With Videl's sudden rise to power, everyone will start with 3,000 pl, due to her being 302k.

Now a lot of people just recently joined, and are now 1,000+ behind someone who would join today, so I think if your pl is under 3,000 you should be allowed to just start with 3,000 pl again, like this weeks update you just put your new stats as: 375 all

I oddly agree to this. Many of the new comers would have 3k PL while newcomers until last week would have 1% of Pan's PL that is around 1.9k PL.

I disagree. You don't magically get stronger because someone else does. Character-wise it makes no sense.

In the long run it doesn't matter. When I started out, I was 1% of OldGoten's PL which was only like 800 PL for my starting. To be honest, you shouldn't just get stronger because Videl killed a planet.

Yea I'm good on that, I start were I'm at now. No reason I need to get 1k from out of no where. Lol 1k that's funny not used to be that low but it's all good gotta start some where and I'm actually enjoying this character more than my others even though it's my first character I ever rp'd like 10 years ago. But if your here for power then you need to find another site cuz people are way behind videl now so you should be here for fun.

People are way behind Videl but doesn't mean we couldn't catch up.

I was just making a suggestion; it wouldn't benfit me any. I just didn't want it to look unfair to those who joined the last few weeks that the people who join the next few weeks are stronger then them. I thought I would suggest thing and maybe stop any drama that "could" come out of it, if any. You have to admit, Videl doubled the amount you start with this week, since last few weeks it was 1,600.

To 17: Most of those people Havn't rped much anyway, and how do you start at 3,000 then? Where do you magicly get those stats? This is a role playing "game", which means there is the game aspect, which means Stats are a big deal, it is up to each individual wether they put rp first or not, this this suggestion wouldn't have been mandatory.

Gero: I agree that it is like impossible to catch Pan through Videl now fully, but it still doesn't change the earlier game, or new members.

Well... some of the players have been around here forever.. and there is a dramatic power level difference.

Thank God I'm here for the story. =P I love the stat system and how complex it is... but due to the power levels and those freaks not stopping.. there's no way in hell a new comer like myself could catch up. So the idea of grinding power isn't on my list while I'm on this site. Maybe if Alex does a restart someday, but for now it's story and lurking. ;)

I just started last week, and the power level difference doesn't bother me. It's not like I can't win a fight against someone with 1000 higher powerlevel. Honestly, it will make me RP even better.

Yeah, seems silly to edit it. Cos if you do that, why not give everyone an edit to a 3k pl start.

Starting PL really doesnt make much difference.

This is why we should concentrate more on story and less on word counts and power grinding. Hell, someone with Nappa's power could maybe beat me if he out-RPed me.

I'm now starting the campaign to resurrect Lester Dent and have him create a character here and battle Pan. Why Lester Dent? Mostly because I'm currently on a Pulp kick, so it'd either be him or Walter Gibson. And quite frankly, an analogue to either Doc Savage or The Shadow in this game would be awesome.

Not to mention these were guys who got paid to write and could crank out a good 8,000 some words a day. Every day.

Yes, but you used yourself in the example, therefore it was legit this time :P

Though yes. Gosai shall pursue Videl. The only question is what his intentions will become, hahaha. The ol' boy is somewhat... unpredictable.

honestly, i don't have an opinion on the matter... but if a new player wants to get anywhere near the top, 2k powerlevel isn't going to make the slightest difference.
I started with 1.5k ish PL 2 weeks ago and I'm already at 5k + 3.2k when in battle.

I say no because then they're start off stronger than me!!!

But seriously, it doesn't matter to me. I'm more of a casual rper, which is why I'm here then gone sometimes. Stats mean little to me as long as I'm recognized as one of the best rpers to ever do it. At least, I strive to be.

But by the end of my update, it would hardly matter.

If they're that worried about stats that could just keep stat battling, Future Trunks...

Guys... starting stats are based on the person in the #1 Spot in the Top 25 on the Main Site. Videl ToMed after that was made, and was still inactive when April rolled in. Everyone will be based on Pan's PL until the new Top 25 is posted in May.

Yah good point Ryu.

Anyway, sorry I even suggested this, just thought it would be considerate if they wanted it, obviously they don't care.

I don't see any need to apologize! It was still a reasonable suggestion, I just happen to not care how strong I am. You were very considerate to us newbies. =)

I'm just checking, this means that I start with a power level of 3000, right? And then I distribute that evenly across my stats?

Because my avatar just doesn't drive the point home enough.
