Welcome to Gaia! ::

We'll be dropping for sure the number of slots they have. We're already planning it out to make it work out better. But as for the rest, I find it amusing because honestly we've begun talking about it. My wife and I were talking about how tamer basically begs for you to be a more formless fighting type, with less emphasis on taijutsu and instead getting tons of formless. I'll bring it up formally to the others soon (read as "when I get home"). Honestly, now that I'm the HR//PR. Guy I've been looking more into how things can be balanced out. I'd be more than willing to talk with you about alternatives, and in fact I welcome anyone to join in on these talks.

We cannot get better, after all, unless we hear from the members what they want to see. Any suggestions or ideas you have we'd definitely love to hear, and I'm here to help y'all have fun!

We're actually working on that last part! There's a slow overhaul going that we're going through as quickly as we can. The next stage of it is the jutsu lists, which I know hold the majority of the issues. If anything stands out to you [the Formless system will be completely rewritten soon, I just haven't had a chance to do it Dx], let me know, and I will focus on fixing those things first.

As for the list of systems, I completely agree! I can't say it'll come out with the jutsu, but I'll do my best to get it done as soon as possible!

I know you all just did some work on the jobs system, but I feel like 1) it being buried is a problem, and 2) there's not really a description about how to engage with it. I managed to divine that it's basically just a system of missions by digging in, but an explanation of what it is and why it's important would be great. Especially people who haven't been taking part in Naruto RPs for a decade.

That also doesn't really need to be a terribly complex thing, just replace the content posts at the top of the two jobs sections with info about how the job system works in general, how people claim that experience and whatnot, what each of the two sections require and are meant to be - a note that the ANBU and Oinin sections will have other jobs as a prerequisite. Basically, an "Explain Like I'm 5" version of those systems, because they're pretty overwhelming.

I don't remember exactly when, but I know that they will happen, most likely before or at the very beginning of summer.

Basically late spring or Summer, Thank you

We do have a Skype chat for the villages. Kumo and Kiri, because they are currently in an alliance, have a shared chat, and I believe Suna and Konoha each have their own. If you have a Skype account, you'll likely be added to the village chat when your character is approved. We keep the chats separate because of the large number of members, and to keep intervillage planning separate (although a lot of members are in multiple chats).

We have considered making a Samurai class in the past, and there's a possibility of it coming up again in the future. For now, the Bukijutsu class has a Discipline focused on Samurai, as well as a couple of Bukijutsu styles dedicated to the discipline.

As far as custom bloodlines, unfortunately we don't typically take suggestions for additions, to avoid everyone submitting their own and every bloodline only having one person in it. However, there is a lot opportunity to create custom jutsu for your character that can be taught to others. Should enough people find interest, we can consider making the clan a permanent addition to the guild. Additionally, we host bloodline competitions every now and then (and will probably be holding one soon, since we haven't in a while) in search of potential additions.
