Masters and the Rating System

The Rating System

First, I need to explain the rating points, which determine how good or evil you are.?

In DBT, we?ve decided that there needs to be ?points? to decide how evil someone is. That gives us something to count to see who deserves training with certain masters and who don?t. It also decides where you go when you die, which is very important to this forum. At first we tried to use the rating system integrating in the forum, but now you?ll see a rating statistic inside of your profile. Let me explain the basics.

The Basics

- If you have a positive rating you go to Heaven. If you have a negative rating you go to Hell. If your rating is at 0, decide where you want to go.
- When you die, you get a halo, and may lose every single item you hold if it?s not in a capsule case, apart from zenny and clothing.
- No matter where you're going to go, you must still travel along Snake Way and report to King Yemma. That's a must when dead.
- If you were killed by a power energy blast, some or all of your items will be destroyed. It's up to you on how to RP your items being destroyed.
- Dragonballs, for the purpose of this RP, are entirely indestructible, and so will never be destroyed.

Rating Points

- If you are in Otherworld with 50 Rating Points, you can trade it all in for one day (a real day) of life.
- If you are in Hell with -50 Rating Points, you may escape off to the world of the living for a day.
- When you come back to life, your rating points return to 0.
- Whenever the Rating Points are at 50 (or -50) you're able to come back to the living world for a day of your choice. There are also special ways to earn Rating Points:

- Attacking a planet. - 15 Rating Points
- Cause a slow, painful death. Make your opponent suffer. - 8 Rating Points
- Betray an ally/minion. - 10 Rating Points
- Convert someone (Cause them to trade their + points for -, or turn 'em Majin). - 10 Rating Points
- Kill someone with positive Rating Points. - 10 Rating Points
- Cause random acts of destruction. - 5 Rating Points
- Fight someone with positive Rating Points. - 5 Rating Points
- Steal from anyone. - 2 Rating Points
- Show apathy toward someone. ? 1 Rating Point

- Help another Planet. + 15 Rating Points
- Show mercy to a fighter. + 8 Rating Points
- Sacrifice yourself to kill a villain (Failure). + 10 Rating Points
- Sacrifice yourself to kill a villain (Success). + 20 Rating Points
- Save an ally. + 5 Rating Points
- Kill someone with negative Rating Points. + 10 Rating Points
- Help anyone. + 2 Rating Points
- Fight someone with negative Rating Points. + 5 Rating Points
- Go a day without violence (sparring excluded). +2 Rating Points

There IS no limit to the points you can get. Remember that. Also, the points are distributed by admins only. Never touch that stat.

Otherworld Trainers

Coming soon; as will more trainers for other planets.

"Posts? Oh, damn it. Is this something telling me not to double post or some shit? You've got to be kidding me."

Ha. I double post when RP'ing by myself. This is in no way an explanation on what you can and can't do with posts. Instead, it's on the relevance of posts and what they can do for you (And I lied. There will be some "Can't do's" involved). But befoe I get started, know that we'll never have it where posts will give BP. That one's out of the question.

Zenny/Jobs/Etc

All posts do is show how active you are in character, and let you reach new heights such as transformations, jobs, and special training. That's right. Posts will effect when you get transformations, when you get raises in jobs, and obviously training (as explained in the mechanics earlier).

Zenny is increased by 15 for each post, which doesn't seem like much. Honestly, 15 really is nothing, but can add up after a while. Thing is, Out of Character posts are not applicable for a zenny boost and neither are battles. This is mostly because we don't want anyone spamming the forum to gain Zenny, or fighting non-stop. Emphasize on Role-Playing, okay?

Jobs offer a daily increase on the zenny earned. The type of jobs that you're able to take will be explained in another topic, but just know that you can get raises to gain even more zenny a day.?

Transformations are also going to succumb to posts. Instead of the regular needs for transformations, there will also be a needed post count in order to gain it. Why? Well, I'm not interested in watching someone train every day and not RP to get a transformations. That's why training posts will also not count for a zenny bonus.?
