Here's the deal. We're going to be redoing a large portion of the site. A lot of the site. We've been tacking stuff on and throwing stuff out, and a lot of what we've been doing didn't really do much.
Now before you ask, this is not a reset. Ranks are being kept, and we will try to ensure that everyone with a special position has something equivalent.
In a moment I will reveal some of our ideas. Before I do I want to explain some things.
Ranks and positions are not being reset. But we're going to start over with some other things. Let's call it a reintroduction of sorts. Everyone has been getting off on the wrong foot, and we're going to fix that.
To ensure that works out I would like to emphasize that with the exception of threads like these, any disagreements, suggestions, ideas or concerns should be brought to staff attention through PM, skype or email. Even in threads like this one though, there should be absolutely no arguing or drama.
Here's what we have on the table.
Plot and Country. We're going to reduce the number of country boards. The focus of this world will be Fiore. This is because it's difficult getting characters to roleplay together if they're a world a part. Members will be able to post in other countries, but there won't be a formal board for them.
Since this is an original site, there will be some original places added to Fiore.
Guilds. We might change how guilds are set up. We haven't fully decided on this.
Missions. Missions will be the primary method of development. When a mission is completed you will receive a certain amount of jewels based on how much work was placed in the mission.
Dungeons. Dungeons will be more like the current Naga's Den dungeon. When they are completed they have a chance of giving a random reward. The reward may not be more than a mission.
Magic Types. Magic types will be replaced with classes. Each character will have a single class. Those classes will have 4 schools of abilities (but only start with 2). A school would be like our current first and second magic. Members will be able to make any class with any schools, as long as they form a theme together.
For example, an elementalist's four schools would be something like fire manipulation, water manip, wind manip and earth manip.
Special Positions. Our twenty slayer positions will be traded for lost magic positions. Lost magics can be god or dragon slayer, or a unique class that an admin has agreed upon.
Magical Items. Those without a 'school' that use magical items will have access to a special type of magical items. These items will not rank up, and their affects don't change. Look at the masks in the collector's list to see what I mean.
Guidelines. We will try to make the guides briefer and easier to read.
Resources. Abilities will consume mana and energy. On average, four abilities of your rank could be used before your character tires out. But you could use abilities as a longer rank to conserve resources.
Cbox. We have staff paying money to keep the cbox's running. There have been language, discussion and more in these that should not be there. The cbox is not for perverse subjects, talking poorly about people, talking about other sites or causing drama. Also, questions should be posted in the help or counseling boards. With this all said, if certain subjects continue in the cbox we may remove them from the site.
This thread is open for suggestions or concerns. There should be no crude language, and just because you post something here doesn't mean we're going to 180 on a subject.
