Simple Question today. Would you guys like to have your first Turtle Hermit on the site? Relis (ssj6uub) here is volunteering for the role, so since we're running things in a democratic setting, we're putting it a vote. Leave a comment when you vote, if you wish. Do you feel Relis is ready? Don't feel he's ready, or does he need to show if he's capable or not? The decision is yours, fellas and ladies!

Hi I'm Relis by the way yeah I'm new I know but still I think either I or perhaps Azurai would be a good fit for this role as one of the few humans other than us who doesn't believe in ki but if not me Azurai would be great for this role as he is a monk who is considerably powerful although I should get a significant power boost once I leave the saga that I'm in

I think perhaps the real question is less 'should Relis get the role', but perhaps a more general -
What Requirements should there be before someone can officially claim(or even perhaps create) a 'role'. I must admit before now we've been pretty slap-dash about it, allowing people to make new characters and claim the role, only for them to not really live up to the 'obligation' that it presents. Now that we have a better foundation though, definitely worth reviewing the process as a community.
Personally I think if a role is currently unclaimed, someone can begin angling them self as it's owner in an 'unofficial' sense (eg. you are the heir to the throne, you are the star pupil of the dojo, you are the temporary 'acting' lead in the proper owners 'absence'). Once they reach say... 10,000pl, they may then claim the role officially. However if they do not remain active and meet the requirements of the role, then it will go back to being open again.
When claiming the role, you might have to do an RP of X length, and the admin grade it and you get the position. Perhaps also have a public thread where you declare that you are interested in the role and 'plead your case' on why you want it/why you would be good for it, and people could then raise (friendly) concerns or critiques (eg. 'you're activity is a little low', 'your character isn't really suited in my option for X reason', 'you smell funny and I hate you').
Might be worth putting into a separate thread actually.

I like your idea Bao. I think that roles should typically be handed out to members who have kind of proved their worth via some means of activity. Someone like Uub could fit the role of Turtle Hermit simply because of how active he is but someone who straight up makes a character to claim a role can't always be trusted as easily. I don't mind the 10k PL rule but I think that maybe someone should be a member for at least 2+ weeks and be a little bit active to claim a role.
EDIT: Also going through some sort of application process where they have to RP for the role is another great idea, that's my suggestion regarding Uub as I voted 4.

I am okay with a sort of trial and bao's idea of being the star pupil or something I'd have to fix some canonity problems though such as the fact that poka who is a user who is actually from that school is much more story qualified than my character who trained under the Ram master Sause so unless I went to the current turtle hermit for more training which I could do it won't work for me

I think a PL requirement and post/thread explaining how they come into a position where they might assume the rank would be a good idea. Though I think the PL requirement ought to vary based on your rank - for example, to take over as the ruler of Arcose would require something ridiculous like 100,000 because the current ruler and his family are likely to be among the most powerful Arcosians, who are already very powerful as a race anyway.

I think the pl requirement for hermit positions should be about what um through 8,000-10,000 to keep it as cononicly realistic as possible as most humans never achieve past that power level (with the exception of krillin , yamcha and tien) I mean even the dbz humans had to struggle for years in order to reach a power level of 100,000 krillins pl at the androids saga . So it should either be by that power level or the candidate has to make a post about how they got the position and a staff has to grade it and check with another staff to make sure it's high par enough I don't think king of vegeta and Lord of arcose really need that though. As anyone can become king if they beat the king or lord

It would appear this idea of setting PL requirement and a thread explaining the role's acquisition is how we're doing this. In that regards, a new thread, explaining these things will be made, once we determine what will be best for each role. Since we are talking of it now, what shall be the requirements of the Turtle Hermit and, since it's the opposing school, what shall be the requirements of the Crane?

Wait I thought that post was already taken ! Can I take that one instead always liked tien slot plus the ordinal and stuff honestly either would be awsome anyway but yea I think several mods will have to first judge wether or not you are skilled enough than you have to meet a pl requirement of around 8,000 than if you've done all that you have to make one final post to initiate yourself into the position

I figure the requirements might as well be the same for each - when they were a focus of the official story they were pretty evenly-matched.
I think Uub's minimum requirement of 8000 sounds reasonable.
