If you want more activity, make the training everyone does more worth while. I ever see anyone actually have to TRY. lol. Nobody fights, nobody has to worry about dangers from each other, and everyone is so safe inside their own walls and threads it's sick. People train to beat each other up and get cool prizes, to rank up and go to chuunins, and to generally be badass. Poor medics have nothing to do on the site. Nobody needs a sensor. Lots of unused positions because nobody needs then. Why would we need Dragon AnBu to coordinate anything? There's nothing to protect. Why would we need Cat AnBu? There's nobody to assassinate. Who needs the Wolf AnBu? There are no missing ninja. Seige weapons sit and collect dust. Chidori, Hiraishin, and Cursed Seal for what? When are you going to use it EXCEPT for Chuunins? Get a BFS sword for what?

So yeah...give us more excitement. Give us better prizes for our RP, for our time, other than RYO AND MORE RYO! because it's honestly not worth it. I gives a shit about war, but can we at least beat each other up again? Make that training, and so many other positions, worth it?

I agree with you Coal. Aside from preparing and getting Chuunin, there is very little actually worth training for. Once you get Chuunin, the game is basically over. There was once a time when getting Kage meant you had to face the possibility of assassination, but now it's just a shiny title for people to wear and never have to worry about being attacked because "ninja" aren't allowed to find a village without OOC Kage permission....let alone actually DO anything. I too couldn't care less about full-scale wars, but a little conflict should happen everywhere and at any given time. We're supposed to be roleplaying ninja with deadly skills and powers, but yea you see how little of that actually happens.

There is only so much events can do anymore. Having to fend of roaming bands of thieves/bandits or the random monster/demon attack is really boring and played out.

I'm pretty new to the site, but after reading Satoshi and Coal's arguments I'd like to put my two cents in.

I've peeped into this site on and off for over four years now, but never actually rp'ed in it. That being said--I think what they both brought up are incredibly valid points. I see alot of high level characters simply socializing, lounging around with lower ranked characters, and otherwise chilling out for lack of a better term.

Yes, that's a problem, but also I remember thumbing through the rules and reading something along the lines of once you become B rank, your character is DE. I like the idea, but I'd take it further and say bring that down to C rank so that people will be more inclined to form teams and such at the lower levels to survive.

Maybe add an incentive to functioning in registered teams so that we see more Genin and Chuunin groups. And maybe, just maybe we reward ANBU with added TP and other paraphanelia like it was originally intended for them to recieve.

I don't know if it's excitement that the site needs as much as it just needs to go back to a few of the things it originally had; because let's be honest the site's design as a whole is pretty genius. We just need it's members to be less afraid of losing all the jutsu and crap they worked for. After all, we're ninja--death is just apart of the game.

Kind of crazy how this has turned up again.

Not bringing it down to "C" Class, for "DE". "C" Class can still die people. Read the rules.

For everything else, staff and GMs constantly bring stuff to the table but it is your choice to go into the events or whatever. If you don't do them then that is your own damn fault.
