Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lols so to let you all know the past subforum is up running and under way so happy posting guys.

Sage, while you are correct that it's not really your job to introduce the characters into the storyline, it is your job to make sure the storyline remains coherent and stable, which isn't working too well right now. As it is, random fights for no apparent reason keep popping up, making it awfully difficult to drop a character in. My character's a captain, meaning he'd actually've been easier to drop in mid-fight, but most of these characters aren't, making it a near-impossibility. Some new student just doesn't belong in a battle.

Also, we need some sort of storyline for the mortal world, and that is the job of the moderators. Right now, there is no point whatsoever in playing a Quincy or gifted character, and there's barely a point to playing a Shinigami. I'd love to play a gifted character (a Quincy lawful 'On my pride as a Quincy' stuff just ain't my style, which sucks, as they're thematically cool), but I don't see any reason to (and yes, I'm quite capable of managing multiple characters in an RPG; I usually do).

A few other minor (and not-so-minor) things: Current posters need to start using proper grammar. The spelling mistakes are starting to decrease drastically, but a lot of the grammar is atrocious, and that scares away potential good RPers. Apostrophes and commas are important. That cannot be said enough. Sentence structure is even more important, as is detail. While I'm not going to go nitpicking through posts or calling out names, as that would be cruel and I don't want to start fights, these are problems that get rid of potential RPers before they even start.

As I'm fairly certain it's going to end up asked anyway, here's a few suggestions:

1.) A coherent, stable storyline needs to be decided on, and it can't be so battle-focused. I'm not saying scrap everything that's happened so far, and I'm fairly certain you shouldn't need to (though it's always possible that I'm wrong), but we need something. This goes for both Soul Society and the Mortal World.
2.) Players who are still iffy with their RPing skills should not be allowed more than one character, nor should they be allowed Captain status.
3.) Both Ari and I have offered RPing assistance. I honestly don't know how long Ari's been RPing online, but I know she has excellent grammar and a strong grasp on how it should be done. I'm an experienced RPer, and while I'm a little rusty due to not having been in a good non-Zoids-battle RP for a while, I'm still pretty good at what I do.



On a side note: Sorry I didn't post sooner. I hadn't realized anyone had posted in here, as I don't often check out OOC. Also, I'm aware I haven't posted a bit. I'm kinda stuck. Ari and I had something figured out, but various little things that got me distracted kept me from posting, so she just kind of assumed I'd changed my mind on it, so I'm not sure where to go with it now.

For all who are interested.......

There is a bleach rp going on outside of this guild. It is quite well made and I myself have joined it. If you would like to check it out here is the link.
