Well back to the secondary character, why not say people who have good activity let them people have a secondary character but at a higher rank. This would allow for teams to be created in Kumo or maybe a high ranker character that may be needed for plots or something, this means that those characters don't always have to be around. Well they would if they have a team but for plots it could be easily done.

Becky just gave us all a very strong reason as to why we aren't doing secondary characters. My advice to all of you is to not worry about the state of Kumo or Konoha and just RP. If everyone RPed as much as they sat here worrying about secondary characters, state of Kumo, and any other thing that they are fussing over, the supposed dry spell wouldn't be happening. We have people in Kumo, it's just a matter of getting them back in the game, something that we are working on. So please just go about your RPs as normal. Thank you.

I think this is obvious but you may as well lock this topic as the topic is solved

Also there were rules on only one Legendary Item, BL, Celestial Gate User per user. Since those were rare, and to keep things somewhat balanced. From what I've seen it works out pretty well.

But onto the subject at hand. Closing a thread would suck horrendously, and opening a 3rd while nice might not be the best choice if your problem is lack of activity. I like the whole advertising Kumo and doing things to make it more attractive to newer members.

Unfortunately, the ratio of successfully playing multiple characters is incredibly low. There are a few members that are fully capable of doing so, but here at US, we don't bargain on a potential success. I am not going to put down any other sites, however, the role-playing expectations and calibre of writing here is quite high. Keeping up posts with multiple characters while still maintaining our expectations is a rather difficult task and we don't like putting people in condemning situations.

Welcome to the wonderful world of NPC'ing. If one is to actually read our EXP System...

The EXPERIENCE SYSTEM wrote:: Non-Playable Characters
Non-playable Characters or NPCs can be frequently found around the forum. These characters are only in use to further the role-playing journey of a member's so that they may reach their fullest potential. If one wishes to earn additional EXP for their character, they may sign up to role-play as an NPC for a fellow member. When these topics are put up for evaluation, they will be graded like a regular thread and all EXP that is gained from this venture will only be valued as 'Expendable EXP.' In other words, it does not count towards your overall total towards advancements in rank.

We do have this option for those that feel like they can handle a little more responsibility. If one so wishes it, all they have to do is contact their Kage to discuss the potential to NPC. This is a win/win situation as one can RP with a different character while still gaining Expendable EXP for their actual one.

Just to make a note on this:
Just because one is able to gain an NPC, it may just be a civilian, genin, etc. Higher ranks need to be discussed fully and are based on one's writing capability.
