Welcome to Gaia! ::

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! DAMN I'M A DAY LATE.....

So your taking away bloodlines and demons

Now for starters this is my own opinion and i am not calling you out or anything im simply a member thats been here awhile giving you my thoughts.

The bloodlines and demons make the guild very unique, the system that the guild has devised over its exsistence has become very good, i think it actrually keeps people from becoming to powerful rather then as you stated over powering them in a sense that every bloodline has rules regulations restrictions etc. and everybody has fair chance to join a bloodline or have a demon they simply need to apply for it if they are not accepted thats because they are not very good roleplayers or there new usually its one or the other. demons yes give certain people alot more power then your average ninja, but thats the point not everybody can be equal there are stronger and weaker ninja smarter and dumber slower and faster nobody can be all the same.

also if your taking away bloodlines then does that mean there abilites are off limits as well? what is the new guild system? in any case i do believe that this decision very well might end up killing off the guild, i do hope that i am wrong.

btw, if you take away the bloodlines yet allow anybody to use there abilites then that is far easyer to make over powered charecters due to the fact that there will no longer be restrictions, rules, regulations etc. and i actrually think it is fun having the bloodlines with rules and what have you because it makes the roleplayer choose a bloodline after thinking about how he can use it to the best of its advatages and when faced with there weakness they need to adapt and overcome they need to find a way to defeat there oponent despite having the lower hand but they must do so following the rules, restrictions and regulations set for there bloodline

So, You have everything a bit off; so let me guide you in the right Direction with this long and lengthy explanation

• Me Personally:

So, as you may or may not know...I helped build this guild (originally Darkoolaid, S!lk, Shinsua and myself). Bloodlines and Demons were separated for a long time until we decided to give this a try (Darkoolaid was ALWAYS the Kyuubi). We decided to keep them separate because the thought of the Kyuubi that also had possibly Sharigan or Byakugan was daunting. Despite the people that were in the guild being amazing RP'ers...it was something that we needed to do. People were just using a mix of the Bijuudama and the Amaterasu. Understandably this completely ruined the aspect of the Bloodlines and the Demons all together for me. As I saw the guild grow, change and different Captains come to power...I continued to see this privilege abused. I promised myself until someone could prove to me that they could have a bloodline and a demon that; I would completely ban it all together. I don't believe that alone is going to drive away members, I believe that not posting and leaving people hanging is going to crate inactivity. I never said anything about dramatically changing anything (yet), I was working on a new class.

ok, well then are the new members not allowed to use clan techniques? for instance say i am new i just joined i make my rpc, he is earth and fire based and i wanted to use Bakuto the exploding fist style but it is a bloodline so does that now mean that i cannot use that style because its a bloodline? or better yet i wanted to use the sharigan or byakugan but they are bloodlines so will nobody be allowed to them? etc.
