| This is a vote to adopt Hado's new version of "The Commandment". This is in no way a new stat system, only a new look on the stats currently in place. If you all haven't looked at the first amendment recently, do so now...
Now then... This vote is for non-staff only. It is a spoken vote, not an anonymous poll... You may begin voting now... | |

| I kinda voted on this in chat, in the end I'm a bit on the fence on the issue. The level gap is more pronounced, but abilities and skill play the other part of the equation. Bigger numbers or smaller numbers. meh | |

| While a lower level, and the most to suffer from the stat changes, I still vote yes to this system. I feel its more realistic that we get bigger people able to wrech havoc on the little guys. One: It encourages people to rank up as quickly as possible. Of course, RP quality might drop, but hey, it might drop with any incentive to rank up. Two: It will (hopefully) be realised by the lower levels that it may be necessary to band together. I know that there are quite a few low-level shinigami out there, but I'm afraid that we tend to gather into groups of two-three. Which won't cut it if anything above a Rank Three Hollow stumbled in. Three: It also encourages bigger guys to throw their weight around. if you got it, flaunt it, and chase down a couple lowbies. The fear of death will do them good....
...that is, if they survive. | |

| I agree with the system, though I still feel it should be slightly toned down. | |

| perhaps not +5 to each stat, but +2 or 3? Less of a pronounced change? | |

| while i don't think it would change how people RP based on rank differences.. I'll go ahead and say yes because it makes the stats look more impressive. | |

| I don't like it, not in the slightest.
This is very much like shitting on the little guys and i'll never endorse a system that does so.
I can see the logic of course but then again have any of you considered that if a Rank 11 faced off against a Rank 0 that the latter wouldn't blood need the bonus? Unless there is about an 8+ stat difference between the two combatants the advantage is minimal. So why the buggery should someone of higher rank be gifted MORE stats just because they have been here longer or whatnot.
I've probably missed the mark with this rank but the be all and end all is that i vote stringently against this. | |

| Well, I'm rank... Well... 1 now.. And I frankly don't have a problem with this, the purpose of this system is to make sure a rank 0 can't really stand up against a rank 3. A three rank difference should be quite noticeable if you ask me, and of course a rank 11 is going to shit wreck a rank 0, but the focus of this isn't the MASSIVE rank differences, it's the smaller ones.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the majority of the members are under rank 4 I believe, it isn't all too difficult to rank and it gives more incentive to TRY and rank. It most certainly does not stamp out the little guys, They just can't have the bright idea of trying to destroy something that should be 700x stronger than them. | |

| Which, considering that there are only 12 total ranks, a three rank difference is a quarter of the way from putting an academy student up against the captain commander... I agree that there should be SOME difficulty in battling some one with that much more experience than you. However we do already have a +3 there... I still don't know if a +5 is necessary... *Waits for more people to swing his vote* | |

| We all had 60 points to begin with, ranks aside, we all chose stats that best suited our char. In my case it was Strength and Endurance, both very apt for the brawler that Sal is.
No fighter is ever gonna be the best in all areas, there are rank 0's who can run rings around Sal but I tell ya what if i get a hold of them they'll know they're dead. So i don't quite see the basis for this bonus for higher ranked members.
You're already getting 5 a rank up, now if you wished that increased for each rank up then I'd totally agree with that. You've put the work in and you should get the gravy.
If you really wanted to inspire effort in Rank up applications then mark each thread that was submitted and from that assign a number of points based upon the quality involved. Case by case so to speak. Thats another option but this is entirely up to you guys i'm just tossing out ideas. | |

| O.o No stat points will be awarded by post... People didn't like that system (I did but... w/e)
However I might go for a +10 per Rank up instead... | |

| So you don't actually read the Rank up threads that are submitted just now? Its essentially the same with a price tag pinned on.
What i meant was an increase for each rank. Rank 1 you get 3, 2 you get 4 ect ect
