This has gone on unresolved long enough!!

The EXP system. I know, everyone is going to hate me for bringing it up, but I'm just gonna grind ahead and post this topic. It needs to be officially decided. This Poll goes on for a week. If, at the end of this week there are more votes for 'Yes' this will be implemented, and Modmins will have to start using it. Also, another field will be added under each of the Pokemon on your trainer sheet/app thing, marked EXP.

My proposition (package deal):

FOR BATTLES:

Spoiler:

FOR TRAINING TOPICS:

Spoiler:

I know some people might just hate you for this, but i agree none the less

This is gonna need lot of work, add exp to each profile that has ever been done....
Or we could make a global announcement telling them to add exp:0.
The RP topic starters will be requested to link their profiles in the thread, or in their sigs. The moderator in that opic can then add the exp according to the method. This is IF the method is agreed for.

I'm thinking that when EXP is gained, the Modmin goes to the person's app, which could easily be done*. If there are no EXP counters there already, the Modmin adds them (at zero) and then adds the aforementioned EXP.

*I think someone even made an announcement awhile back, saying that everyone should link to all of their characters in their sigs. Let me go find it...

I still don't like 'EXP per post' because that still gives more exp just to those who post many short barely meaningful posts, rather than have a 'training session'

it counts only for RP posts, with atleast 10 words, the threads can give 10 exp instead then.

Thread starter isn't really fair either. Some people start threads like mad going between places, whereas others have very long RPs in one single thread. Maybe instead, every ten words in a training session you could give them an exp or something. It avoids them actually leveling for no apparent reason, and also avoids them racing to see how many topics they can start.

right. but that method is fo pokemon users who dont battle, so why wud they train and start a training topic.....

Because, they don't battle, but they would still TRAIN. I'm not talking about training through battling. I'm talking about training by practicing moves, building endurance, etc. The topic thing I'm saying is because then they would always want to be the topic starter, and would most likely travel back and forth between areas just to start new topics to gain more exp. They could just label their post at the top like... [Pikachu's training session] or something, then have their trainer ordering them, and the Pokemon performing and training, then give out like 1 exp every 10 words or something. You wouldn't have to do it every single post, so it wouldn't be that hard, it would only be for training session posts.

Alekion has a very important point. Nobody seems to have a problem with what she says. Action has been taken, the top post has been edited.

Q: if you make it 1exp/ten words in a training topic, then people who battle could also train, and vice averse so they could gain exp either way. Since odds are, everyone will wind up battling on occasion, and regular trainers may just want to have a couple training sessions.

Edited.

Just noticed: The coordinator method under non-battles seems a bit too generous at 10 EXP per move used, so I've changed it.

HOLY FUDGENUGGETS!


Quibbloboy, we already voted on a system so therefor this topic and poll are void.

Post this system in a proper topic near....
None of the new members ever knew, nor did i.

This one seems to be more popular than his other one though, Near. Maybe this one should be implemented instead.

Yeah, I didn't know about any officially decided system either. I couldn't find the topic, and I seem to remember that it had ended in argument and confusion anyway. Besides, this has 5/5 positive votes.

Well, I guess its official. Actually, I guess it has been all day but there was a bit of confusion... ANYWAYS. Modmins, from now on you will add EXP to a Pokemon's EXP counter on its trainer's profile sheet thing. If it is an older app, you will add this:

Code:

[b]Exp:[/b]

underneath that Pokemon's Personality.

Darkrai, it was in the annoucements.

Oh.. I didnt really notice. But the new members didn't seem to, either. I thought the discussion ended up in confusion and troubles, and was not resolved..

The Other system had more votes regardless. It had 8. This topic is once again void. We, the Staff, ARE supposed to enforce these things.

Near, a couple of those votes were shadow voting on different accounts though...
Either way... 100% vs 70% is still a win...

Only 5 people voted. Frankly that could just be staff members and stuff. Quibbloboy. Your ideas go in the Staff Area first, then you get opinions and bring them to the members. I never even got to vote. 5 people got to choose.

Then move it to the staff section and reset the poll >.>

Near, even if you had voted it wouldn't have made any difference.
