah, it would make idiots or inactive people drop off and those with talent would stay with their new custom characters. It would also lower the amount of "I wuld liek 2 jon as ssj5godku."

Oh, I like the no custom chars thing...
Everytime I see an RPG with custom characters, you always get this pile of ridiculous morons with crazy, impossible characters. Like, a half-Namek half-human that can go SSJ for some reason.
I think this RPG is running good now... why change a good thing?
