Okay, so here's what been on my mind the past few days. I know I haven't been RPing with you guys, and for that I'm sorry, but I haven't abandoned the site. I'm still here, watching over it. I've been searching for more interesting prizes for our AP Points shop. Since main plots were kind of a bust (no one really participated in them), I've been thinking about making character creation cost points. Not a whole lot, but some. Here's what I'm thinking: As a new member, your first five characters are free. After that, you have to pay. Maybe 100 points, or perhaps 50.
Any thoughts?

Four, three, two, one. Grab her hand and whisper

I really don't either; I mean, on one hand, moderation on characters is good, but the buying a character seems kinda fuzzy to me.
Just to clarify, if would be... Kinda like buying character slots? Start off with five, and then buy more as you want to make another. Kinda like a server; where you make a new character with a different class, but in this case, it would be a different character with a different club?

Pretty much, yeah. I'm just trying to get people to spend their points. And that way people don't go crazy making characters. It encourages activity, so you can get enough points to make your next character.

That's true. I still am not sure whether or not I like the idea, though, because my question about characters that aren't part of a club wasn't answered.

Uh... I didn't know there were characters outside of clubs

That'd be a good idea. What kinds of things are you roleplaying that don't fit into the clubs?

It's not like anyone spends points on anything else -_-

I think this is a good idea, actually. That way you are basically forced to pick and choose what you really want to participate in, and not just have characters everywhere sitting and not being role-played. Also, if you want a character deleted, there should be a refund type deal, where you get half, or a third, of the creation points back.

The refund thing is a good idea. I like that.
